Would you like to star in our next fun video?

Calling all TEFLers around the world!

We're putting a new video idea together, it's just for fun, but we'd love as many people around the world to take part as possible!

The idea is that you're going to be passing an inflatable globe around the world, showing how far TEFL can take you. We'll start it at TEFL Towers here and pass it along! How far it goes is up to you all :)

We'll supply the inflatable globes and post it out to your address wherever you are.

All YOU have to do is:

  • Have someone film you catching the globe and passing it along (if possible, send us a clip of you catching it from someone off camera and throwing it along to someone the other side of you - I guess you'll need 3 helpers, but you can all take part and shoot each other individually!)

 

  • Make sure the video is of good quality and with an interesting background. A landmark would be amazing in the background but isn't vital.

 

  • When you catch the globe, point to where you are on it (good geography task hey?) and shout out where you are in the world. For example 'Thailand!' will suffice :) Feel free to freestyle at this point, the more variety the better!

 

  • Send the video clip to us via a DropBox link, there's no charge for an account.

 

That's it!

 

The idea is that we'll stitch the video together based on what we receive, so whether someone throws it left to right, down and up, we'll keep it nice and varied.

 

What do you get? Two things...

 

1. An inflatable globe from us for you to keep (you're welcome)

 

2. The exciting opportunity to take part and be in an i-to-i video!

 

If you're up for getting involved, drop a comment in the box below and your current location, as I'll need to order in the globes and I want to make sure I order enough/not too many that the office is awash with them!

 

Let me know by May 8th and I'll make the globe order then!

Who will get the globe spinning first then?

Hello everyone!


Has everyone who was supposed to receive a globe received theirs?


I'm excited to see your videos! Could you aim to have them across to the Dropbox by July 14th pretty please? I'll need to get the editing and sorts started you see :)


Thanks again, I've had a few clips already and I think it's going to look great!

Thanks again! This is going to be great!

Ok folks! I've ordered the globes :) there was a note on the site reminding users not to stick pins in the globes as markers and to maybe use a marker instead... thanks for that!


Would you like to email me (even if you see this after my note here, all are still welcome) at katie.baxter@i-to-i.com with your postal address so that I can start to post them out when the globes arrive? Looking forward to hearing from you!


Like I say, there are plenty of globes to go around so please still email me if you see this post in the next week or so :)
