The video blinked on to see the image of a pink and blue stripped sweater covering the screen. The owner of said sweater backed up, grinning sheepishly into the camera as he adjusted his glasses. 
"I’m taking the red light as a sign that it’s working!" He laughed nervously, his hands clasped together as he played with his fingers. "My name is Rodney Ellis and I’m auditioning for the next season of Total Drama Tumblr. I think I should be able to join because I… I’m a really nice person! I know that doesn’t really count for a lot and hey, ‘nice guys finish last’ but I want to prove that wrong!" He then flashed a confident smile, hands moving to rest firmly on his hips. 
"I have a bunch of things about me I can name off that’ll be useful in this competition. I was a boy scout for seven years! And uhh… Well I run really fast! If you wanna know more, be sure to put me on the show!" 
Rodney gave a goofy grin and for the next several minutes the tape showed him struggling to get it shut off until the screen went blank.
