1. Slide 1 · title

   Alone — Survive nature and yourself

2. Slide 2 · statement

   Remove the host, the vote and the crew — and you sell a stronger claim to be 'real'.

3. Slide 3 · points

   Format knowledge

   • Isolated participants, limited chosen gear
   • Self-documentation — no on-site crew
   • No voting; you tap out or are removed by medics
   • Last person standing wins
4. Slide 4 · statement

   Construction has moved off-screen — not disappeared. (Casting, rules and editing still shape the story)

5. Slide 5 · twocol

   The authenticity trade

   • Imperfect footage reads as truth
   • Intimacy with one person via video diary
   • Competence becomes the spectacle

   Hiding production can make selective editing MORE persuasive — viewers assume 'raw' means unmediated.

6. Slide 6 · twocol

   Its implied viewer: the witness

   • Admires competence
   • Learns and imagines enduring
   • Values emotional access and authenticity

   Identity offer: “I value real skill and honest endurance — but I can still question how suffering is edited.”

7. Slide 7 · question

   Discuss: Does self-filming make Alone more honest — or just better at hiding the edit?
