personality
Although Alt seem pretty sociable on screen, he's a rather reserved person in reality. It's rare for him to approach strangers or even start a conversation with his friends. This shyness comes off as arrogance sometimes and he garners negative attention because of this. However, he's quite oblivious so he never realise the haters. Not that he would mind if he knew as he's open minded and sees no harm in people having their own opinions. Sometimes, his flexible mind allows for him to be gullible, believing lies that his friends made up and falling for pranks easily but the pranks never soured any of his relationships because he either forgets or just forgives them. Nonetheless, his friends never allow anyone else to pick on him. Since Alt is innocent, unwary and harmless, his circle of friends tend to be an over protective bunch. Even if they weren't protective towards other people, they found themselves feeling protective towards Alt. That being said, his innocent side seems to disappear in front of the camera. Some may say he's two faced but he prefer to call it as being professional. His passion for acting allows him to try and fit his role as best as possible. Be it a pitiful beggar or a snobbish rich man, his determination pays off after long days of practice. Although the potrayal ends in a few shoots and he's back to being the naive all-forgiving fool.
 
background
Alt's family isn't quite the ordinary family. His father is a small scale director and his mother an unpopular actress. As the only child, he was often bought to movie sets because there were no one at home to take care of him. He basically grew up in the film set. Not to mention his initials spell out 'ACT'. His potential was first realised when his father and his crew decided to cast 6 year old Alt in one of their short films. However, he was unable to join any more films when he started school. He was neither an intelligent nor strong child so the teachers and students payed no special attention to him. Having grown up pampered by strangers, Alt felt very lonely at school. It was only when the children had to act out a short skit that people started to notice Alt. He gained a lot of friends because of his passionate acting. As their common interest was acting, they decided to film something which ultimately ended up in YouTube when Alt decided to share his works with the world without the fees that came with sending his films to cinemas.

relations
- Father : Alt's father was the one who led him to love films. when they were young, they would watch films together and analyse them, making Alt realise the art of conveying a story through acting.

- Mother : Alt's mother is a strict no-nonsense kind of woman. At first, she didn't like that Alt is vying for the same kind of career as her since being an actress was very difficult for her but she grew supportive after seeing his passion for acting. However, she still wants Alt to choose a more sustainable career as hers was a real disappointment.

- Aron Lee : Aron is his first and very best friend. He is in almost every video with Alt and just loves pulling pranks on him. He's the mischevious mood maker of the team, lightening up the mood and making filming even more enjoyable. He also has his own YouTube channel which contains many more bloopers.

 love interest
Just like his innocent personality, his ideal love is kind of innocent too. he just wished for someone to be there for him to double the joy and half the sadness. That being said, his idea of love is very vague as he have never dated before. So he'll probably need someone that can lead him along. Perhaps an outgoing and friendly induvidual who can balance out his reserved nature. Someone who could protect his unknowing self from imminent threats would be good too. It doesn't matter if the person is too overprotective either because he'd rather be protected than neglected. That being said, he may seem to be negliant of his love interest because he's unsure how to properly convey his feelings but it's obvious to the others that he's smitten with his love interest. Maybe a Vlogger or a Prankster could keep his inattentive mind from wandering away from reality.

comments
I didn't mention his parent's names because I don't know who to put hahaha, but i guess their names won't really get mentioned... I just cheated and put a tumblr tag link for Merlin Watts lol. If you're using him, i could compile a gallery but if not, i hope you don't mind xD. Btw, I just love your applyfics! ♡♡♡
 
suggestions
- the participants having to film and upload a video within a day, the amount of views garnered being their score.
- the participants having to do all the things (vlogging, gaming, etc) for a challenge to see how adaptable they are.
-
the participants living in a dorm together and drama ensues
 
password
The vloggers: he didn't see why people would want to know about a stranger's life.
(Maybe if Alt's love interest is a vlogger, she/he can change his mind)
