I wish I could have had the resources for this type of activity!  With 
respect to student embarrasment, one of the most important things students 
can learn is that their texts - written or spoken - should be formed so as 
to be presented in a public forum.  In terms of their actual "on-camera" 
performance, learning how to act is certainly a legitimate classroom goal.  
Go for it!
