A Guide On How To Get On A Reality TV Show

By Helga Stokes


If you possess unique talent and aren't easily daunted by the public eye, you may get on a reality TV show. Most producers always seek fresh ideas on which to base their content. Others need participants for new seasons of pre-existing shows. Here is a guide on how to get on a reality TV show.

First, think carefully. Being on television is all about exposure. This means being exposed to everyone include colleagues, family members and neighbors. You therefore have to ensure that this is something you can handle. Remember that your worst moments will be brought up in detailed focus. If you are a private, sensitive or shy person, then this may not be suitable for you.

Then there's the reality. For starters, this is an artificial environment that is specifically set up for round-the-clock filming. Much of the content will also be scripted. On most shows, you will be expected to live here with very little privacy. There will also be no respite from your fellow participants. Challenging relationships and situations will be thrust at you relentlessly each day. If you're sure you can handle all this, then you may proceed to apply.

Before applying, learn all there is about the show. If it's brand new, read material that is already available about similarly-themed content, audience and time slot. For existing shows, get up to speed about the previous seasons. This will be much easier if you have watched it ceaselessly since it began. However, you'll also need to view it from a different perspective.

Look for auditions and casting calls. There are various ways through which you could do this. Look at the website and see if they're calling for other contestants/participants. You could also call the station and ask for advice about upcoming opportunities. You could also look at sites which collate casting calls and auditions.

When applying, be cautious and remember that details matter. If you violate the rules stipulated in the application form, it will not be considered. If the form asks for a photo, provide one in the way they've asked for it. Any portfolios, videos and references should also be attached in the stipulated manner.

To increase your chances of being considered, your presentation should be appealing. Display something that the producers would be interested in whether you're simply auditioning or providing a pitch with your application. This will help you catch the casters' attention. There are also other things which could increase your visibility.

One of this is providing your own unique factor or approaching the process from a distinct angle. Start an online campaign showcasing your talents using videos and photos. This should be in line with the show. However, avoid resorting to gimmicks as they rarely go well with the judges. Strike a balance between being bizarre and simply standing out. Anything which distracts from you will do just that and should thus be left out of the routine.

When assessing your suitability, maintain a good sense of realism. You don't have to audition for a show which demands the complete opposite of who you are. You should also have the qualifications needed as well as the necessary attributes. You can seek further advice on how to get on a reality TV show from people who have previously auditioned.
