Big Brother 2011 casting begins this Saturday so get prepared if yo in the LA area and want to try out for a chance to win 1/2 a million on the best reality show. In a interview with Casting director Robyn Kass she reveals some hints on how to get on the show.
“People need to not prepare too much before they audition,”
“They shouldn’t be thinking, okay, what am I going to say in my two-minute monologue?”
“over the years she’s seen people over-audition by trying to invoke reality show jargon.”
“Stay away from the buzz words, We’d rather you tell us a story. In other words, instead of telling the casting crew how venal you are, be prepared to illustrate it.”
“We’ll have someone say, ‘I’m conniving, I’m backstabbing, I’m controversial, I’m manipulative.’ Then we’ll ask, ‘Tell us about a time you were manipulative,” and they’ll go, ‘uh…um…’ Stories are really great instead of just using the buzz words.”
If you’re just plain nice, that’s alright, too. The show needs a few white-hat characters for variety.
