Step 1
Find reality TV show auditions. If you have a specific show in mind, check the website of the program's network. Prerecorded shows like Survivor and The Bachelor start casting for the next season at the end of each season. Network websites have links and information about auditions for all of their reality shows.
-
Step 2
Read all the rules, regulations and qualifications for applicants before you audition. Most reality TV shows make you sign waivers that free the network of any liability. If you are chosen to appear on the show, it's required to take physicals and undergo emotional and psychological evaluations. For shows that showcase talents like American Idol or American Inventor, you must read exactly what creative or product rights the producers receive if you win.
-
Step 3
Prepare for the audition. Some TV shows ask you to send a video of yourself before a face-to-face audition. Review past seasons and see what type of people the show picks. Practice and plan the tape so you grab the producer's attention. Other programs hold open auditions in specific cities on certain dates. Plan on being at the audition for 12 to 14 hours.
-
Step 4
Dress to impress the judges. Dressing wildly may grab their attention, but in most cases it just distracts the judges.
-
Step 5
Practice your presentation or talent before you arrive for the audition. Ask friends and family watch you perform and then give criticisms or comments.
-
Step 6
Have an upbeat, fun attitude in both taped and live auditions. Producers and judges of reality TV shows look for people the public enjoys watching and will become invested in.
-
Step 7
Audition for the show. Send the tape or go to the open auditions. Take snacks and water to open auditions. Bring any costumes or props in a bag. You can change into costume in the waiting room.
