Acing Your Contestant Audition
Answer questions clearly when a producer interviews you. The producers will interview everyone in line after the studio lot doors have opened. The producers ask for your name, where you’re from, and your occupation. It is best to answer the questions sincerely and eagerly, with a touch of humor. This seemingly casual interview is where the producers will decide who will appear on the show.
Enunciate your words and speak up. Those in line around you will likely be talking or even cheering. Make sure the producer can hear every word you say. Don’t ramble! If you ramble on when asked a simple question, the producers are likely to think you’d do that on-air when the host asks you a question.
Moreover, match the energy of the producer with your answer. Unless you’re first in line, watch the producers’ body language and listen for their tone as they interview other contestants. Try to match their excitement and enthusiasm without exceeding it. The producers are looking for just the right amount of energy, so mimic them.
Closing Tips To Get Chosen
Don’t try too hard to be favorable with the producers. Even if you’re super-confident about your chances of being selected or winning, don’t appear too calculating or arrogant. Authenticity is key. Also, sharing a sob story with the producers is highly unlikely to move them. The producers are prohibited from accepting even a business card, so don’t give them anything that could be perceived as a bribe – you’ll probably instantly be declined your shot.
Cheer loudly and passionately when the show opens. After your interview, you’ll be led into the studio audience, after which the show will soon start. Everyone will begin cheering. Above all, join in! The producers watch audience reactions as the show starts, and therefore, they make their final contestant decisions based on crowd participation.
First of all, don’t go overboard and cheer too obnoxiously. Jumping up and down, shouting “Woo!” and pumping your fists are no-nos. However, the producers are looking for people who can show their excitement but can compose themselves enough to participate if they are picked as contestants. For instance, keep in mind how previous contestants cheered during the show’s opening and emulate them.
