Reality Roll Call

The Real World 22 is currently casting, and all over the country young adults  are getting their votes on the website, sending in their applications or going to the open calls. Tens of thousands will try to get on, only 7 will have a chance to get drunk and make out in the hot tub. What can you do to get noticed by the casting director of The Real World, that doesn’t involve taking off your clothes and doing something ridiculous? Reality Wanted interviewed Real World 22 casting director Damon Furberg, and here’s what he has to say about making a good casting tape:

That’s right kiddies, the beast has returned. For all of you that don’t know, the Real World casting site is a site where you sign up, make a profile, write some blogs, and make some videos in the hopes of impressing/entertaining people so that they vote for you. Its a long grueling and time consuming process, but the end result is that the winner of the competition gets the 7th spot in the Real World house.

The most recent(and only) winner of this competition was the lovable Greg “Pretyboy” Halstead, who became part of the Real World: Hollywood cast. This time the winner will be added to Season 22’s cast, so if you’re one of those people who went to an open call and didn’t get the call back you expected, take sometime and sign up on the casting site to prove the casting directors wrong by making it to the top 50!

First The Real World, now Top Chef. Brooklyn is becoming a prime spot for reality television. The upcoming season of the MTV’s The Real World is filming in Brooklyn, and according to Eater.com, contestants on Bravo’s Top Chef,  producers are looking for housing in the city for the season.

The word on the street is that the reality competition show will be taking place in the Williamsburg section of the bourough, although the shows reps will neither confirm or deny this information.

Project Runway is looking for a new producer, and reality show producer Bunim-Murray is at the top of a short list of prospects.

The fashion reality show, which will be moving from Bravo to Lifetime, has lost their current producer. Magical Elves will not be making the move to Lifetime due to project commitments stemming from a recently signed deal with NBC Universal.

Bunim-Murray, best known as the producers of the MTV reality dinosaur, The Real World, is also the producer of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, the dull Living Lohan, and the rediculously drama-filled Bad Girls Club, and America’s Psychic Challenge (no comment). On a much more commendable note, they also produced the groundbreaking Autism: The Musical for HBO.

I’m getting the feeling that lovers of the old, New York-based Runway should be very, very afraid.

Aneesa from MTV’s The Real World posted the info that she and some cast members from all the past season’s will be featured in Details magazine. Run out and pick up a copy, or if you’re too cheap for that, go to the website and read the article.
