Auditions for new CBS show "Jingles"
Someone at CBS must have read my post on singing jingles:) Just got this emailed to me... another crazy reality show, but it could be an opportunity you might have some fun auditioning for it if you're into jingles. Here's the blurb they sent me:
CBS and Mark Burnett Productions have teamed up to find the greatest undiscovered marketing genius for a new show, "Jingles"! We are looking for teams of (preferably) 2-4 people to write and perform product jingles. A team could be anything from a brother/sister team to a singing comedy duo or a barbershop quartet!
Do you think you could use your quick mind, great sense of humor, and musical skills to wow Fortune 500 companies with your talent?
We are looking for fun, high energy performances mixed with a competitive spirit. Minimum age 13.
Please email Jonathan at jtanzman@markburnettprod.com for more information.
We will be casting in Nashville late May.

WARNING DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME STANDING IN LINE TO AUDITION FOR JINGLES BECAUSE I BELIEVE AFTER WHAT I SAW THAT IT IS ALL A PLOY TO BRING WRITERS OUT TO STOP THE WRITERS STRIKE. FIRST OF ALL THEY ENCOURAGE YOU TO GET THERE EARLY ONLY TO HAVE THEM DISCRIMINAT AGAINST YOU BY BRINGING ALL OF THE WRITER THAT ARE MEMBERS OF THE SONG WRITER ASSOCATION FIRST. THEN AFTER ABOUT 3-4 HOURS OR MORE, YOU ARE ALLOWED TO AUDITION BUT YOU REALLY HAVE NO CHANCE OF GETTING ON. THEN WHEN YOU GET TO THE AUDITION BEFORE YOU GO IN YOU ARE TOLD TO LIE TO EVERY ONE IF YOU GET ACCEPTED SO THAT THE REST OF THE PEOPLE IN LINE WILL NOT LEAVE. THEN THE ONES WHO DO NOT GET ACCPETED ARE LIED TO AND TOLD THAT THEY WILL BE CALLED THE NEXT DAY. THIS IS A DISGRACE FOR MARK BURNETT TO HIRE PEOPLE LIKE THIS TO REPRESENT HIS COMPANY!
IT IS VERY DISTRESSING FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME THAT HAVE BEEN IN NASHVILLE WRITING AND TRYING TO PURSUE HER DREAM. I AM THINKING ABOUT SUING FOR DISCRIMINATION.

Dear "student apt scam in boise idaho"...I am sorry for your experience, unfortunately it is common in these types of reality show auditions. However, I did see a positive comment on another site from an auditioner who enjoyed it. I do want to hear both the positive and negative about auditions I report about. Thanks for leaving your comment, and I wish you luck with your music.

My daughter, son & I performed after being called back in NYC. The staff was very courteous and made us feel like part of the team. The producers seemed enthusiastic about our performance & material. I don't know if we will hear back, but it was a very unique and valued experience, as we have never attended a casting call before.
Thanks & Good Luck !
