Metro Atlanta couples looking to get discovered will have a golden opportunity soon. A major TV network is casting photogenic couples who aren’t married for a new project.
Participants must be between the ages of 22 and 35 (bonus points if you just LOOK that age-range!). The requirements are that the couple be in a relationship, and there is something about their union that one of their families doesn’t approve of.
This project will not spotlight one couple, but several will make the cut, so whoever is chosen can feel free to still live their daily lives. People who submit will need to be available for a Skype interview in the near future. Ideal scenario is where a parent is willing to be involved, too.
PAY: ~8 episodes with about a few grand for each episode.
Feel free to reach out directly to Lenora@LenoraClaire.com with questions. -
