Of course, you’re familiar with Making the Band, the reality TV show that has developed a cult following 20+ years since it last aired on MTV.
Now, Viacom is rebooting Making the Band, and they’re casting in Atlanta. The idea behind the show is that Sean “Diddy” Combs and his team are once again trying to come up with the “ultimate new musical group.”
Making The Band Atlanta: Here’s How To Apply
Despite his name recognition, Diddy is not as involved as he was previously, but his three sons are up to the task.
Eligibility Requirements
Among other rules, here are some of the main requirements:
- You must be at least 18 years of age
- You must be a U.S. citizen, a legal permanent U.S. resident, or possess the appropriate U.S. employment authorization
- You are not currently a candidate for public office
- If chosen to move on, you will be required to reside for a while in Los Angeles (although the city may change)
- You are currently not a party to a music publishing contract or any obligation that would hinder endorsement, merchandising or promotion.

Atlanta has become a movie mecca in recent years and Georgia has been a favorite location for TV productions since the state instituted generous tax breaks for film companies that agree to shoot locally. Projects from CBS, NBC, HBO, BET and more are slated to shoot in the metro area in 2018-19 and the foreseeable future.
