BuzzFeed TikTok Live Series Open Casting Call

We’re casting for a new unscripted reality pilot centered around high-stakes home buying and major financial transitions.

This is a sizzle reel/proof-of-concept shoot for a new series currently in development.

We are looking for strong on-camera personalities to participate in structured real estate scenarios guided by a host.

We are currently producing a pilot and sizzle reel to present the series for development.
