Follow the simple steps below to apply for the Big Brother auditions:
Step 1. Make a video of yourself and save it on your computer or mobile device before
starting your application.

Step 2. Submit your video for assessment.

Video Overview:

This is your casting video and must strictly adhere to the following guidelines:
Big Brother Naija Producers are looking for a dynamic group of individuals who are
articulate, interesting and exhibit enthusiasm for the project as well as a willingness to share
their most private thoughts in an open forum of strangers. This group of individuals, while
meeting the technical requirements of the program, must also have sufficient physical,
psychological, and mental capacity to endure approximately 100 days in a monitored house
under extraordinary conditions.

2. The maximum 3 minute video should end with you completing the sentence “I would
make a perfect housemate because…”
3. Video must contain your Name, E-mail and Phone Number clearly stated.
4. Avoid all forms of filters, special video effects, copyrighted music and background music.
Video Tips:
1. Be yourself! We want to get to know who you are as a person. How will your life
experience help you win Big Brother? How will you interact with the other housemates?
When describing yourself, remember to cite real life examples. We love a good story!
2. Making a casting video is not about putting together the best skit or wearing the wackiest
costumes. We’re looking for real people and we want to see the real you.
3. If you come from a unique region or area of the country, talk about where you’re from,
how it’s a part of your personality, or how it may help you do well on Big Brother. If you
have an interesting job, talk about your job and how those skills may help you win the show.
4. Hold camera steady.
5.If shooting indoors, make sure to shoot in a well lit room with lights in front of you to light
your face.
6. Shoot during the day so we can see you instead of trying to see you in the dark.
7. Speak loudly and clearly.
8. Find a relatively quiet area to shoot your video so ambient noises won’t distract from
what you’re saying.
9. Your video may be shown on a TV. Please shoot your video like you would see it on a TV.
Please shoot landscape (horizontal) and not portrait (vertical) style.
If you are selected for an interview, you will be advised so by the Producers shortly before
the interview is scheduled. If you are selected to participate in the final selection process,
you will be so advised by the Producers shortly before the final selection process is
scheduled.
Producers reserve the right to change the terms of the application and the production
schedule at any time. Producers reserve the right to change the eligibility requirements and
any other application rules in their sole discretion at any time with or without notice on a
specific, case-by-case basis or across the entire applicant pool. Producers also reserve the
right to not hold any participant applicant interviews, or to modify the manner in which they
conduct participant applicant interviews, or to not produce the program Big Brother at all.
