well the audition process is like any other audition for the most part. (i sent my 5050 audition online, their company is called attrakt and theyve been in entertainment for a while but they never debut a group before) ive only been to a few live ones. fnc and hybe geffen. hybes had us sign a nda though (not that people honored it??? it was rlly long and scary basically saying they were making a tv program and if you get accepted ((which i didnt)) you cant tell the public what the production team tells you to do) theres a panel of judges. 3 for hybe 2 for fnc and they have groups of 5 singers or dancers come in. i auditioned for singing both times and basically when you arrive you have a check in sheet then you get a number sticker. after that the judges set up you mingle with other auditinees and they call in a group of singers then dancers then singers then dance again etc. hybe's judges were two guys one woman who was really sweet and tried so hard not to be intimidating always smiling and nodding. they also had a camera man and a boom mic operator, im guessing for that reality show they havent made yet. and you had to say your name, ethnicity, and age (i said my nationality like a idiot) and i added in the title of the song i was singing then i gave a lackluster audition (lmao) however i will add both companies let people go overtime for their auditions despite saying to prepare one verse and chorus. ANDDD both said you can only audition for either vocals or dance but the judges like people who do both, theyre usually the ones who get held back.
OMG HI THANK YOU!! oh ok so it's like a general style audition, that makes a lot of sense. also omg that nda??????? and specifically that you're not allowed to say anything about what the production team tell you to do?????????? like we all know the shows are scripted but still......
#kind of interesting that they didnt have a manager/pa etc sitting in to run time?#i would have assumed that they would since they probably were auditioning large groups of ppl and you don't want to get off track#but also i've never done/managed a general audition before so#ex for theatre auditions the panel is some variation of director and stage manager#(plus others like writer maybe producer etc it depends on the size of the production)#with the stage manager there to handle paperwork organization and scheduling#i guess these big general ones have staff running organization on the outside (obvs otherwise no one would get organized)#its probably just about a difference in scale/function of auditions#i wonder if they let everyone run overtime if that means that they plan for extra time for everyone so they dont get off schedule#unless they were super off schedule and you just didnt mention it#well i guess general auditions are usually day affairs so you kind of have to wait anyways..? idk#kpop questions#also don't beat yourself up about doing a lackluster audition!#according to my actor friends who have done big general ones theyre really hard to do well at#the group format is a rough one to audition in#text#answers#audition anon
