You can shoot the video with all 5 people together in the same room, or shoot separate vignettes and then edit the footage together. When making your introduction, state something interesting about yourself. You can talk about your place within the family, your job, your hobbies, or anything else that makes you stand out. The idea is to be informative, but unique! Do your best to make yourself stand out. Consider playing a mock round of the game or using props. Be energetic, but also be yourselves. You need to let the casting directors know how enthusiastic your family is about being on the show!
Family Feud will reach out within the next 4 weeks to let you know if they’re interested in having you on to their show.
They may ask you background questions about where all of you went to school or what you do for work. Dress well, show up on time, and put your best foot forward!
