I excited for this season 5. But I have to say I am so disappointed I was not chosen for my business. I was contacted twice by casting department and I thought I had a great chance. I sent in my video And follow up video they requested. I am anxious to see what is pitched and how producers passed on my business !
I will try again and hopefully have my opportunity on another season
