Experience vlogging or creating digital content is preferred but not required, and at this time, fans must reside in the Orlando, Florida area to audition.
The Fanny Pack will live under the Discover Universal umbrella of digital series that includes The Ride Guys, which takes guests on an entertaining tour of top rides while sharing the key details they want to know; Checked-In, which provides a tour of all eight magnificently themed Universal hotels including lobbies, rooms, pools and amenities; and Dine and Ride, which takes viewers on a culinary quest of elevated theme park fare.
