How to Prepare for a Disney Movie Audition

The entertainment industry is very cut throat. And even though Disney is a kids’ channel, it is not an exception. For your child to make a good impression at a Disney movie audition, they cannot depend on just how cute they are and their talent alone. They need to also be professional and stand out from the thousands of other young aspiring actors. Here are a few tips that should help you prepare your child for that Disney movie audition.

The first thing you will need to do is get a professional photographer to take some pictures of your child. These pictures are referred to as headshots and they are part of your child’s resume. Professionally done headshots may prove to be a tad expensive but you need to look at it as an investment in your child’s career. The headshots are usually left with the casting directors so you may want to have digital copies that you can keep printing whenever your child has audition. Keep in mind that children grow up do you may have to have new headshots taken of your child every other year. If your child is a toddler, this could end up being as frequent as every other six months. You will also have to draw up a resume for your child. Of course, nobody expects this resume to have tons of experience on it. Instead, it is used to list your child’s talents and the things that make them unique.

The second thing you should do is hire an agent for your child. Agents usually charge a percentage of your child’s earning. Others may require you to pay them a retainer fee for them to represent your child. You may also consider this expensive but keep in mind that the agent is the person who will schedule auditions and acting jobs for your child. Having an agent will also make it easier when you get into negotiations with the Disney executives if your child gets selected from the audition.

By this time, your child should have memorized all the lines that they were sent for the audition. If he movie audition did not send your child some sides, then you will have to prepare a short monologue that will portray your child’s talent. Make sure the piece is age appropriate. It should also incorporate some emotion so that the casting directors can see how versatile an actor your child is. Practice these lines with your child daily until they deliver them flawlessly. Remember you never know if you will get another opportunity to audition for Disney so your child should make the most of it.

Lastly, ensure that you make prior transport arrangements for the day of your child’s casting call. The rule of thumb is to always arrive earlier than the casting call time your child has been given. Arriving thirty minutes earlier will give your child enough time to read through their lines once more and to get over last minute jitters.
