Wow, I'm truly blessed to live 10 minutes away from Disneyland. Like I can see the fireworks from my living room window. I've been going to auditions since I graduated highschool. I've never been to a character host audition, so I have very high hopes. If I don't get in, that's okay. I'm going to apply for college and see if can get into the Disney college program.

Good luck good luck good luck!! You have such a great attitude! That's the thing with Disney / entertainment world in general, you've gotta be willing to hear "no" and keep trying! And highly recommend the DCP if working in a Disney park is your dream! It's definitely a great way to get your foot in the door with the company

Just a tip for anyone wanting to work for Disney in a "support" capacity (aka not an actual castmember, just more of a backstage role) like I did with Security, best way is to go in through the military or a police force. Disney is really good about hiring vets for critical support roles like security, maintenance, etc. and it's actually a really decent job with a ton of perks. I did it for about 5 years until I got a better offer to work security for an oil refinery.

I know from workers in Disney, they recommend doing your daily makeup, whatever that may be! If you're like me & wear different amounts depending on the day, just make your best features pop! For example maybe wear some mascara, blush, chapstick & some coverup :) And wear your hair off your face! That doesn't necessarily mean a ponytail, just make sure it's not in the way/distracting & neat

I just looked at the casting website and the star wars character descriptions were a range of 6’-6’3. Which I guess is tall ish but it’s not THAT tall. So idk. When I went Chewbacca seemed to have platform shoes so 🤷🏼‍♀️ but I also saw Darth Vader and Kylo ren and they seemed taller than 6’3. Guess if you’re really good they’ll stretch the height one way or the other

If you’re still interested... the new ride, Rise of the resistance (which is awesome, btw),has people working in the ride, as the first order. Those people ranged from maybe 5’6 to about like 7ft. It was crazy, but they where really tall. And the best part is, you get to boss people around all day. So that would be your best bet. Honestly, it seems just as fun.

*sigh* I wish I could go work at Disneyland. It nearly killed me when I found out about the auditions for Star Wars Land and I didn't have the funds to drive down there. And I would absolutely LOVE to be friends with Alice. I've had so many people tell me that I look like Alice and I've always loved the story... it would be amazing to hang out with Alice. I guess I'll just have to resign myself to the Disneybounds and being able to interact with the characters as a guest (which is pretty amazing in itself ^^ ). I've had some of the best interactions with the different cast members thanks to Disneybounds. lol

@@olivia_simone it would be so wonderful to design anything for Disney! I worked at all star music food court in the mornings. It was the best roll out of all my roommates. I worked really early and got off by 11am and could enjoy the parks all day! My roommates all worked in the evenings. It was so cool gaining a new perspective on the entertainment rolls. Like when I was prepping to move for the program, my family would say are you going to be mickey or any other character, kind of with their lip turned up in disgust. But when I moved back home after the program I was able to explain that it was like celebrity status meeting people that were close friends with some of the characters!

I worked at Build A Bear in downtown disney and would never have wanted to work at Disneyland because it seems super nerve wracking (I’m 27 so I’m too old anyways). 8:43 I live 5 minutes from there and it takes me 20 minutes to get to the park because of traffic.

That's so true! I don't think people in the past could have ever believed how large the population in SoCal would grow as well! I just learned that California is the most populated state in the country and I was like honestly, not surprised considering the SoCal and bay area traffic I've been in before lol

Like any role, this job also has requirements. For an accountant a requirement might be to work Excel, in merchandise the requirement is to be able to lift 40 pounds, and in Disney entertainment the cast members must be able to stand, kneel, and jump around for long periods of time, sign autographs and pose for photos, as well as be able to imitate the character!

Do they teach you how to autograph while working there? I’d love to work at Disney world. I am currently the mascot at my university! Maybe I could even go in as Merida or Wendy! I’m 5’2 and was wondering what are the height requirements for each princess? Ps. I love your videos btw, you post a lot that others seem kind of timid to talk about. Thanks!

Mitchie V there’s a whole class and training that face characters go through! And also classes for accents if needed. You are trained to be a fur character first, although you may never be friends with one. Most princesses are 5’4” but they make exceptions. Otherwise you’d be more the height of tinkerbell and her friends. I’m not sure what what the requirement is for Merida but it might be shorter cause she is technically 16.

I think tinker bell and Alice are shorter. I'm not sure about the other princesses' specific height requirements but I am pretty sure those two are shorter because one is a fairy and one is a child.

Thank you so much for showing this!!! It’s my dream to work as a performer. I look a lot like Moana and I would hope to be her, but right now, I’m only 5’1 and a half. My sister is 5’2 and I read that you need to be at least 5’3 to be Moana. If I get to 5’2 or 5’2 and a half, would Disney make exceptions for an inch off?

It really depends on the actors they have at that time! The height requirements are flexible and more so depend on how tall the current group of performers is.
