Where do you send your resume to when trying to audition for disney channel?

I'm a teenager with dance, gymnastics, and singing background who dreams to be an actress. I don't have an agent nor do I know exactly how to approach Disney Channel. ThanksWhere do you send your resume to when trying to audition for disney channel?
You need to find a GREAT Talent Agent who has the clout to get you Disney Auditions.

You can ONLY get Disney Auditions through Talent Agents! Any other site that promises that is a SCAM!



To get an agent, you need to get GREAT headshots, a good resume, and training from the best. These are enough to get you a commercial agent at least. Getting a GOOD theatrical agent (Film/tv) takes longer. Most good theatrical agents won’t see you unless you’re SAG, have a polished resume, and a demo reel. Commercial agents are more lenient about that. What the best Commercial agents want to see on your resume are good commercial classes, improv, and cold reading.



You can get an agent multiple ways. Here are a few common ways:

-Mail in an unsealed manilla envelope with a CONCISE coverletter and headshot with the resume stapled on the back. If you have a demoreel include that too.

-Attend a showcase and impress them. By showcase I do not mean scammy conventions like IMTA, IPOP, Proscout, or Best New Talent. I mean legit ones like at Actor Connection, Reel pros, Network Studios, etc.

-Get a referral from a friend who is with the agency that you’re interested in



DON’T

-Email them unless they tell you to. IT’S UNPROFESSIONAL!

-Call unless they tell you to. ALSO UNPROFESSIONAL!

-Walk in and ask for a meeting. UNPROFESSIONAL THREE!

-Sign with them if they ask for upfront money, make you take new photos with THEIR photographer, or take THEIR classes. Agent’s ONLY make money when you do. Agents usually make 10% on film/tv and commercials and 20% on commercial print.



For the agent interview, be yourself. The agents want to know your personality. Create a conversation with him or her. If you're in the room for at least 45 minutes, they like you. Also, be prepared to have a monologue or two. Better yet, if you have a good scene you can ask the agent to read the other part with you.
