how to become a disney channel actor?

Same way you become an actor anywhere else --- you audition.  Are you in a geographic area that would lend itself to being involved in film and television? LA?  Vancouver?\n\nWatch the shows, find out who the casting directors are, and have your agency send them a headshot.  From there on out, it's all fate.\n\nGood luck.

Get some stage experience behind you. Join a local Community Theater, do school plays, get as much experience as you can. \nRemember Acting is a Craft, you have to apply yourself to your craft if you want to really be respected. If not, get an agent and do Soap Work.

I've been to their open call events.  They'll take you picture, interview you, let you cold read and then ask you to sign up.  They make by teaching kids to walk a runway and teach them overall skills that may assist them in getting into the business.  But I think they are production focused, namely their own production.  \n\nYou'll spend a lot of money to get what you want.  I feel a good acting coach and a manager will do better for you.  \n\nThe odds of getting famous in Hollywood are small for the average person it really comes down to you and how bad you want it for you or your child.  \n\nI have a cousin who is in many many commercials and some TV spots.  She simply made a decision to get to work.  She has done very well.  But she made the choice to get to work.  If you want your child to be in commercials then buy Variety Magazine and go to cattle calls for commercials and TV shows.  Talk to others you meet and you'll find credible management, coaching and help.  \n\nGet busy on buidling your career.  \n\nGood luck.\n\nKK

I am going to assume you live in LA and that you have been active in school theater or even community theater.  If you haven't done these things, do them as soon as possible.  Once you have done some things to put on your resume (theater work) then you should get some headshots done.  The next step is to register yourself with Central Extras casting and go to work on movie sets as an extra.  The pay sucks but you get a lot of on-set experience, especially if you pay attention to what's going on.\n\nthen comes the BIG step.  Post your headshot/resume on either Now Casting, LA casting or Actors Access (or all three if you can afford it).  Every day new casting calls are listed.  Submit yourself for parts you feel you would be strong at (don't submit for just anything, casting agents do have a memory and if they see you submitting for everything they will not look at you twice).  Go out on auditions.  These films will be for no pay but the experience is what you are after.  Get 4-5 films under your belt, get copies of the stuff you do, then hire an editor to put together a demo reel that is burned to VHS or DVD.\n\nThen and ONLY after you have done ALL of the above should you start pursuing an agent.  Mail a letter of introduction and your headshot ASKING them if they would like to meet you and see your demo.  Then wait.\n\nSorry if this sounds discouraging, but that's the business.  You have to eb able to face rejection every day.  Remember there are thousands of actors in Los Angeles all vying for the same thing you want.  You just have to be able to play the game better than anyone else.\n\nPS - If you don't live in LA, get involved with as much theater work as possible and seek out your local independent filmmakers.  Get cast in their films and use that for your demo...then move to LA.

Well, looking at your name, you want to be one of the actors there soo... \n\nTry to know when auditions will be open for a role sometime. I saw some new Wendy Wu show, that might work.\n\nStay updated, check on their website. \n\nAnd ask your parents to help you through this.\n\nGood luck!

You'll need to make a demo tape with you speaking in your normal voice, and then any character voices that you can do.  I would do some leg work and try to find some studios that do video production.  I'm not sure of LA, but Houston's ADV/Funimation studios do massive amounts of DVDs and are always accepting new talent.  Good luck!

i would sugest getting an agent first learning about the biz then being your own agent if you would like.\nto be an agent you must know where and when all the castings are and send people to the audtions. \nit would be a conflict of intrest to do both.\n\nmake sure you have your headshot/ comp card and your resume handy and ready to go

That is not the way to do it.  It is extremely tough and you do need to have a financial backing.  This is what you need to do.  First get head shots and resumes together.  Most actor's first set of resumes are made up.  If you have performed in high school shows you make it sound as if you performed for regional theatre.  If you have taken pictures at school you make it sound like you shot for a studio.  After you get your head shots then you need to do is pick up or subscribe to the Ross Reports.  This is a book that has literally 1000's of agents, casting agents, and directors listed for the entire business.  It comes out monthly.  You want to send your head shots to casting agents that you feel will meet your needs.  Also, subscribe to backstage.  This is the industry trade paper across the country.  Also they have a web site.  Casting notices are posted usually every Friday and auditions are on Wednesdays and Thursdays.  \n\nIf you are going to attend an audition bring your head shot along and be early.  Don't arrive late. You won't be seen.  Don't get mad if they turn you away. It is not what they are looking for. Just be seen is important.  \n\nAttend acting classes and voice classes.  If you go to California don't be disappointed if you are turned away at the gates of the studios.  There are literally hundreds of people trying to be an actor.  Same goes for NYC.  The other great areas for films is Chicago and Florida.

Take lessons, and practice, practice, practice. Get familiar with the classic techniques and adapt them to your own body (locking your abs, posture, breathing). Only practicing you'll discover what works better for you and get better. Also, put yourself out there: sing at parties, talent shows, and answer as many casting calls as you're able (maybe you'd like to try joining a talent agency)

Talk to your parents about it. Maybe do Beauty Pagents.  Search online for open casting calls. Use Google and type in "open casting calls models" and something should pop-up. It'd be good if u live near New York or LA or maybe another major city.

check out the shows website, whichever one you wish to be on.  most of them have instructions on how to be a contestant on them.\nsome require you just to answer some questions online, others require you to take some sort of test to prove your knowledge.  pre-testing before you can make it on the show.\nit can take smarts plus personality.  tv is entertainment after all.

You need an agent, a real agent, and make sure that their not just a scam. Because they'll steal money from you. Your agent will then, give you information on auditions, and were they can be found. Once you audition, you wait for a call back. But don't be upset if you don't get one, many famous people have gotten plenty of "No"s before they became famous. You should also have a job to fall back on, because it is a very hard business, and very, very few people make it.  If you really want it, you have to keep auditioning for things, and learn from your mistakes when you don't get a callback.
