How can I become a star on the Disney channel?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

M$1. Get an agent.
- They will need photos, a resume, and training. Talent agents for actors come in two main types theatrical (Television and Film) and commercial ( for commercials).
2. Have a Plan of Attack.
- Prove that you understand how valuable their time is.
3. The big trick comes the following week (give it a full week before calling in, and try to make the call on a Tuesday or Wednesday when they may be less frantic in the office).
4. Call the Better Business Bureau to see if any complaints have been made against the agency.
TIPS
- Be prepared and study your craft.
- Get professional 8 x 10 photos taken.
- Expect rejection and do not let it get you down or discourage you.
- Don't let what negative thoughts people tell you bring you down.
- Many people will discourage you that you will not be the one in the million but always follow your heart.
- Just type in "Disney Channel Auditions" at Google. It is the first website that comes up.
- Next you need to submit your photo and resume to Disney Channel shows. You can find the casting notices and audition information at Disney Channel Auditions.
WARNINGS
- Never pay an agent anything up front, they get paid after you work
- Never meet someone outside of a professional environment such as a studio or casting office.
- Your parents must accompany you at all times both on auditions and on set if your parents are not able have a legal guardian accompany you, as well as give you signed consent to work.
- Agents making their living by earning a percentage of each job they book for a model. Do not pay any up-front fees to an agent.
- If you're not happy with the number of auditions or bookings you are getting, set up an appointment with your agent and discuss what you can do to generate more jobs.
- If the agent lies to you, makes outrageous promises or asks for up-front money (to cover phone calls or mailing expenses on your behalf), keep looking. Legitimate agents do not ask for expense money.
- If you get rejected,don't cry, carry on looking!
If you want to become a Disney Channel Star go for it. Have a lot of confidence. Good luck!
