How Do I Get My Daughter on Disney Channel?

Helping a child make an appearance on the Disney channel can be achieved in a variety of ways. Simply having a brief flash on TV as an audience member is far easier to do than getting your daughter her own TV show. The Disney channel wants actresses who are positive, enthusiastic and entertaining to watch. The more skills and abilities the girl has, the more likely she will be given an opportunity. For example, a girl with acting experience and a good singing voice is more likely to have a chance.

Instructions

    • 1

      Get experience and acquire some skills. The Disney channel is a international media brand. Have your daughter try acting in a local kids' theater or in more accessible local productions to get some experience and a taste of acting. Learning some skills such as singing, dance or stage fighting will come in handy and look good on a resume.

      Prepare a reel and package. Having some professional head shots and a demo reel are vital for attracting interest.

      Watch shows on the Disney channel and look for the production companies behind the shows. Disney does not produce all the content on their channels alone. Make a list of the production companies associated with the shows. Send out a letter of inquiry along with the head shots and demo reel to these production companies.

      Approach a talent agent who works with child actors. Send the agent the girl's head shot and demo reel and, if possible, have your daughter meet the agent. An agent will help the girl find work by using an existing network of contacts.

      Go to some Disney channel show tapings. By actually being on set, your daughter may have a chance to meet the producers of the show. If they like her, they may cast her.
