Question:

Landing a job with Disney Channel?

How do I land a job with disney channel itself? Like a show? I know that I have to get an agent, but what if I can't afford one?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: The costs involved in getting an agent are getting photos, printing your resumes, having them cut to 8x10, stapling them to the back of your headshot, printing a cover letter, manila envelopes, and postage. Other than that, you do not pay anything to get an agent. The agent gets a percentage oof your pay AFTER you get a job.

If you want to find a legitimate agent to represent you for commercials, TV & film go to Sag.org. Use the dropdown menu on the right labeled 'resources' and choose 'agent information'. On the next screen, on the left choose 'Find a SAG franchised agent' and follow the directions. You can look up agents all over the US, but there are higher concentrations where the work is (Los Angeles, NY, IL, FL, GA etc.)

Then you can send them your headshot, resume, and a cover letter stating that you are seeking representation and wait to see if they call you in for an interview.

Good luck
