This website is regularly updated with Disney auditions! But first!.!.!.

1) Before you do anything you need to get TONS of experience/training!. Community theaters, school plays, voice classes, drama classes, dance classes!. The more experience/training the better!. You should also try to become a "Triple Threat"!. In today's society, you really have to be talented in all three in order to appear on TV/movies!.

2) Once you are skilled and have lots of experience you need to build your resume!. Refer to the website I gave you if you need help creating a resume!. You will also need a head shot, which is a natural picture of you that casting directors will see before anything!. Make sure these are professionally taken and updated whenever you change your look!. also, make sure you look like you in your picture!. If you normally have crazy curls don't straighten your hair for your picture (unless of course that's how you wear it everyday)!.

3) You will need an agent now that your resume and head shot are taken care of!. Nobody in Hollywood will look at you if you don't have an agent!. At the same time, don't depend on your agent to do everything for you!. They have millions of other people to take care of along with you!.

That's all basically but it is a long process that will take you much more time than it seems!.
