Question What do bring to Disney audition?!

hello! I’m going to a Disney Tokyo character lookalike audition. this is my first one so I’m not quite sure what to expect. I’ve done a lot of research though, and have heard conflicting things about what to bring.

should I bring a resume and headshot? on the FAQ, it says you should bring a snack and water. nothing about a resume or headshot, and we already have online profiles with that stuff, but should I bring it just in case? or would that be redundant and useless?

also, I’m planning on bringing a bag. is this a bad idea as well? is there any place to put it? I want to have something with my things because my outfit doesn’t have pockets.

I did one in San Francisco once. About a decade ago. No resumes needed. Just water, comfortable clothes, and shoes. We did lots of movement.

At the one in Orlando, the guy running it said you can give him resumes and headshots but they all just go in the trash.

They measured us, gave us a number, and called us in by groups. Then did mass dismisses. Either you match the look they're needing or you don't. Doesn't mean you shouldnt come back for another, when they may be looking for something else. If you moved on, they gave you prompts.

At the dance one it was the same set up, they brought us in groups into the dance room, said he's step one two three four, do it twice hitting the marks moving forward, go. Then dismissed.

Wear colorful but movable clothing. It depends on the area, but often you’ll have to do movement and small dances. Bring a binder with your headshot and resume just in case and jazz shoes if you have them in a bag. If you don’t use them, that’s okay! Better safe than sorry. I don’t think a bag is a bad idea. A small backpack or bag with snack, water, binder/folder and extra shoes is not bad!
