the character attendant that was with Mickey was phenomenal and my biggest regret was not giving her a hug!!!! I was overwhelmed with happiness and was in the moment but when i left, i didn't get to give the character attendant a hug. They're awesome. Thank you for the videos, Jennifer!!
thank you for remembering the character attendants! yes! :D thank you for watching! I'm glad you felt me! xo
I'm in a musical and we're going out to a public event to promote in character so I've been watching your videos!!!
Best of luck to you!!! how awesome! lemme know how it goes if you get a chance! :D
It went well! I'm not the best at improv tho:D There was this one booth at where we were that had my character on it and it was awesome lol!!!
Jennifer, you are honestly one of the sweetest people on RUclips. I've interacted with you on Instagram recently, and you were always so polite, respectful, and kind. I mean, you really are a princess! So refreshing to see on RUclips in what seems like an industry full of egos. Thank you for the great content you create and for being a real class act. ❤️
I'm literally melting over here reading this comments from such nice people like you---I have the best subscribers/viewers, seriously, wow. I'm so thankful. thank you so, so much for watching and commenting! means a lot to me!
I just want to say I really enjoy your videos. You have such a soothing voice and I could honestly listen to you talk about anything! :)
I'm watching these ahead of time because I am auditioning to Walt Disney World NEXT YEAR! :D So anxious but excited at the same time. It is one of my biggest dreams and I am never EVER giving up on it.
MondlerForever123 same here!!! So excited!!
Are you there now how is it
Your channel has been so helpful to me lately! Thank you for providing so much information and encouragement. I'll be attending my first Disney World look-alike audition tomorrow and thanks to you, I feel more confident and prepared going into it! :) you're the best!
+Hope Rankin I'm so glad to hear this! Thanks for commenting! I hope your audition went well!! If there's anything else I can do, please don't hesitate to comment/ message me! I appreciate it so much!! Hugs to you!!
Great video as always! Watching your content makes me so happy and really helps me to relax if I'm feeling stressed! Thank you for all the hard work you put into your channel!
omigosh----your comment just made my afternoon, what an honor! thank you so, so much! xo
Taking dance, improv, and commercial acting classes! This is the best advice! I always thought when I was younger that the signatures were more important than they were, and totally didn't consider that improv and dance is huge. Thank you so much for correcting all of our misconceptions and giving us the advice on how to put our best feet forward!
I am about to take acting and dance classes and I know I'll make it on the first try!
love your videos!! so interesting to hear what it's like to work in a disney park! love u💞
thanks so much for watching and this sweet comment! Love you too! made me smile! :D
All right, I'm binge watching your videos! You're so amazing, seriously. Don't be to harsh on yourself, I'm sure you were a precious diamond Jasmine/Pocahontas with your grace and so much love about them! Also, thanks for your always wise and kind words and tips about encouragement and girl power. I have to say Ariana is a lucky girl growing up with such a beautiful role model like you 💖 for me, I just love your honesty and you being true to us. I won't ever be a princess (was born at the wrong country, too old, not good looking etc) but it is a joy to listen to your advice to young people out there. Keep up the good work and thanks for being you, spreading so much pixie dust! ☄
Geórgia Alice Germer omigosh, your comment just warmed my heart so, so much! I can't even begin! Thank you for being so positive and encouraging! Also so sweet.. I don't have all the words! Thank you! Thank you so much for watching and I wish I could do more! Hugs to you! 💕💕😄
Your videos are so great, Jennifer! I love how you talk about many different aspects of your time at Disney, it's all so interesting to me! A question I've wondered is did you personally like to come up with any of your character's little stories (or responses to tricky questions guests might ask) ahead of time through studying the character in your guides and watching the films, or was a majority of it a lot of improv on the spot? I love your advice for acting courses at the end, I'll definitely be looking into commercial acting too since I had never really considered it before! (as most of my work is onstage) Thanks for sharing!
You're so gorgeous and one of my favorite youtubers! I love hearing about Disney.
+Blue Rew omigoodness! So sweet! Thank you so much for this comment, that's such an honor! I'm glad you enjoy Disney! 😄💕
your videos are all i have watched for the past few days! i live very far from orlando but i love disney world and have always wanted to know what you princesses did to prepare. my question is what were some of your responses (improv wise) to curious guests? i love your videos and thank you for being to upfront and honest on things a lot of your subscribers are curious about!
Your purity, kindness, and love warms my heart! I just want to say that God loves you and your pure heart! He also is proud of you as a mom!
hi Jen I love ur videos they helped me get my job at Disney
AWWW YAY! I'm so glad!! that is what it's all about on my channel! I always love hearing from people who have seen my vids & also work at Disney! best wishes to you in all that you do! xo
My friend is a character attendant! She gets put on fur shifts more often than face, and I think the only face characters she works with are Star Wars and Guardians/Moana (any at Hollywood Studios, her home park). She has the best stories, though! She started on the DCP and then got hired full time!
You have natural grace, Jennifer! I notice that about snow white's friend when she is on, too (I can't remember her name!!). I love you channel! :)
You look stunning, Jennifer.❤️
I love how similar the training process is in Florida and Paris! Everything you mentioned is basically the same here in Paris. I'm doing an internal audition for Tokyo in two weeks so hopefully I'll be able to experience all of this iover there as well and see if it's the same wordwide!
+Denise Joanne that's so amazing, thank you for sharing that... it's especially interesting because a lot of my information is from the early 2000s! Amazing! Thanks for watching and commenting!! 💕
Denise!! Wishing you the best on your Tokyo audition, and say hi to your lovely princess pals in Paris for me!
Awhile ago you did a makeup tutorial on Rapunzel, do you think you could do one on Anna from Frozen or even Elsa❤️ I love your videos and I plan on doing the DCP in a couple years and you've been such a big help thank you so much🤗
I may have done a little happy dance when I saw you posted this 😂... I love these videos, keep it up!!
Hi Jen, thank you for taking the time to answer our questions, and doing it honestly too. You really inspire me to be my best and your videos always help me feel better. By the way... How do you manage to look so beautiful in every video ?! 😄❤ Lots of love for you and your little ones ❤
Also, I have to ask- Would you recommend girls (and guys duh 😄) to audition for a role ? I have heard that working as a character sounds like a wonderful thing but it also has its difficult parts, so having worked there, do you recommend auditioning ?.... And have you made a video explaining your audition and the steps in detail by any chance ? , like from when you walked in to when you got the job, I would love to know your thought and feelings through all of it ❤❤
NERDYBIRDIE 001 You are so very right, it's better to try even if I don't get it than to regret not knowing 😄 I will certainly look for more info, thanks
I don't know if you've seen other videos, but don't forget: some people audition more than once before finally getting a position.
Purple Melody (ColumineMiette) I will not 😆 thanks
Hi Jen! Thank you so much for the wonderful video! I love hearing about your experiences! I was wondering, after a long time did playing jasmine just become second nature? Could you just act like her without thinking about it? also, did your cheeks ever hurt from smiling so much? haha. Thanks again 💕
I’d totally do Fur for the sheer anonymity of it. Not like I’d be all mean, I’d be a hella cool Goofy or Pluto or a sad Daisy or Mickey.
Yaaaaasss! Own that!!!!
@@OakesPrincess I think I’d make people cry or get termed because I don’t fit their culture and climate. Especially the sad Daisy. Nothing vulgar but total anonymity.
@@MistressGlowWorm I dunno.. the Disney culture is changing. They're doing things I never thought I'd see.. lol, like tattoos.. or piercings. Disney has totally relaxed with that, last I heard, anyway. Best wishes no matter what you do. xo
You look so pretty, makeup is on point
+Laura ahhh thanks for the sweet message! Hugs to you!
If you don't make the cut in an audition and there's one like really soon after that can you go,or after you audition once do you have to wait awhile? Thank you so much and I love your videos!!!!!!!
I think I might have taken a picture with you or someone that looks like you when I was at Disney yearss ago
i took acting class in high school back in day i loved it i took little in collage as well for voices i can go wicked witch from wizard of 0z for fun when i dress as snow white my grodmother calls me snow black i try do her voice as well my teenage night as me what kind voice is that i said snow white
Do you think that if your teeth aren't perfectly straight (but still are relatively), that it could effect casting?
i have seen a vlog that states that Disney princesses must not tell a soul that they work as a Disney princess. Is that true?
Haha i'm sorry that was me i wasn't wording it right. but yeah i just meant what was the character attendant training like in your point of view if you saw any. i'm applying to be one and was just curious what to expect in training if i got the job
I would assume that good customer service skills are really important. I work in customer service (sort of) and you get a lot of nice people and also not-so-nice ones, and you have to toe the line between following policies and also keeping guests happy. It's hard, but there are also a lot of pros from what I've read about the position and seen on youtube (videos like this one)
Silly question, since they preferred you to be a dancer, was it a specific kind of dance?
I watched one of your q&a videos after leaving this comment so I know the answer now; Ballet! Makes a lot of sense actually
Hi Jen! I was wondering if characters (fur and face) were allowed to go on rides with guests. Thanks
Bryan Baik i think i remember she said you could for a make a wish program but i'm not sure
Bryan Baik a few years ago when I visited WDW a lot, Aladdin and Jasmine rode the magic carpets with a lucky guest every morning before their meeting schedule for the day.
Bryan Baik They are allowed to sometimes. It depends on the situation, especially if the ride has to do with that specific character’s story. I know the princesses can sometimes be seen riding the carousel and I’ve also seen pictures of characters on the Mad Tea Party at Tokyo Disneyland. This doesn’t happen all the time but when it does it’s a real magical treat!
Hi Jennifer! I have a question. As a face character, did you practice how to response instantaneously? Like how did you manage to dodge inappropriate questions?
We did practice! During training, we were given a list of possible "difficult" questions people might ask and how to reply... people tended to be very respectful, is how my experience was. The only inappropriate comments that truly stood out to me in all the years were, "SAVAGE!!!" when I was Pocahontas at Magic Kingdom, which, I wasn't prepared for. It was from a group of teenage guys, so, I did my best not to take it too seriously but honestly, I had to hold back tears. Disney characters NEVER get mad, that's in the training rules, but I felt sad. Reading old historic persons though, like David Thoreau's Walton, he was an abolitionist and admired the native Americans a lot, yet he too referred to them as savages. I think it was a sign of the times, it's not p.c. today, but, anyway, there it is. Another inappropriate comment was "poca- hot-@$$" & things like "sexual" in reference to the Jasmine costume but Aladdin always came to my rescue and I was never alone. I think jasmine doesn't have Aladdin today and her costume is a lot more modest, which fixes a lot of would be comments. Also, Pocahontas isn't really out anymore, or she hasn't been, since I've been to the parks these past couple years. Hope that answers your question! Xo happy new year!
Jennifer, I've been watching your videos for quite long time and this is my 2 or 3rd time asking you questions, but I really appreciate your thorough response. I didn't know they have a list of difficult questions! That's good to know :) I'm from Japan and I came to the US to pursue my performer dream (my dream Princess is Mulan!) for Disney. Since English is my 2nd language, I am not good at response instantaneously... so it's good to know that they'll give you a list. Ugh, sounds like teenage boys are the worst. I heard from other girl who was Pocahontas that someone once said to her "I've visited your tomb"! . Honestly if I was in her situation, I think I'll froze. 😅 Btw, I'll be start working at WDW in next Feb. I'm sure it'll take some times to actually become Mulan (bc of my English), but when it happens, I really want to invite your family(and Angela 😘) to WDW- and meet her. 💚 Your videos always make me exicted, and your answers help me a lot! Happy New Year!
@@smiley5825 I'm learning 日本語！One of my friends is from 日本... ありがとうございます for watching my channel! I hope you achieve your dream! I am using Duolingo to learn. I hope to one day make a video about learning 日本語 but I want to improve. Right now I only say things like, "友達と勉強します"
@@smiley5825 Mulan is a wonderful princess. I liked her makeup and dress. Maybe one day Disney can make a film inspired by a classic story from 日本... we shall see. 🤷♀️🤗
Did you watch Aladdin a lot?
I had to close a line for Mary Poppins and Bert. That's hard as a guest to tell people that you are the last person. I heard so many stories on why they should be the end. Like Bert wasn't going to remember I was the end!
I love your videos! They are so helpful and entertaining! I was wondering if my religion would make it too difficult to try out. I do not work on Sundays, and I wouldn't be able to wear some of the more revealing costumes. Should I still consider trying out, or is it not worth it? Thanks so much, you are amazing! 💕
I've always wanted to be a princess at a Disney Park, but I've had to come to terms with the fact that I'm too short, (I'm around 5'1") and it's probably never going to happen. However, it won't stop me from dressing like a princess. I really want to be Belle for Halloween this year so I can walk around at Halloween events meeting kids in character. I've got acting experience, and I've got Belle's signature down. haha. My biggest problem is finding a nice looking costume for a reasonable price. Most of the higher quality, low price adult costumes are short or inappropriate which is not the look I'm going for. I've considered buying one of the short costumes, and trying to add length myself. Do you have any tips for finding a costume, and for continuously staying in character?
I was 5'1 3 months ago and now I'm nearly 5'3 (I'm 18) Don't give up hope, you might increase height!
I'm around 5'1" too, haha. I had that same problem finding a decent Rapunzel dress (this was a few years ago when the market was not flooded with good dresses)
I wouldn't recommend buying a short dress and adding length because it may be hard to match the dress fabric (texture and color) to the fabrics in the fabric store. If you know how to sew, I would actually recommend making it yourself. There are a few tutorials online. A lot of dresses on etsy (though absolutely gorgeous) are extremely expensive. (Not without merit, but still.)
I just had an idea. Not sure if this would work, but you could try finding a goodwill wedding dress base, dye it with fabric dye, and modify it to make it closer to Belle. I've seen a lot with good bell shapes in resale shops. Some may need hoop skirts.
As for staying in character, I know I'm not Jennifer, but I can put in my own two cents: practice, practice, practice! And of course, re-watch the movie.
Thank you guys. I was in a show recently where I had to dye a costume. It was originally black, and I made it pink. I'm sure light colored dresses are easier to find. I might try that. My local professional theatre is doing a costume sale soon, so I'll probably check that out too. Also, any suggestions for reasonably priced, decent quality wigs? I have blonde hair, and clearly, Belle is not blonde. Haha.
Hannah Livingston Check Etsy.com! Bet u can find some, may cost big $$$$ but bet I'll find something. With ur height maybe Alice, Wendy would be available for you to be? Look into it! Best of luck to u!
Catherine Adler yeah most good dresses on etsy are at least $100.
why is this video upside down?
Oh no! I think it's something to do with RUclips! I remember a glitch back in the day! Could've been my formatting didn't work. I am honestly not sure, so sad!
