Question
i live in brooklyn newyork how do i join disney channel

Answer
Hello Abdul. I suppose you mean as an actor. Well, you get a terrific resume, head shot and agent, you (or your parents if you are under 18), do lots and lots of networking, and it would probably be a good idea to move to LA.  But Disney Channel is not a club you can join. You have to be an extraordinarily good actor/singer/dancer with lots of expereince and all the things I mentioned plus pass an audition.  And of course, if you are under 18, your parents have to do it all for you. That's the only way it really happens.  God bless, Doc
