Rhino - 5-5'2
Mittens - 5'2-5'4
Bolt - 5'4-5'6

They are probably not going to allow the half inch rule on this one.

They come out into the parks today!!!!

Oh I hope they don't go anywhere anytime soon. I really want to meet them! Hopefully they will still be out in March.

Does anyone know what the height requirements are for the dancers (non-equity) in the parades/shows? For example, the High School Musical performers, Festival of the Lion King, Spectro butterflies/dragonflies, animators in the Magic Kingdom day parade, etc?

the "movers" ( disney does not call them dancers) can vary in height. HSM, FOLK, Animators have people in all height ranges. Spectro I'm not sure.

Most of it is based on your color code.

Most movers are around 5'6 and higher. The HSM show is a little different because they need more variety in height and everyone is supposed to look like they're in high school so your face is more important than your height.

I'm 5'7 and I've got butterflies/dragonflies and the animators on my skill list.

 

[Mrs.CptnJackSparrow]

its really just based on what they need.

you can be mouse height and be an animator in the day parade or even goofy height. I've seen both.

FOLK is usually around 5'6" but I've also met some in my height range. Pooh.

It depends on the role. In FotLK, a lot seem to be around 5'5 or so. But a lot of roles go by color code, not height.

The career start program is like the CP. But it is for people who have just graduated from HS.

Hi everyone! Please help me out with this question!

I am going to go to the character audition next Thursday, the 18th.

Is it possible to go with a headshot and resume? My resume would not include anything of value except for working at Tower of Terror and 2 months at Halloween Horror Nights.

Do many people go without a headshot and resume?

I would say that the majority do not have a headshot or resume - those are required for people auditioning to be equity.
