Being a cast member

[Abs0n]

Hello everyone :wave:

Sorry in advance if this has been posted in the wrong section or isn't a usual topic - I'm a bit new to this! :veryconfu


I may have the opportunity later in the year to move to Paris and work as a cast member in the parades and as a costume character at Disneyland Paris. I've been to WDW twice when I was younger and loved the experience, but I've never been to the Paris resort.

I was wondering how people compare their experiences with cast members between the two resorts? I'm only 18, so the thought of moving to a new country where i'm not fluent in the language is terrifying, but the possibility of working for Disney makes it all worth it!

Also, what's the atmosphere like at DLP? I've heard from some people that it's very different from Orlando, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.


Ok sorry for the waffling! Basically, any little bits of information or advice that you could offer about working at Disneyland Paris (or the resort in general) would be much appreciated!

Thank-you

My friends best mate works at DLRP in a similar role and has for maybe a year and a half now? From what I understand she really, really enjoys it and the people she works with.

Hi
WDW Paris is one of my favorite place for weeken

Disneyland and Disneyland Paris
A feature only in Disneyland and the Phantom Manor, the room is, in fact, an elevator with no ceiling. The room is being lowered slowly to give the illusion that the room itself is stretching. This brings the guests down to where the ride begins, below ground level. This elevator effect was necessary to lower the guests below the level of the park-circling railroad at Disneyland. The actual ride building of this attraction is located outside of the berm surrounding the park, and the Disney Imagineers developed this mechanism to lower the guests to the gallery leading to the actual ride building.
