After working at the Disneyland Resort for almost a month, I find myself becoming more comfortable not only with the camera, but with being a Disney Cast Member as well.
My average day involves clocking in, conditioning, roll call, and then shooting. Disney requires us to do stretches and conditioning before every shift, enabling us to avoid injury. As photographers, we are constantly moving to get the best angles. After stretching, we continue on to roll call and are informed of all the changes, events, and need to know information of the park about the upcoming day. Our “lead” lists our locations and instructs us to prep our cameras. With this process, we have a half an hour to be at our location.
Normally, our shifts are 8+ hours for 5 days a week. I love working because everyday I remind myself that I am able to go to Disneyland five days a week. “We work while others play…”
