Question Acting Attraction CM

So for all of you Cast Members out there who like to act, which would you say would be your choice of ride to work. The Jungle Cruise, or the Haunted Mansion? I know when applying for Attractions you truly don't have too much input on where you're placed. Though it's always nice to say where you'd like to be (if there's room there).

So back to the question: The Jungle Cruise, or the Haunted Mansion?

P.S. Do they let you use makeup?

Re: Acting Attraction CM

start in story book land canal boats, fast paced acting there! (seems like a lesser version of the jungle cruise, almost like a holding tank? )

Re: Acting Attraction CM

Both sound fun. I like being a little goofy so I would chose Jungle Cruise. My boyfriend and I last trip saw the FREAKIEST HM CM ever. You know when you're in your doom buggie and about to go and there's the one CM who just stands there? She was so frightening. We were terrified. So then we decided to figure out what we'd do if we worked there. Boy solo decided to walk with a limp and have a scrunched face and talk with a scary British accent... I'll admit I was frightened when he showed it to me.

Fun stuff!

Re: Acting Attraction CM

You should also take into account what's in the area. If you try for Jungle, you'll also end up potentially learning Steam Trains, Indy, Thunder, and (of course) Tiki and Opera House. They also work the parade route.
If you try for Mansion, you're in the area with Splash, Pooh, Pirates, rafts, Mark Twain and Columbia, and canoes. They also work Fantasmic!

Re: Acting Attraction CM

i would love to be on either attraction. there are pros working both of them. on the haunted mansion you can act creepy and not smile and play a little bit with the guests. on jungle cruise you get to play a corny and sarcastic skipper and that would be loads of fun as well. to bad i work on attractions were no acting is required. I love acting, im a theatre major for crying out load. i would love to work either of these attractions.

What attractions do you work? I'm sure you could do some "light" acting anywhere!

Not to mention that I'm not even sure HM is a new hire ride...

Would anyone be able to comment on Makeup? Allowed? Needs to be passed by costuming?

It is, a friend of mine just hired onto Mansion recently.

For women, Disney Look specifies that makeup "should be applied in a blended manner and in colors [sic] complementary to the skin tone". Basically don't have it stick out.

It doesn't specify anything for men, so unless you're covering up tatoos, I'm assuming that it's a no-no.

Re: Acting Attraction CM

What about for the HM. I've seen some that have the white face on, though I'm not sure if they're just part of Entertainment or not...

Maybe they are just pale...? Hehe, but I've see some white face HM CMs too, I have also been curious on how this works.
