Research The Unequaled Actor Talent Agency

By Gilbert Ferguson

Do you need to find the best talent agency to help you when you've decided to really take your acting career or modeling career seriously?

Do the owners invest their industry talents and experience in evaluating, educating and promoting everyday people into the very best models and actors? Are you connected with all the best and top-notch production companies, casting directors and advertising companies that can utilize your best talents?

What Your Agency Should Have

As far as acting goes, owner and staff background must be quite extensive. Did they study for years at the Lee Strasberg Theater Institute and later work as an agent for a Talent in NYC and later become a head-booking agent for the commercial print and fashion divisions of a major Talent Agency? Have they also appeared in many films, TV commercials and theatrical productions?

The exciting thing is figuring out what kind of work you want to do, whether print ads, runway work, hand modeling, acting in television or film. Casting directors are always looking for talent to populate shows, like in Southern Florida, where USA Network is filming "Burn Notice" and Fox is producing "The Glades."

Have You Got the Look?

And should you doubt that you've got the right look for modeling or acting, fear not: Often the best face for a job is the one you see every day. Agencies know that being exotic is not necessarily the best bet, and that anyone, of all ages, professional and non, can be just what a casting director is looking for.

Make sure they're a commission-based agency with no registration fee. If you'd like to have the opportunity to work with them, it should be as simple as filling out their registration form and seeing if you're a good match. However, make sure you know that they expect you to have a positive mental attitude, a willingness to work long hours on casting calls without complaint and the ability to work flexible hours.
