At the moment, we provide full agency service and we always act as the matchmaker between production and talent. We pride ourselves on knowing our talent so we can match them to the right work. When you let us know who you are looking for for your project, we will search our database for the best possible options. We will check their availability and send you options of suitable and available talent so that you can choose your favorites. We’ll act as your go-between up until the shoot day to ensure everything goes smoothly for you. You can find more about our team here.
?️ How much does it cost to hire an Extra, Actor or Model?
This will depend on the nature of the project, how the material will be used and where, how much performance is required from talent and how long the footage will be made available for. If you let us know a little bit about your project, we can provide you with a quote. We’ll always try our best to work within your budget.
?️ How do we pay the Talent?
Simple! After the shoot, our team will follow up with you to find out how it all went and how happy you were with our service and the talent provided. We will then invoice you for the talent fees and pay them directly ourselves through our company payroll.
