So, is joining a child talent agency worth it? Weighing up the pros and cons is different for different people. From considering if your child is ready (we’ll be able to tell!) to the trill of seeing them in an ad and the fun they can have with mum and dad on set (we offer free family profiles), increased confidence and self-esteem to how much does it cost and what if we don’t get anything out of it?
Setting up your child profile listing with our agency still costs the same as 2015. Yep, we haven’t increased our prices in over eight years making use of technological advances and streamlining processes to accommodate post-COVID changes in how the industry works, whilst still offering full suit representation.

She is the point-of-contact who offers placement to the lucky future stars after consultation with the ‘castings team’ and checking the availability of categories.
As a bright and happy addition to our Melbourne Head Office, Asha spends her days delivering good news to talent, who are successful in joining our books and a supportive voice for those who are not offered a placement on their application.
