Yes – we are more than happy to be your collaborator on budgeting out a project for your bid as long as we can work with you on it once you get approval! Feel free to email us and share the details of the project and we will do our best to help you.

I am an actor or non-actor who wants to be considered for projects! Can you be my agent? Should I email you my information?

If you are interested in being considered for our projects, please add yourself to our database by filling out THIS FORM. We are not a talent agency and we do not represent talent. This form simply opts you in to receiving casting notices for projects that we have been directly hired to cast. Talent who is booked on one of our projects does NOT owe us any money from their payment as we are paid an overall casting budget by the production company. Please use the link above rather than emailing us any of your materials.
