FAQ

What does an agent do?

Simply put, the agent’s job is to submit a talent’s photo and resume, and negotiate a contract should the actor get the job. It is still the talent’s responsibility to handle much of the marketing of their careers. Headshots, demos, comp cards, etc are not supplied by the agent; they are the responsibility of the talent.

Who do you represent?

We represent models, actors and voice over professionals.

What do you charge for representation?

We receive a percentage from the jobs we book you. You will still be free to find work on your own without paying a commission on them. You are expected, however, to supply the agency with the standard marketing materials (headshots, resumes, demo tapes, etc.) at your expense.

Are you licensed?

Yes, we are licensed by the state of Texas. Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation No. TALAGY00000554.

Where are you located?

We are located in Dallas, TX near Mockingbird Station.

I’m just beginning my career and I don’t have [headshots, resume, demo tapes, etc]. Will you still consider me?

Yes, however, in that case our focus will be on developing your talent. You cannot book jobs without the proper skills nor can you market yourself without the proper tools. You may be asked to take additional classes/workshops, etc. You are expected to supply the agency with the standard marketing materials (headshots, resumes, demo tapes, etc.) at your expense.

I submitted my application and was not contacted back.

Because of the volume of submissions we receive on a daily basis, we are unable to contact everyone who submits to us regarding representation. It can take us anywhere from days to weeks to review your submission depending on the volume of submissions. If we are interested in you we will contact you by phone to set up an appointment. If you plan to resubmit, wait at least six-months to a year, or as soon as you have new photos or your resume has changed.

Do you represent talent outside of the Dallas / Ft. Worth area?

Yes, but you will have to secure your own marketing materials as our services are all local to DFW.

Am I required to use your photographers/makeup artists/instructors/etc?

Absolutely not. You are free to find your own services. We offer our services as a convenience for our talent so that they have access to safe, budget-friendly options for things they need.

Do you represent children (0-12 yrs)?

At present, we do not. However, we are hoping to soon offer such services. Any applications sent to us are currently being held on file until further notice.

I’m not able to submit through the contact form/VALIDATION ERROR!

There should be an error message stating what is wrong beneath the “send” button.
A validation error means there is a problem with your photo. Most of the time, the problem is your image is too large. If you do not know how to resize your image, go to www.resizeyourimage.com and use the online tool. It’s suggested to crop and resize your image to a width and height of 700 pixels or less. Remember not to make your photo too small however, or we will not be able to see your lovely face!
