Do I need experience?

  • Everybody has to start at the same place with no experience!. From there it is a progression whereby experience comes from a combination of enthusiasm, effort and active promotion. The more of these that are bought together around your talent - the more bookings and experience will follow.
  • It is important to remember that your ‘look’ and 'skill' count more than your experience! If you have a marketable talent or look you could be hired even without experience. If the client thinks you are right for the booking, there is every chance you are. The client will include the issue of experience in their search - if you have come up - then go ahead and show them what you can do!
  • Your e-Portfolio will invite you to describe your skill level - so neither you nor the hirer are surprised.
  • Finally, remember two things; talent overshadows experience and experience is no substitute for talent!
  • If you are able to quote experience in performing your talent - then blow your trumpet and say so!
I've been rejected by an agency before, what should I do?

  • The entertainment industry is extremely competitive so if one agency says “no” don't be discouraged: it could be that another agency will select you - it may just be a matter of persistence
  • Rejection by an agency doesn't mean you're not marketable or don't have talent - hirers are always on the look out for new faces and talented people.
  • It may be, previous disappointments were because the agency specialized or had different requirements than your skills Or, like so many agencies, they may have difficulty in promoting the talent they already have.
  • So far as Talent Management is concerned, we welcome new faces as all Talent Management agents are working to promote all the talent, so unlike a conventional agency - when you're signed by a Talent Management agent - you have the whole network promoting you nationwide and soon, that effort will be international.
  • If at first you don't succeed, try and try yet again.......!
