Welcome to the FTA
Our books are open throughout the year, and our Casting Agent Thea attends ALL
classes once a month to constantly assess our talent and also invite new talent to
be represented by our agency to be represented to our agency. We currently only
represent children who attend our classes. This is so that we can monitor their talent
and new skills.
If you/your child are invited to be represented by us, this is an immediate acceptance
onto our agency, regardless of an audition.
If you would like to apply, please complete the following form and contract.
Thank you for taking the time to apply for representation.
What happens after I have completed this form?
If your child has been invited to join our Film and Television Academy, please complete
the below form and sign the contract, and we can get your child set up onto our
database and arrange photographs (see below) so that we can start putting them
forward for jobs.
If you are applying for your child to join the FTA, Thea will asses them in class and we
will confirm their representation or suggest the next step if they don't quite meet the
criteria to join the FTA yet.
Do I need to pay for photographs?
We hold professional photoshoots a few times a year. We also hold photoshoots in class
once a year and these photos will be suitable for use in our Film & Television Academy.
If your child joins the FTA before or after one of these shoots, we will take a temporary
photo so that we can start representing them immediately.
Things to consider
Please keep in mind that a lot of auditions come through with little notice, and children
may be expected to attend an audition the following day, and need to miss school
occassionally due to auditions (headteachers are usually supportive of this but you may
want to check this with them before signing the contract).
It is usually upto a parent to take a child to an audition, but in the case where it's not
possible due to work or other commitments, Jaynie or Thea will usually be happy to
attend with your child.
We look forward to representing your J Star!
Jaynie (Director) & Thea (Casting agent)
