Re: Platform Talent Management Agency

Hi there, decided not to renew In Nov 2016. Only had one year under the new owner. Prior to that had been with Platform since the start and was really happy with the management then.

Re: What Age Does Age Stop Dealing with Parent on behalf of

Interesting to read what paulears has written. My DS will legally have to remain in schooling, training or workplace training until the age of 18. I know that anyone under age of 18 can't enter into and sign a legal contract, therefore a parent or guardian needs to be involved. My DS's agency has ju...

Re: Agencies passing on fees

I personally not sure that would achieve much and may make Agents look like they are not being honest. As it has been said before not all castings/productions pay theses attendance fees. I asked my DS Agent about such fees this morning and she has never had any from film/theatre/commercial/photoshoo...

Re: What can I say to school to get them on my side?

We have neve...
