Not only are they professional and very hands-on with me as their talent, the owner is a working model/actor...that makes a huge difference to me because she knows exactly what is going on in the industry, understands the ups and downs and can directly relate to what I experience. Anytime I have questions or concerns, they don't hesitate to respond quickly and I love that they take the time to send group emails with all sorts of information, from workshops we can sign up for to discussion about important topics related to auditioning, keeping our profiles current, etc. Although I am a veteran, I wish I had an agent that took the time to break down the way things work when I first started so I know the roster of newbies at KIT are not only getting opportunities they otherwise wouldn't have access to, they're getting an agent who wants to educate them to ensure they succeed. I've never had an agent who worked so hard for me and who cares so much...with get togethers, holiday parties and other gatherings, KIT wants to be more than just an agent with a bunch of people on their roster. It really does feel like a family and I look forward to continuing to work with them for many years to come. Highly recommend!

I FREAKIN LOVE THIS AGENCY. I came to this agency with no real credits and can confidently say I've…read morebeen in dozens of commercials and print ads. I've even been on billboards. My agent Sueanne is the best. Literally. She reps me both commercially and as of this year theatrically. There is rarely a week that goes by without me going out on auditions.

Hello, Yelpers*. My…read morename is Alfonso Faustino, and I am a SAG-AFTRA actor. Recently, I got picked up by RSA Entertainment and Talent Management, and it was one of the best things that happened to me, as an actor, in 2018. Here are some of the areas that RSA Entertainment and Talent Managment excel in: - Auditions: they work effectively to get me auditions. Brenda and Gina have excellent long-standing reputations and connections in the entertainment industry -- both film and television mediums. Each time I go to an audition, the casting director or producer mention they know Gina and Brenda very well and always have positive things to say about them. - Pitch Package: they are experienced managers; hence, they immediately worked on my primary casting circle and created pitch package that hones in my primary casting to my agent (theatrical and commercial), casting directors, and producers; - They work well with my commercial and theatrical agent (Park Artist Group) in making certain that my casting sends out a clear and concise message about my casting; - They return emails and calls in less than 24 hours -- frequently, Brenda or Gina will return my emails or calls within minutes, and they always have an answer for me in their first response; - They are Subject Matter Experts in the entertainment market -- they have years and years of experience in the entertainment industry, and their information is current and also cutting edge. They can anticipate and forecast changes in the industry and apply those changes to my casting; - They are a one-stop-shop: In addition to managing me as an actor, they have reputable and proven team members that manage social media marketing, traditional marketing, and public relations. If I go to a red-carpet event, they have a person that will manage me on the carpet or any media-related event I need to attend. - They are honest and ethical: Brenda and Gina don't tell me the stuff I wanna hear -- rather, they tell me the stuff I need to know. If I see my casting is one way, they will evaluate me, and support my direction if it is correct; or, they will tell me, "no way -- your casting doesn't support that direction at this time." - Workshops: Brenda and Gina will host workshops at their office designed to help me excel in the entertainment industry. - Good People: Brenda, Gina, and the rest of the team are good and genuine people -- they want to help their talent succeed -- they really want the best for their talent and best for their company. These are just several items that stand out in my recent and new experiences with RSA Entertainment and Talent Management. If you're in the market for new management, give RSA Entertainment and Talent Management a ring and schedule a introduction meeting.

The management is fantastic, but they could definitely use a fresh rebranding. Their social media…read moremarketing could use a modern update. They focus on youth, and a new touch on social media will help them reach a wider audience. The current branding feels a bit outdated. They should also consider rebranding the name. It seems like they specialize in more than just "Talent". The legacy of Schuller and the name of Schuller should stay, but they need a modern marketing approach to attract the young generation. I hope they could take this in consideration

My best compliment is that CTC thinks outside the box. They put you up for roles that I perhaps wouldn't submit myself on and then you realise they were right (again). If you are interested send in your headshot and wait for them to contact you. If you get called in, show them your talents. ie. guitar, singing, dancing, comedy....whatever. The CD's love Hugh and CTC. Make sure you are doing classes too. Good luck!

Finding My Dream Job During A Worldwide Pandemic…read more I saw the most perfect job position posted on Indeed by 80Twenty that aligned with everything I wanted with my career. I applied immediately, and checked for the next few days, if my application had been viewed. Knowing how competitive Los Angeles is, not to mention how much more it is now during a pandemic, I searched for the job posting on LinkedIn, hoping I could and a direct message to the assigned recruiter. At the time the job wasn't posted and there were multiple recruiters that worked with 80Twenty. I went through each profile, seeing if maybe they were separated by industry but I couldn't really tell. So I finally sent a LinkedIn direct message to the CEO of 80Twenty, Annika Brytnse. I sat with anticipation, over-analyzing if I had overstepped, if she would even respond, etc. I've worked with some amazing recruiters before, but often it's difficult to get one to respond back due to the overwhelming response of candidates they usually get. To my surprise, she replied back quickly, providing me an email introduction to Larissa Gerlach, Head of Recruitment Services. My experience with Larissa was absolutely amazing. I was able to speak candidly with her, and she communicated with me at every step. She even took additional time out of her day, to let me practice a Go-To-Market presentation, I had created on my own, hoping it would help give me an edge. She provided feedback and encouragement, that gave me the confidence to present for the executive team. When I received the news I had gotten the job from the client, Larissa didn't just email me congratulations, she called me directly! She explained that our connection wouldn't just stop here. She would be there to assist, even after I started the role. I've never felt so supported by other recruiters before. She went above and beyond her job description. In closing, I would reccomend 80Twenty to both potential clients and applicants. Looking at posts on LinkedIn and my own experiences regarding experiences with recruiters aren't always as positive. Lack of follow-up and full knowledge of what the role entails is often frustrating on both the client and applicant side. Such positive experiences as I've had with 80Twenty should be applauded and shouted to the heavens! Thank you so much 80Twenty for helping me find my dream role, in the midst of a worldwide pandemic!

We hired Craig Yorizane of Avner Gat, Inc. after our home was badly damaged in the January 2025…read moreEaton Fire. The damage was extensive: structural issues, asbestos and lead contamination, and a destroyed yard wall. Our insurance company has repeatedly undervalued the claim. Craig's background as a former insurance company adjuster made a real difference. He understands how carriers evaluate and negotiate claims, and he uses that knowledge well. What stood out most was his temperament. He's level-headed and patient, and he never lets things get emotional. He simply documents where the insurer got it wrong and holds them to the law. His persistence paid off. We've secured the funding to remove the lead and asbestos as well as bring our roof and HVAC back to pre-loss condition with more to come. If you're facing a difficult property claim, especially after a fire, we strongly recommend Craig. He's clear, strategic, and effective.

We contacted Avner Gat after our home suffered significant water damage. Initially, we tried to…read morenavigate the insurance claim process on our own, but we quickly realized how difficult and frustrating it was to get anywhere. From the moment we called Avner Gat, everything changed. They stepped in as our advocate and immediately began moving the claim forward. Craig Yorizane took the time to explain the entire process, set realistic expectations, and guide us through every step. Craig worked incredibly hard and was thoughtful and strategic in handling our claim. He anticipated potential setbacks before they happened and was prepared to address them. When delays required our temporary housing to be extended several times, Craig stayed on top of everything and made sure we were taken care of. He consistently went above and beyond for us. What stood out most was that we genuinely felt Craig was looking out for our best interests. He was knowledgeable, responsive, honest, and professional throughout an extremely stressful situation. The insurance claim process can feel overwhelming and, at times, as though it is designed to wear you down. Having Craig and the team at Avner Gat in our corner made an enormous difference. They made the process manageable, and most importantly, we never felt like we were facing it alone. Craig Yorizane is an exceptional professional and someone we came to trust completely. We are incredibly grateful for everything he did for us and recommend Craig and Avner Gat without reservation.

I took some time off from BG but wanted to get back into it and am so thrilled that Face2Face was able to bring me onto their roster. I have been fortunate enough to be booked often since I joined, and that's even without being re-registered with Central Casting (can't wait to also do that when they re-open registration and tell them that I'm with F2F so I can get even more bookings)! Eden, Mike and the whole team have always been very easy to get ahold of + very detail-oriented and timely with all the necessary information I need to arrive to the right place prepared and on-time. Can't overstate how happy I am to be a part of this roster as I look forward to more opportunities of working productions in 2021 and beyond!

Once I described my situation, I received numerous texts asking to confirm over the next couple days, despite already explaining myself and getting a response. When I reached out again, they revealed they had already removed me from their roster. I understand it's on me to keep my calendar updated, but the way they handled things was unfair and rude.

Whatta crew! I've been booked by Standing Room Only a bunch of times, and they have always been…read moreprofessional, punctual, and good about communicating the expectations. Mostly SRO books live, in-studio audiences for LA-based talk shows. I've gotten to attend tapings of weekly comedy shows, sitcom pilots, holiday specials, courtroom gallery for court shows, you name it. The work depends on the production so it changes up and gets slow sometimes - Standing Room Only doesn't control that but has a solid core crew that keeps things light and moving in an industry that can be hectic. I had an issue with a payment that went missing and had to call the payroll office, expecting it to be a nightmare, and the tech could not have been more helpful and awesome at getting everything corrected. So that side of the business works too, and it's good to know that the one time out of a hundred I actually had a problem, it was simple to fix. I've recommended all my friends in LA to sign up! The number one thing is, read and RE-READ the dress codes! Those come from the show so what seems stupid (no stripes) is sometimes just TV rules. And some sets do not allow you to have your phone with you or turned on, at all, so if you are ADDICTED to your phone and can't comprehend reading or chatting during down time, this might not be for you.

I do not actively look for any roles and I have no intention of doing this full-time. However, this week I received a text from Standing Room Only to join a group audition call. I joined the zoom and it was for Judge Mathis and I was casted as the defendant. From the first call I feel like this is a legit company and I was immediately provided all of the information I needed leaving no room for questions. Rahul sent an email with all of the information I needed for the shoot. He called me to confirmed I received it. I was told the shoot was the next day, so I drove to Standing Room Only in Culver City. The morning of the shoot I sent the production assistants, Karen and Zack, a text to let them know I was on my way and they immediately responded. I feel like the team was very professional. As soon as I arrived on site the security guards greeted me and told me where to park. Once inside, the security guys at the table checked my bags and told me where to hang my clothes. Once it was time for check-in Venita greeted me with a smile and asked for my photo I.D and passport. Zack had a one on one with my partner and I and continued to check on us until we finally shot our episode. Joe was our producer and could not have been more professional! They had make up on site and lunch was provided for those who were there 5+ hrs. Standing Room Only is a very professional and organized production company. The people all love what they do, and their willingness to be nice and repeat things that I'm sure they say hundreds of times a day, shows me that they have their operations dialed in. If you have any questions about this company I think you will learn that they are doing great things and you should give them a try. Thanks, Ashley
