I applied for a job through la castings unfortunately, BTS was the third party. I had a question…read moreabout payroll so I TRIED to contact BTS. while going through their website, I realized they DO NOT have a working phone number only a recording instructing you on how to join the company. I reached out via email and was finally contacted 1 hour prior to me having to be on set with a gibberish answer that I'm sure she (Debbie) did not read prior to hitting the send button. as I'm writing this I am still unclear about payroll so I am choosing not to film that particular project since payroll is through BTS. from experience, if you CANNOT contact a company then there is a chance that you will NEVER be paid for your services.

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. She keeps me submitted and pitched. Not only that but Sueanne has helped me embrace my uniqueness and has taught me how to use these things as an advantage to become more competitive. She takes the time to critique and push every client on her roster in ways that will help them become more professional and stand out from the millions of other actors.

I'm really lucky to have Sueanne not only representing me, but also in my corner. She's always…read moreputting me out there and giving me great opportunities. She's more than an agent and works so hard at building each person based on who they are.

The Dupree Talent Agency is a complete joke. Worst experience ever! Look elsewhere if you want…read morequality representation. Jeffrey Dupree does not have a clue on what he's doing and has no decent contacts in the industry. I got zero response from this clown after I emailed several messages. Total clueless bozo who does not return emails or calls. I guess he doesn't care about his talent. His website is a fail lame-show full of typos, which is a great indication on how he does business. His webpage looks like a three-year-old built it. I ended up going to LA Talent Agency which have been amazing and very responsive to work with. LA Talent Agency already booked to two gigs!

Jeff was never professional towards me, once I found out he was verbal abusing others on set, I let…read moremyself go from this agency. Defaming others and having horrible posts about others was when I drew the line with this agency and him. I have reported him the SAG about the verbal abuse he did to others and myself. In the beginning, they knew what I won't do or can't do. What the laws are in Texas and etc. They never read anything that the talents can't do or won't do.

I've been in the industry for a long time and been through my share of agency representation in…read morethis market. I can easily say that KIT is the best! 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 wasn't actively looking at the time, but their approach was incredibly welcoming, transparent, and engaging. They really took the time to understand what I wanted and helped me secure a role that truly aligned with my goals.

I can't speak highly enough of them and have already started recommending 80Twenty to friends and colleagues!

Face2Face is really an amazing service for background performers and I highly recommend this to…read morewhoever is interested in pursuing extra work! 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!

I entered the agency and enjoyed the setup for the lobby. It was a large open room where the back…read morewall was made of glass and you could see the agents working avidly at their computers behind it. There was a large tv on one of the walls that I found a little distracting and a couple of people sat there waiting for their open call experience. I sat among them. After a quick observation...I concluded that this was one of the rudest interactions I've witnessed during an open call. I was pretty surprised by the way the worker flipped through the portfolio of the model who was there before me. She literally flipped and looked away as she continued to flip, bored out of her mind. Talk about rude. She proceeded to take some digitals of the model and once that was done, plopped down, turned to me and asked me for my book. She showed mild interest and we stood to take some polaroids. Upon standing she asked me my age and when I declared that I was over the age restriction her face literally fell. She might as well have dropped the camera and the act and bid me on my way. With that disclosure she snapped three half assed pictures and at this point I couldn't keep quiet. I asked her how strict the age requirement here was and announced that her obvious disapproval was blatant. She said their policy is very strict and though their direct division casts older models, that they were not currently holding open castings but that she would show them my card. Yeah right. I think someone needs a cup of coffee or some hospitality training. This is the industry but wise up and suck it up. It's not that hard to greet people, take pictures and politely decline them. Anyway, this rating is obviously based on that interaction because I cannot rate how this place is as an acting agency.

I have to say that I was completely impressed with their professionalism and willingness to teach me but teach my son the ins and outs of the entertainment industry. Brendle always supported my son in any project he was doing, even if it wasn't something that was acquired through Apex. He came to every show that Andrew was in and would check in on him if he was sick or hurt. We could always depend on Brendle to let us know if a self-tape was produced well enough, or if we needed to tweak it to make it even better. Whenever my son had an audition we always got a good luck call or text and when it was over he followed up with us to see how we thought it went. Having them on our team really helped to prepare my boy for the business as well as the art school he is now attending. Thank you Brendle, Richard and Emily for giving Andrew this opportunity.
