What Your Agent Should Not Do


Hey World,

I have had many requests via email, facebook & twitter for blogs about Agents! I shall certainly continue this topic.

What Your Agent Should Do
1.) Submit you to roles that are fitting for you
2.) Call you when a casting director would like to see you for a role

What Your Agent Should Not Do
1.) Tell you that you need headshots only from a specific photographer (this is a red flag) If you ask your agent for a recommendation because you are new to the area or business, that is completely different. However, if your agent outwardly suggests that you see a particular photographer before he/she will work for you, peace out and lose their #.

2.) Ask you to pay them.

More to come on Agents -- the wonderful people who work hard to get us good jobs!

Love,
Lexi
