We are a well known and established casting agency that provides leading reputable local and international production houses and advertising agencies with cast and characters. In registering with us, you/your child will be introduced into a whole new world that will develop confidence, communication skills and self-esteem.
The following is intended to tell you more about our agency and to help you understand how things work in this industry. Peak season runs from September to April. There is no registration fee payable when registering with Kidz & Modelz 2000.
On registering, we need to take photographs and have 'Z-Cards' produced. (A 'Z-Card' is a card with a display of photos and details of the character.) The cost is R200. The portfolio must be paid in full before the shoot. (No exceptions!)
The 'Z-Cards' are now distributed to various production houses and advertising agencies with which we work. They in turn contact us with their casting requirements or with the names of specific characters they would like to see.
We are not able to guarantee anyone work, but we are able to guarantee that we will distribute the 'Z-Cards' and actively promote you/your child with the exposure needed with the organizations with whom we do business.
In the case of children, height is very important. Please measure your child every 3 months and phone us with the new measurement. It will save you a lot of time and embarrassment - getting to a casting to be told that your child has grown 6cm in the last 6 months.
Our 'Z-Cards' are only updated every year. Should you/your child's hairstyle change dramatically during the year, please contact us to have new 'Z-Cards' printed.
Important, be ready to travel a lot. If you cannot attend or take your child to castings, which is sometimes required at very short notice, please reconsider registering. If after you find it too much, or your child is no longer enjoying it, and you would like to take a few months off, please let us know well in advance. This is to assist us from not constantly having to make excuses for those who do not attend a casting when a production house has specifically requested that character.
Often, especially in the case of TV-commercials, we are only permitted to send a limited number of characters fitting a certain description. If you can't make it for any reason please let us now so that we can send someone else. By not telling us, you are taking an opportunity away from another person.
