Any comments on an agency called Talent 6?

Question

I saw an add in my local newspaper and I am curious to see how legit this is.

Answer 1

I can't think of any reason a legit agency would place an ad in the paper. The business is so competitive agents have new clients sending them headshots every day by the hundresds or more,t hey don't need to go looking for more.

If you want to know if they're legit, check them out. Look here:

http://www.agentassociation.com/
http://www.backstage.com/bso/rossreports/directories.jsp

If they're not listed with one of those, I wouldn't go to them.

By the way, do you have the training and resume that you need before seeking out an agent? If not, don't bother until you do. Get into classes, get some roles on your resume then submit your headshots to agents. Go to local theatre audutions, and get some student & indie film roles on your resume. Use backstage.com and actorsaccess.com for audition info. If you live in an area that those sites aren't very helpful, another place to try would be your state's film alliances, commissions, etc. Do a websearch for your state name and the word film. Those sites often have info on classes and auditions for locals.

good luck!

Answer 2

A legit talent agency will not charge you any fee. They will get you work and get a commision that way. You can get headshots from a photographer outside the agency. Good luck
