The Casting Collective Reviews 

Casting Collective is a professional agency that primarily handles large-scale movies or TV series productions, though they also take on smaller projects or commercials. Since I joined them a few years ago, they have consistently provided me with work and increasing annually, making them the best agency for me in terms of the number of jobs I've received. Their communication is generally prompt, though occasionally there are instances where I don't receive a reply. I believe I've worked with every booker at the agency except one, of which so far all were polite and professional. However, since the strikes began, I've only received a few daily small jobs, despite knowing they are handling many productions currently for a couple of months now. Hopefully, this situation will improve soon, I do understand it’s also depending if the crowd 2nd booked us. Whenever I have questions about payments they resolve them efficiently with a specific department, which is a relief, and payment is usually quick. Overall, I want to thank all the frontline bookers, back office staff, and management team for their continuous support ! Your hard work is truly appreciated and remembered.

Applied for a few roles, penciled in then released.

But I did get two separate days in June 24 on the same production. First day was close to me, so that was great. Second day was further a field, but decent travel expenses.
The production I was on, seemed pretty good. Well fed, looked after and a great experience. Yes there was a lot of waiting around, but used that time to talk to other extras, and watch other parts being filmed.

The casting collective team, were very informative. I knew where and when I had to be on set. Payment details came through a few day after. The payment into bank a few weeks later, all as described when signing up.

So far so good for me. Overall good experience. Fingers crossed my face/look is suitable for future productions.

I think they are a professional agency but sadly despite being on their books for a few years I never get selected so I must have the wrong look. I must admit I am probably going to give up as all hope has gone now.

Top agency representing major productions

Great Agency to work for with good communication and prompt payments.

I'd always wanted to give support artiste work a try, so I signed up to The Casting Collective. I didn't have to wait long until I was given the opportunity to work with them. From start to finish, the staff were friendly, helpful and great at communicating. The experience exceeded all my expectations, and I have been hooked ever since. Whether on location or in a studio setting, the work has been great fun, with the added bonus of meeting wonderful people and making lasting friendships. I highly recommend The Casting Collective for anyone looking to have a memorable experience in the entertainment industry.

I joined Casting Collective a couple of years ago and throughout that time my experience has been very positive. I’ve had the opportunity of meeting a few members of the team whilst on a film set. It has been great to put a face to the member of the team who contacts me for job opportunities. They are very professionals, friendly and approachable when you may need to query any aspects of a production. I believe the team does an incredible job under tremendous competition from other agencies and try hard to find you most suitable roles. Casting Collective is one of the best agency around in my mind.

A top quality agency which for me has provided among the most rewarding and exciting jobs during my time in the industry.

Great agency. I have had some lovely jobs from them over the last few years. As others have said you need to be patient, you will not be picked for everything but you can increase your chances by keeping your profile details and photos up-to-date and having good availability.

Casting Collective is a really professional SA agency. Every Available Requests was well communicated. Once they know you have not been selected, they will Release you so you can get on with your time, which shows their professionalism. I really enjoyed those projects I was selected for and hopefully there will be more to come this year. Also, they pay quickly.

Casting Collective is one of the well established agencies in the business. Their area of specialism is the movie industry although they do also do TV and commercials. Their bookers are good are accessible, friendly, professional and helpful. If there are errors in the information provided they are quick to make corrections and redistribute. IMHO, Casting collective is a very good agency and is highly recommended.

A great company and team to be involved with.

Fantastic experience with other SA’s, super supportive casting and production team.

I love working with Casting Collective. A really professional SA agency. They are easy to deal with and pay quickly. They also work with some really top productions.

Professional team! Prompt to answer your questions, they are helpful, friendly and understanding !
Prompt to pay wages .! Highly recommend !

Although I’ve only been signed up for a short time and as yet haven’t had work, Casting Collective seem a very professionally run company. On the few occasions I’ve had contact, I’ve found them to be very polite and helpful.

All my best opportunities have come through Casting Collective. Responsive and helpful staff, earnings paid on time. Like with all other agencies being released from local jobs and ones I would be ideal for is really annoying but that appears to be the industry standard. Looking forward to more fun and adventures with them.

Very professional agency. Good communication and very personable bookers who respond quickly should you encounter any problems. I have worked continuously for this company for many years now and have been fortunate enough to have worked on many high profile projects.

I have been with CC for a few years now and love being part of the team. To be fair, I don't get too much work and do get cancelled quite a bit, but I feel my expectations are realistic. I have been in some good series and absolutely love meeting other people and sharing experiences. For me its a hobby as I could not rely on this being my main source of income and I do belong to 2 other agencies. The thing that does amuse me though, is that I am a nurse and not once have I been picked for said role.

They don’t look professionals and the contract celebrated between parts always benefit them more instead both parts. I did a job through this agence beginning of September and and now almost November I didn’t receive anything yet. It’s looks quite unfair despite this information is written in the contract. Usually they are not very polite when you have doubts and they presume you don’t value anything. They book a job with you and you organise yourself your agenda for that and always missing some days (short notice) they cancel or release you. They say is not their fault but the production choices. Never been so mistreated like this before, I m glad I don’t rely on them, otherwise I would be more unsatisfied.
