Atlanta Talent Agencies

 

As with almost everything else entertainment related in Atlanta, there are dozens of talent agencies in Atlanta, so this is only a partial list. These agencies are those I know to be reputable either because I have personally been a client or actors I know and respect are represented by them.

Quick Takes.

 

Are They Legit?

Remember, a legitimate talent agency ONLY gets paid when you work! A legit agency will NEVER FOR ANY REASON ask you for money upfront and will NEVER require you to work with a specific headshot photographer or class. If an agent ever asks you for money for representation, RUN LIKE HELL!

When to Submit.

If you haven’t trained or have any indie film credits, it may not be the right time. Only submit to an agency when you are READY. You should, at a minimum, have some training and, if possible, a modest demo reel. Incredible headshots are a MUST before you submit as well..

How to Submit.

Getting with a great agency often happens through referral, but you may also submit to some. BEFORE YOU DO, visit the agency’s website and FOLLOW DIRECTIONS for submitting. If the agency website says they are not taking submissions, do not submit. And do not call or email the agency after you submit. If they like you, they will call when they are ready.
