The role of a drama agency such as IWM Next Gen is to find professional work for our artists appropriate to each individual performer’s skill-level and profile. We are the first point of contact for casting directors and producers who are looking to cast a particular role and it is our job to know where each of our artist’s abilities lie so that we can put forward the right person for the right role.
It is our job to arrange auditions for the artist and to ensure that they have all the necessary information to audition well. Once the performer has been offered the role, then it is our responsibility to ensure that the terms of employment and fees are satisfactory and abide by industry standards.
A good agent will also take the time to build a relationship with their actors so that they are in a position to guide each performer along their chosen career path.
