What do talent agencies expect in a interview

I was just wondering what questions do talent agencys ask you in a interview? do they ask u to read a monologe? also do you need to bring anything to the interview? i'm very new to this and have no experience, but i'm interested in this field of work.

Can you help me with info about agents in perth area, for children, esp for singing and dancing and acting thanks esp which is a good one.

I'm going for a interview with pg agency, i was wondering should i bring anything with me to the interview? and what questions should i ask them?

I would think that one of the questions to ask them is what kind of commission they take. Sticky Apple Legs www.freewebs.com/stickyapplelegs Puppets in Melbourne www.thepromptcopy.com/pip

It is very funny to me how the same question pops up every month or so on agents. And even more funny how it’s always Laburg, Na and I who always answer the question the same way. Can I make a suggestion to all new people out there, look at some of the recent posts for say the last 2 months and I am sure you will find the answer you are looking for. But in relation to Shimmeramy's question, agents usually will ask you to perform a monologue and to have an updated CV and possible headshot. They do this to 1) see how you perform, 2) see what you have done beforehand, and 3) how well you can perform under pressure and 4) to see if they can make money out of you. No agent will put a performer on the books unless they can make money out of you. As Na said: Ask what commission they take out of the pay To answer Butlin's question, the three main acting agencies in Perth are: Actors Now, Actors Management, and Frog Management. There are other agents about that specialize in shopping centre entertainment, corporate events, etc but it depends on what you mainly want to do. I have said it before, do your homework! Especially before you hand over money, look on the internet, ask people who are with them, ask people who are no longer with them, and finally ask the agent what they can do for you. Hope this helps everyone concerned Keep Smiling :) David Green DRAGON FILMS www.davidgreenenterprises.com

Although many of you new ones like myself may have already, I would strongly recommend reading Labrug's blog on this subject (he has provided the link in his earlier post). It provides very useful info in terms of what questions to ask, what services does the agency provide that suit you and you talents and of course the all important fees and commissions situation. As a young actor, with a fair bit of amatuer, but no pro'/paid work under my belt, I found it extremely useful, so do go and check it out.

does anyone know anything about DNA MODEL AGENCY? are they any good? they love to sign me up with no fees to pay them, but i wish to know if they re any good? thanks brisbane
