THE TALENT SPOT FAQ
“What does The Talent Spot do, are you an agency?”
We discover, develop, and train actors and aspiring actors of all skill levels across the United States and even internationally for leading agents and managers across the US. We teach our performers all the tools they need as an actor, empower them in how to find acting opportunities and how to professionally pursue them. We also train our performers in practical acting and audition techniques that have helped our current and past performers book work, get agency callbacks, and even representation. Once our performers are ready, we give them the opportunity to showcase everything they have learned and the materials we have helped them develop. These performances are a part of our bi-monthly industry showcases that we hold for leading agents and managers across the US. We are not an agency, instead we help develop and polish performers for agents and managers. It can be a lot of work to know how to navigate this industry, or what an agent or manager is looking in an actor and that’s where we come in!

This also gives us the chance to work with talent on their audition technique and self tape materials.
