Even worse (for the other person) is when your child is picked as the stand in from the casting and another child is told they are the lead but then when the director meets the two kids switches it around so that the other child is the stand in!! Thats what happened with an advert my daughter was in...

Aww my daughter sent voice recording too then got invited to recall just before xmas but we havnt heard back since then guessing it must be a no by now though xx

Was this through your agent or an open casting? Thanks x

Hi it was through agent xx

Hi was anyone at the casting for Ricky Zoom just before xmas? Just wondering if anyones heard back yet? Xx

Im afraid theres not alot that can be done if school have said no :'(. The LEA are able to overide the schools decision but if they are not willing to do so it makes it quite difficult :(. All you can really do is maybe arrange a meeting with the headteacher and talk through the benefits he will get...

Wow how exciting!! Thats sounding really positive! Will keep my fingers crossed for you!! Film castings tend to be much longer than tv/tvc but that sounds really long- is it for a lead role? Xx

It varies alot depending on how many applications theyv had etc but i'd say if you've not heard anything after a month then assume its a no but sometimes if agencies books are closed at that time they may still keep your childa details on record for when they open again! Its horrible waiting though ...

Thanks for your help- we've applied so fingers crossed! They do an assessment day now for children in the south and self tape for children in the north so hopefully they should have a better idea of the childrens personalitys. Typically it was really quiet for my daughter with agency she was with so...

Oops i meant this weekend not morning

Sooo Tiny Angels books are open this morning, im thinking of applying for my daughter, just wondering what peoples experiences are with them? Xx

No they dont forward you the briefs at Ology they just submit everyone who fits the brief- the only exception is for really short notice castings like same day or if the castings are in the south if your based in the north and in that case they will txt you a quick summary of what dates you would ne...

Welldone! When we've done them before my daughter has tried on a selection of outfits then had her photo taken in each one and then they sent the pictures to the client and they decided which one they liked best x

Ology dont do musical theatre thats the one thing that put us off them- we went to their assessment and my daughter was accepted but they stated its just modelling/tv/tvc but no theatre xx

They hadnt decided still last week when my daughter was in London filming a tvc as we were chatting to some of the production team who will be working on it and they told us! So still hope guys! Fingers crossed x

Thanks for your replies- think i'll avoid them! And its a good point what you said i hadnt thought about the number of children on books when i said about them getting more work. They said they are selective and only take a couple from each of their audition workshops but when i counted up they do h...
