I was with a top agency, im not going to say their name, but they didnt do anything for me, i thought i was on top of the world when i left drama school and signed with them, but when i was with them i didnt audition for months and if i did audition it was like left over stuff like commercials and coporate, they cared about their high profile clients, i didnt feel i was part of the agency, i felt i didnt belong there, i felt worthless, i see their clients auditioning for films and getting offered big movies, tv and theatre work and when it came to me i was like a piece of crap. Now i found a agent which cares about me and wants to see me do well, my agent is not big, hopefully he will get there, he cares about his clients he treats every client the same, he has a great relationship with all his clients, i think thats what you need, dont think just because your with a big agent that means your career is going to go smooth, its about buliding a healty relationship, and having patience, faith and hope in your talents and ability. and thats my advice is not to think about just because the agency is huge but to think about whats best for you and sometimes having a top agent will not work out, but having a agent that cares about you and your talents.
thats just my opinion, some of you might disagree, which is fair enough, and i might be wrong with the things i said. but i wish everyone success, happiness, good health and wish all your dreams comes true. and hope to see you all as oscar winners and in the cinema and on the big london stage.
lots of love and respect
