Unfortunately no agency can guarantee you work. We represent those we feel we can successfully submit for work, but there is no guarantee. We also expect you to respond quickly to our messages and inform us of any changes to your situation.

Most castings/shoots are in London, with lots in Manchester and Glasgow. Whilst Casting Directors expect you to attend castings – usually with less than a day’s notice and at your cost – some will accept self-tapes, so it’s important you record an intro video.

So, whilst we’re proactive informing you of castings and putting you forward, we expect you to be proactive in responding to our emails and keeping your profile and headshots up to date!

Once your profile is live, you need to know how we work! Please read below and refer back to!

Check your headshots are appropriate as we may add you to other casting sites we use, where we submit you for roles without contacting you first.

How castings work:

1. YOU APPLY – We post jobs directly to our members, sometimes on our website, social media and WhatsAppand when we’ve time, send you a nudge to read these if we feel you fit the brief.

You need to apply directly if you’re available and interested in being submitted.

2. AUTO SUBMITTED – Production Companies scan our website and shortlist the talent they’re interested in OR we submit our Spotlight and Casting Callback talent directly through those platforms – you need to be members first, so sign up if you can.

You will only hear about these if you are shortlisted or invited to audition.

So check casting calls regularly and follow us on social media 🙂

Applying for jobs

  • Apart from Spotlight and Casting Callback members, we don’t automatically submit you for roles; you need to apply via an application form which you’ll find below each brief.
  • Some Production Companies prefer to make their own selections and we’ll contact you if selected – you need a LIVE profile for this though!
  • Please do check the post date of jobs and casting/shoot dates before applying as they are time-limited. It’s always best to respond quickly. So check your email often, and/or follow us on social media as some jobs are shared there (links below).

Check your email regularly as this is how we contact you about jobs and auditions (usually with little notice) and reply! Failure to reply may cause your profile to be deactivated or deleted.

Add @tvtwins.uk to your ‘whitelist’ so we don’t go into your spam folder! We have a virtual office so we’re not on hand to take phone calls – please use email at all times.


Add family and friends

Register other family members, who may want to get involved in shoots requiring real, true life connections, such as:

  • singleton (such as a sibling, partner or parent)
  • couple (such as two parents or two siblings)

Singletons have their own profile, couples share a joint one, all are linked to the twins profile, and we can put you all forward for work – as individuals or together.

Register now so that when a relevant casting call comes up, profiles are ready to be submitted – don’t wait for a relevant brief!! 🙂


Filter messages

We will always email you but if you want us to WhatsApp you too, create a WhatsApp group with all listed on this profile and TV Twins (+44 7752440376) and send a short message to open the group.

We do send quite a lot of emails so advice you to set up a filter in your email client.
