Hey everyone! I'm new on here. I was wondering if anybody had any outside opinions on some of the San Francisco agencies such as The Talent House and JE Talent. I want to submit for a few and play the local market but I'm having a hard time researching these agencies. Any advice or opinions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks Smiler

The best agencies in SF and only ones worth submitting to, in order, are:

1)JE Talent
2)Stars, the Agency
3)Look Talent
4)Tonry Talent
5)Marla Dell

I have heard of Talent House but it is supposedly brand new and of no consequence-yet anyway. There are a few crappy agencies to not bother with such as Top, Panda, Boom, and Generations.

I live and perform in the SF Bay Area. Here you can go in and drop off headshots and resumes. Most of the agencies are friendly. Do not hesitate to go in and introduce yourself. You aren't going to find much information out there on these agencies. best bet is to talk to bay area actors.

Hope this helps.

Thanks eyezoncash!

I'm curious, are you represented by any of the agencies? I'm not new to acting but I am new to the business side of it.It's great to hear that most of the agencies are approachable and that there are fellow Bay Area actors on here as well! Any more advice you can give on the whole agency matter or any personal experiences would be extremely appreciated. I'm planning to submit to as many as I can this summer after I graduate from college. Thanks again!

I second LADelight! I was repped by Stars and Marla Dell, when I was in the bay area. Great agencies, but it was a while back.

Great Energy up north Smiler
