Casting by Maggie is a casting agency in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador. We keep a database of people who are interested in extra work, modeling and auditions. We link children and adults with different advertising agencies, TV shows or photographers that require models or actors for different jobs.
We are hired by film or television producers, ad agencies, and photographers to find talent for their projects. These projects may demand a certain age, look or person with specific talents or skills. We also rent out the database to film and production companies so they can access your profiles and hire you directly.
We cross reference our database, choose suitable people and contact them to see if they are interested and available for the project then submit a selection of options to the producers. We may audition and / or submit up to 5 times as many people as required.
COMMERCIAL CASTING . Shoot date March 1-3 , 2025 . Under ACTRA Commercial agreement .
We’re looking to cast a large group ( 40+) of ethnically and culturally diverse elementary school students. Together, the group should feel about 7-9 years old.
We’re looking for all types of kids - to represent the diverse populations we have in Canada. We will be casting a large number of white, Asian, Latinx and BIPOC performers to represent the realities of kids in Canada today, inclusive of children from all backgrounds and faiths, all genders and gender expressions, as well as any other lived experiences such as disabilities, etc.
Our group of children should be relatable and likeable. They should be able to speak directly to camera, comfortable being themselves. The crux of our script is hearing students talk about their futures with confidence and ease, as if they were asked by someone in their life what they want to be when they grow up. Although the answers are scripted, the delivery should be genuine and typical of any kid their age.
Please apply through your profile at www.castingbymaggie.com. All accepted applicants will be required to submit a video audition. Instructions will come from Maggie Keiley.
