These Terms & Conditions govern the relationship between Bizzy Agency (“the Agency”) and the Artist and/or Parent/Legal Guardian (“the Artist”).


Proceeding with payment, activating a profile, or undertaking work through the Agency constitutes full acceptance of these Terms. A copy to accept digitally in acknowledgement of these terms is also supplied in your profile. Proceeding is in acceptance of all terms nevertheless.

  • Featured Artists (newborn to adult)

  • Babies

  • Models

  • Adult Actors

  • Child Actors


Commission rates for Adult Actors are confirmed upon signing. All other Terms apply equally unless otherwise stated.



1.2 Non-Sole Representation

The Agency reserves the right to require the Artist to enter into a fixed-term sole representation agreement.



1.4 Child Actors Division (Sole Representation)


The Child Actors Division is a specialist screen-focused division representing professionally trained child actors aged 7 years and above with proven television and/or film credits.


Artists accepted into this division confirm that they meet the eligibility criteria required at the time of joining, including holding an active Spotlight membership and possessing a minimum of one verified professional on-screen credit.


Representation within this division is strictly on a sole agency contract basis. The Artist must not be under existing exclusive representation elsewhere at the time of signing and must not enter into any additional representation agreements without the Agency’s prior written consent.


The Artist confirms that all information provided to the Agency, including training, credits and representation status, is accurate and complete. The Agency reserves the right to terminate representation should any material information be found to be inaccurate, misleading or withheld.


Where an ident has been submitted as part of the onboarding process, the Artist grants the Agency permission to retain and review such material for internal assessment and representation purposes only. No material will be published or distributed without appropriate consent.


The Agency reserves the right to move the Artist to an alternative division, or withdraw representation from this specialist division, should eligibility criteria no longer be met.


The Artist must maintain an active Spotlight membership for the duration of their representation within the Child Actors Division. Failure to do so may result in suspension from the division or termination of representation.

Upon acceptance into the Child Actors Division, the Artist will be issued with a separate Sole Representation Agreement governing the terms of representation and outlining commissions.

Our Child Actors Division is a specialist screen division for children with formal script training and credited roles in scripted television or film productions. It exists to meet casting requirements that specifically call for demonstrated dialogue work and narrative performance experience, while our wider Talent Division continues to represent artists across all areas of the industry.
