Expand commentMy most uncomfortable and distressing case of releasing a talent from my Agency's books was for dishonesty when that talent broke a trust in a business deal not associated with the agency itself. When someone you have admired and respected for years promises a payment and then fails to keep their word, they have lost their integrity and any respect they might have commanded. As someone once said to me: "Integrity is like virginity: you only lose it once and you can never get it back".
Incidentally, no Agency should charge ANYTHING for taking a talent onto their books. At NOVA:The New Orleans Voice Agency, we represent talent on a non-exclusive basis and take commission only for work which we have generated and/or handled on talent behalf.
Here's a blog I recently posted, that shares some insight on this subject. http://blog.castingnetworks.com/3945

This is a network for you, built by you. Like most things in life, the more you participate, the greater the rewards.

You can also invite fellow creatives through the site by using the "Send Stage 32 Invites..." button on the upper right side of your profile. The more creatives, the stronger the network. The stronger the network, the more opportunities. Thanks for joining the movement and for being a part of this most talented and inspiring community.
