OUR GOAL

YOUR SATISFACTION.
Vegas Background Services:
-Feature Films, Television, Commercials, Music Videos, Industrials, Infomercials, Conventions and Events.
-SAG, AFTRA & non-union general and specialty extras casting.
-Online Talent Database. ALL of the talent registered in person. ALL of the digital photos on the website were taken by us in our office. So you can be confident in knowing that the person you pick from a photo is the person that shows up.
-The results of in person registration at our office are invaluable. You will not find any other casting directors that know the talent like we do.
-We cast all types including the hard to find types.
-Our office is open for registration 5 days a week all year long, resulting in new fresh faces on a week to week basis.
-Since we are dealing with fresh faces, we go over set policies with talent at check-in everyday to ensure everyone is "In the know". This eliminates problems & avoids possible headaches for your crew.
-You can pick & choose the talent yourself by going to our home page titled "Talent Search". No password needed. Just give us the "Talent ID" of the person or people that you want us to cast.
-We are highly skilled and professional on-set casting directors that can also provide talent coordinators when needed.
-Plan on working with friendly, outgoing & professional staff.
-All SAG Station 12 and Taft-Hartley paperwork completed when needed.
-I-9 and payroll voucher review for submission to your payroll company if need be.
-We pay attention to details and are well organized.
-We are flexible & fast thinking so we can handle any casting need or emergency 24/7.
-Follow-up services after wrap of production to make sure that all of your needs have been met.
