Australia's longest-running children's talent agency — since 1981

Your child's shot at the spotlight, done the honest way.

The money question, answered

Representation is free and earned on standards — not bought. Money never moves your child up the queue.

Two golden rules — before you apply

📍You need to be close to a studio

We represent babies, kids and teens within about 90 minutes of Melbourne or Sydney, and 60 minutes of Brisbane. Further out and we sadly can’t do your child justice — no matter how cute or talented they are.

🤝One agency at a time

We only sign children who aren’t currently with another agency. That’s standard practice across the industry, and it keeps things fair for everyone.

Form playing up? Email your application and a clear, smiling photo to applications@bubblegumcasting.com.au — and add us to your safe senders so you never miss an email.

Good questions

Why join Bubblegum Casting?

We’re the longest-running children’s talent agency in Australia, with a reputation for matching the right kids with the right clients — and an honest, supportive way of preparing them for a long career in front of the camera.

Do I have to shoot with POP! Photography?

No. Any professional photographer whose work meets our standards is fine. We offer POP! because it’s built for exactly this and takes the guesswork out — but it’s entirely your call.

Do I have to do the Development Program to be represented?

No. The gate is standards, not payment. Most families find it’s the fastest way to meet those standards, but you’re free to get there your own way.

How do you get paid?

Commission only. We earn when your child books and is paid for a job — never before, and never a fee just to be on our books.

Can you guarantee my child work?

No — and be cautious of anyone who promises it. What we can promise is that we’ll put your child forward for every job they’re suited to. The client always has the final say, and we choose our kids carefully because we genuinely back them.
