Want to be a

Child Actor or Model?

At Bubblegum, we represent some of Australia's brightest young stars, but even so, we're always on the lookout for fresh new faces and talent.

If your child is aged anywhere from 3 months to 18 years of age, and you think they might have what it takes to shine in front of a camera or on stage, then we want to hear from you.

Apply Now

We'll set up a quick informal chat where we'll get a feel for your child's suitability for working in the industry.

The lucky kids that make it onto our books benefit from in-house workshops and coaching sessions to help them brush up on their skills. They'll also get great advice and tips from the Bubblegum team, some of whom have worked as child models and actors themselves! We'll even arrange a portfolio shoot with our in-house photographer.

We want all the kids on our books to have their chance to shine and if that means working twice as hard to make it happen, then that's what we'll do!

BUBBLEGUM’S TWO GOLDEN RULES

Before we take a look at your application we just have to let you know our two golden rules with regards to signing talent.

  • * We only represent babies, kids, and teens in the Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane areas. If you live more than 90 minutes from Melbourne or Sydney or 60 minutes Brisbane, then we’re really sorry, but we can’t represent your child.
  • * We also only represent children who are not signed with another agency. This is standard practice across the entertainment industry.


These rules apply to everyone and we really can’t bend or break them for any kids no matter how cute or talented they are 🙁 

We Have the Happiest Kids

Very professional agency, who continue to find suitable work for their clients and the communication has been amazing with quick turn around. Most importantly very experienced in working with Children of all ages. Would highly recommend Bubblegum Casting to those parents who are looking to get their children into modelling/acting.

My daughter has just recently joined Bubblegum Casting and they've been amazing from the first interview and right through to booking her first photo shoot. She has been put forward / shortlisted for many opportunities since joining. Adam and Maria and all the team at Bubblegum have been fantastic and communication has been excellent. We are very excited to be a part of the Bubblegum team and highly recommend them

What a professional outfit, from the very beginning of the process. All the staff we interacted with really showed endless passion for what they do and it clearly showed in the final photos that were produced. They made us all feel special even though you see so many families on a day to day basis. Thank you

I couldn’t be happier with the team at Bubblegum, best decision we made was to engage them to manage my son. In less than a year he has had two major commercials, and I was also fortunate enough to benefit from the professionalism of Bubblegum and landing my own casting role and winning the job! Thank you very much for all that you do 🙏🏽 Elina

Some Frequently Asked Questions

We’re the longest running children’s talent agency in Australia with a reputation for matching the right kids with the right clients.

We also pride ourselves on being industry leaders with an innovative approach to preparing our talent for a long career in front of the camera.

Please submit your child’s details and a clear photograph through our Apply Now link.

Once we have received your application, we’ll let you know when our next open casting event will take place in your city. Bear in mind that we only accept applications from children who are not signed up with another agency.

.

This is the million dollar question. We can offer no guarantees in regard to how often your child will work. We do not know what work will come up from one day to the next, what our clients will want to advertise or what age groups or size that they will require.

However, we do choose our children carefully and our hit rate is very high. A large percentage of our children do obtain work and we like to think that’s down to our great coaching!

No Agency can offer guarantees. What we can promise is that we will promote your child to the best of our ability and we will put your child forward for all jobs that he/she is suitable for. Ultimately our clients have the final say on who gets the job.

At Bubblegum, we only take on children who we strongly believe will get work. So if your child is lucky enough to join the agency, we’re confident that they’ll get an opportunity to shine in front of the cameras.
