If the payments went into their account, they take 5% and I get the rest, that works fine by me - it's just if this is okay legally? In that way I would still be freelance in the nature of work, but being paid everything through them it would be as though they were my sole employer I believe? I sent their details to Rene. I will PM you Ian with their website if that's okay. I've Hoover company searched them and the company is registered and they've passed the Bar which is good :-) I believe they are fine as a company, but their turnover seems small. Less than $100k per year. |

I'm a relatively successful filmmaker. I've worked with the BBC, EMI, Red Bull and a number of different brands. In the UK I have my own Production Company as well as being repped by a Production Company for commercials.

Reason why we would have to go down this route is because we don't have a relationship with an agent who would be able to get us work in the States as we don't know anyone.

If you're insisting on independence from the moment you land, then perhaps there is no appropriate visa for you.
Given your earlier posts, I'd have to think that you are in a good position to seek out a genuine agent, and obtain a reasonable contract. Also, use of the word 'desperate' usually leads to nothing good. |

Beyond that information, I'm not wiling to say one way or the other whether or not they're reputable... I'm simply not in a position to make that sort of determination. Ian |

A normal agent would charge between 10-20%, so I don't mind paying the 5%. However, it's more the legal side of things and whether this all okay to do.
