At college in my final year, we all as third year students are represented by Bird College Agency.    We also had lessons from the agent to help us build and work on our portfolio and professional career. The agency and college is it give us slot of support by inviting so many experienced professionals to talk to us about the industry, who are already working and outside companies to audition us for jobs. All those invitations, helps us to start building up some connections for the future and taste a little bit of the "outside world".  At the sometime during that period, the college invited many different dancers and choreographers to teach or for different events.

Thousands of production companies, broadcasters, ad agencies , and independent casting directors use Spotlight as a casting resource. Their clients range from large organisations such as the BBC, ITV, and Channel 4, to small production companies and individual casting directors. I used this website, last year because my college advised us to make an account to help us find future auditions even if we've left. I haven't used it that many times during my time at college purely because I had my college agency to sending me all the important auditions. Spotlight is a great and very successful system but I don't feel like it benefited me because in reality it's so much easier to have an agent than just this. Another reason is, you have pay every year to keep y...
