AFTER THE AUDITION

After the audition, Bubblegum may talk to you about the role and your child’s prospects. Here are some of the terms we may use and the details we may give you.


AVAILABILITY CHECK


On occasions, your availability may be checked by Bubblegum prior to or after your audition. This does not mean you have secured the job; it’s simply to check your availability.


ON HOLD


Period of time before the Talent secures the job; meaning the child/teenager has been shortlisted. If you have not heard from the office and the On Hold date has passed this means you were not selected for the job. Unfortunately, this is out of our control.


EXTRA (T.V)


Part of a crowd or background; not required to speak but may be asked to mime.


EXTRA (COMMERCIALS)


Part of a crowd or atmospheric scene; appears only incidentally or in the background with no individual dialogue.

Short-term or ongoing Main Role in a T.V. series.


MAIN / LEAD ROLE

CONTRACTS FOR ROLES


Bubblegum may send or email
contracts to you for your signature and perusal. We have to have 2 or 3 copies, depending on the Client, and these have to come back to us A.S.A.P. (within the week as payment can depend on the contract’s signatory). If you wish to retain a copy feel free to make yourself a photocopy.


Be aware that the part your child has been booked for may not always be the part they end up playing. Unfortunately this is beyond Bubblegum’s control. Once again, we ask that you please contact us if you have any queries after the job is completed.
