Both of us hail originally from an acting background and have worked extensively in theatre, TV, film and commercials.
As actresses we often found that we came across a 'closed door' situation, so when we set up Crocodile Casting we made it our aim to constantly be accessing new faces and fresh talent. We have made a huge effort to form strong relationships with theatrical and model agencies from all over Great Britain.
At Crocodile our aim is to provide the client with the best possible choice of artistes. We strongly believe that our previous experience as actresses enhances our ability to cast & direct creatively.
Being able to interpret a casting brief and understand the requirements of the Director and creative team, so that we know exactly what type of artiste is required is something we have always been very successful at.
Each job is treated with the utmost care and attention; we know just how important it is to get it right first time as budgets are sometimes very tight!
So no matter what your casting requirements are (however unusual!!) We are the team to find them for you!!
