To join our agency you will need to submit photographs and relevant information via our website upon which you will receive a reply as to whether your application was successful.
I have been accepted for an interview, does this mean I can join the agency?
If you have been accepted for an interview this means we are possibly interested in signing you up as a new Munchkins talent. Munchkins likes to meet with the children and parents before accepting a child into the agency and assess whether your child is suitable for potential work within the industry.
We are highly selective and only represent children that are confident or show potential thus our reputation for supplying the industry with suitable children.
This is also an opportunity for you to ask us questions you may have. We hold our interviews on Mondays and Wednesdays between 10am-4pm.
Am I able to be registered with another agency?
Absolutely not. We work very hard to promote your child under the banner of Munchkins and if you are listed on another agencies' books it we will not be accepted.
As we all work with similar clients we have found that it is not ethical to be listed with another Agency as it only causes the clients confusion and other implications in relation to commissions, etc.
Prior to accepting an interview with Munchkins we make it your responsibility to inform us. We only register children on the condition they are not with another Agency.
Am I too young/ old to join Munchkins?
Munchkins represents babies from around 5 months of age through to their teenage years. We also represent "real families" as a lot of our clients prefer this to booking only models. If you are interested in also being represented by Munchkins please ask one of our friendly staff how.
Parents, grandmothers, grandfather, aunties, uncles, or children over 17 years also wanting to be represented within this industry should contact our sister agency Azure Management on 13000 AZURE or alternatively visit the website on www.azuremanagement.com.au There is definately opportunities for the whole family to get involved in the industry and can be quite rewarding financially as well!
