The ground floor of our building is home to the Sandra Reynolds team of bookers and is always a buzzing hive of activity... Each month we share a little bit of news from the booking desk, so read on to find out what we have been up to recently!

This blog post is an exciting one...

We have been listening to: We have had BBC Radio One on recently, enjoying how the genre changes throughout the day. 

We have been reading: Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow - a book about friendship, creativity and collaboration.

A few favourite brands we've worked with: Musto, My Doris, Beyond Nine, Coral Eyewear, Travelodge, Magners, Lily & Me, Boux Avenue, Newmarket 875, Gunhill Clothing, Primark, Specsavers, TFL, National Grid, Amazon and Cadburys (to name just a few).

A fun memory: In August, our Actors Booker Daisy received a thoughtful gift from SR Actor Simon, who had just returned from a recent booking in Greece. It was a bottle of Ouzo, an authentic Greek drink!

TEAM UPDATES

CASTING DAYS

Over the summer, we had a casting day held every month in our London studios, we were in our element and so were our models! We met lots of lovely new faces that have now been added to our divisions. Meeting all of our new talent in person gives us a chance to see what they're like in front of the camera and get to know them better.

We also introduced some new elements to our casting days, which were Polaroids for our new face models to take home to remember their day by. We were lucky to have a chat with some of our new faces, make sure to stay tuned across our socials to get the latest information and top tips directly from our talent themselves. For now, let's have a catch-up with our new face model Sara Raouf...

SR: "What is your mantra?"

SARA: "My mantra would be to not take life too seriously!"

SR: "How long have you been modelling for?"

SARA: "I've been modelling for around 10 years now, I started at 23."

SR: "Do you have a favourite campaign that you've been on?"

SARA: "I did a campaign for St. Tropez, which is a fake tan brand! We put some fake tan on the day before to prepare, and I was quite orange, but it was really fun and I remember it for this reason."

SR: "How did you hear about SR?"

SARA: "One of my friends is actually with you guys, and she told me all about SR. I've also come to SR before for some castings myself."

SPILL THE TEA IS BACK!

September saw the launch of our new social series 'Daisy and G, Spill the Tea'. In episode one, model bookers Daisy & G explore some frequently asked questions that the booking desk often receives, such as, "How to apply to the agency?", "What do we look for in a model?" and "What is Pay Next Day?". Make sure to tune in to the first episode on our Instagram and TikTok profiles, for a quick link CLICK HERE. 

In episode two, Daisy & G will be exploring the topic of 'What to expect from an SR casting day.', with an exclusive Q&A interview with our Head of New Faces, Katie Barnes, featuring all of your top questions. Episode two will launch in October, so keep your eyes on our socials! 

EXPECT MORE BEHIND-THE-SCENES

Recently, we have been working closely with our models to provide some more behind-the-scenes content, giving you an insight into what it's like to be an SR London model. Transparency is very important to us here at Sandra Reynolds Agency, so we want to be able to show our talented models and actors' experiences directly from them. 

Check out some behind-the-scenes of SR model couple Matt & India for holiday company Hoseasons HERE. 

SCOUTING 

While most of our scouting happens in the digital realm through our model and actor applications, as well as on our social media platforms where we use the hashtags #ScoutMeSR & #ScoutMeSRJ, we also relish the opportunity to scout in person. Whether it's at our London office and studios or our Head Office in Norwich, our team enjoys the personal touch. In August, our Senior Model Booker, Georgia, and Juniors Model Booker, Poppy, hit the streets of Norwich to discover some new face junior models and families. August was an ideal time for scouting, as it coincided with the summer holidays, allowing them to hand out lots of scouting cards!

THANK YOU DAISY!

This summer, we were fortunate to have the talented Daisy join us as a Booking Assistant. Currently pursuing her Acting degree at university, Daisy proved to be a natural fit for the role. Her time on the booking desk was brilliant, leaving a positive impact on both our team and the talent we work with.

As her summer stint comes to a close, it's no secret that everyone, from our colleagues to the talent, will miss her. However, we're excited to wish Daisy all the best in her final year at university. Good luck with your studies, Daisy!

RECENT WORK 

As a busy model and acting agency, our team of bookers provides models and talent for both photographic campaigns and TV commercials for some of the world's best-known brands. We feel so lucky to work with such wonderful clients... Recently booking our models and actors with clients including Magners, Lily & Me, Boux Avenue, Newmarket 875, Gunhill Clothing, Primark, Specsavers, TFL, National Grid, Amazon and Cadburys (to name just a few).
