- IMPACT CASTING PRODUCTION AGREEMENT Working on a production? Have a read through how it works.
You can expect at all times to be treated in a professional and respectful manner. For us that
means we will do five things:
Strive to understand and meet your specific needs: we will go the extra mile to get you the
Artistes you need, where and when you need them.
Provide a named and dedicated staff member who will work hard for you: our staff are the
best in the business and you should feel confident in their hands.
Communicate promptly: we will be available, proactive, honest and straightforward.
Deal with finance quickly and with accuracy: we aim to get it right first time, every time.
Make sure that the Artistes we provide are clear: about what to do, where to be and how to
work with you in a way that we can be proud of.
By proceeding with booking our artists you agree that you have read and understood and
agree with our terms as detailed below.
