TESTIMONIALS AND FEEDBACK

From Our Clients

I recently used Icarus Talent For a photo shoot which went extremely well. The models were very professional and Fun to work with. Chris and Petra organised everything very well, we had hairstylists, makeup artists and security. Every detail thought through. So I highly recommend them and will use again in the future." Suzanne Carlson, Vintage Addiction

“This is amazing - thank you very much for being so organised with all of this!” “You guys have been so organised with all your paperwork, I really appreciate it!” Roslyn Lusty, Extras Coordinator Roman Empire: Reign of Blood (Roman Empire Ltd):

“[Kiwi] was a great project and was really good to have you onboard. Thanks for all your support and glad you enjoyed it!  Your talent were lovely to work with and we can all look forward to seeing the finished project.” “…Your guys all looked great on set and they had a fantastic attitude.” Lauren Owens, Extras Coordinator A Horse Called Kiwi (Rogue Productions):
 
"I started a short film project requiring 3 male characters and 1 female character, the preproduction period ... was plagued with difficulties. The main challenge was inherently with finding a suitable shooting location and a suitable cast, the people I found online were genuinely uncommitted with a steady dropout rate... It was hard to shoot a decent movie when people kept on pulling out especially on late notice, shoot dates kept on getting delayed... Icarus Talent helped me out so much by introducing committed, talented and hardworking actors/talents - Aaron Giles, Isaiah Balenti, Aveael Webb and Joel Rindelaub - throughout the production period. They always turned up on time, made a great deal of effort to assume their roles, and helped out the project by personally travelling far to shoot locations, and a special thanks to Aveael for kindly letting us use parts of her home as the film set. [They took] the time to attend cast meetings (typically 2/3 hours twice a week) [and] were all very reliable to the schedule which was planned in advance. I could not speak more highly of the talents from Icarus, whom all contributed to their roles with a very high degree of professionalism on set and off set, and with great commitment and talent brought the characters from the script to the life in the production phase. Without them I don’t think this film will have been. I felt we all had a great deal of fun, it was a very fun and social atmosphere, all of them treated me and the rest of the crew with great respect and professionalism. I feel grateful and privileged to have had the opportunity to work with such wonderful people." Zhou Evans, The Unexpected Visitor (Written/directed Zhou Evans)
 
(Of our talent): ”They were all great! Thanks so much.” Nicole Quinton, Production Co-ordinator, Cold Case (Screentime)

From Our Models and Talent

"I have been with Icarus Talent for a period of two years. Working alongside Chris and Petra has been a breath of fresh air. Combining the rustic charm of a home office on their expansive horse farm with a down to earth attitude they present as authentic, open and approachable. Their talent agency is truly a place for everyone regardless of race, gender, background or surface appearance. Combining a can do attitude with a vast array of industry contacts they have truly created something special and unique. Rather than being treated like just another number I and many others have been welcomed into the Icarus family with open arms. They have been known to go above and beyond for many of their talent, myself included in a myriad of different ways. You would be hard pressed to find an agency that cares as much as this one!" Matthew Wilson

"I would just like to thank you so much for everything you have done for me. You helped me with my confidence by always supporting me and going above and beyond to make sure I feel comfortable at all times. You have always been so professional and all of the other actors and models in your agency only have good things to say about you. The whole time I have been with your agency you have put me before yourselves and I am greateful for this. I could not recommend you guys enough and am proud to be a member of your team." Harry Smart

"...I love this agency and love what I do. I love how these guys are professional and honest, and how we are all treated as one big family.

"I found the agency to be very welcoming, accommodating and informative. The most important thing, which I appreciate, is the agency does not discriminate for colour, age or shape.
