Inside The Extras Dept.

So proud of our very own Carla Stronge on winning her first Emmy for Outstanding Casting for a Drama for all her hard work on Game of Thrones!

AND WE’RE LIVE! Slots for our coming photo shoot on Saturday 27th August are now open for booking. If you’re interested in improving your Extras NI profile, the number one thing we recommend is having a professional photo taken. The timing of this shoot couldn’t be better as we are gearing up for a busy period here at Extras NI HQ.

Working with Children – Extras NI’s members and Disclosure Certificates

From 1st January 2016 PACT (Producers Alliance for Cinema and Television) along with the BBC, Channel 4, Channel 5, ITV & SKY require that all Extras who are employed by productions involving children, must have obtained a valid disclosure certificate within the previous 18 months. PACT together with the broadcasters are committed to safeguarding children working in our industry.

Approximately 60% of those who attended our previous photoshoot have been contacted with an offer of work on one of our productions.

If you are interested in improving your Extras NI profile, then there is only one thing that we can recommend, have a professional photo taken.
