Selection Criteria & Casting Concept
Our Portfolio We have a portfolio of People and Characters that customers can access at any time. Our Models are selected according to accurate measurements and individuality. The portfolio is broad, so that all customer requirements can be met. In addition to typical beauty standards, we place great emphasis on strong character types with expressive faces, memorable features or other special characteristics. We are always looking for new people that fascinate.
Guaranteed Quality After their registration at UCM Management, our characters get their own profile. Here they describe themselves as much detailed as possible, which later allows our customers to search for specific criteria. Before being released, the data is checked by our bookers together with the candidates in the agency. In addition to visual appearance, talents and skills are also specified in the profiles. These must be supported by video proof.
Our Process The detailed presentation of the models saves our customers time and therefore money, as casting times can be reduced to a minimum. The customer can filter out suitable models by process of elimination before the casting. Real-time requests provide the customer with binding results in just a few hours and short-term requests are thus possible. Each request is confirmed as binding. Moreover, accurate checking of the models means we guarantee the accuracy of the information.
Our Service UCM management places great emphasis on simplifying communication between the models, the agency and the customer. Job requests are given without filtering to the models and by simply clicking they confirm them. Even though this means a great saving on the number of emails and phone calls, we are available and accessible for the models round the clock.
