Are there any good british agents in or around Malaga.
Would like to find work in television or film having had plenty of experience of these mediums.
Any advice would be gratefully appreciated.
Living in Spain but don’t speak the language too well for now. but still learning and picking it up fine.
Anne.

You might need to find an agent in Madrid or Barcelona, even if the work occurs in Malaga.  I’ve made commercials in Spain and have used actors from various countries, including Eastern and Northern Europeans who couldn’t speak Spanish, but they were rep’d in one or both of the two biggest cities.  There are some production companies in and around Marbella - you could try them direct but as all their work came from the real-estate boom (corporate videos for builders etc) they’ll be pretty quiet just now.

Many thanks for your’e info and tell your’e wife that Glasgow girls are best (being one myself) I have looked at Marbella casting and they seem very professional, so might look them up.
Once again many thanks for taking the time to reply to my topic.

Dear administrator,
Anne the actress here.
I did look at finding work in the film industry and was impressed as you give very sound advice, and having spent many hours as a film extra before qualifying as drama student , I related to everything you mentioned.
The stage I am at now, is that I would like try and continue my career which I had started successfully in Glasgow.
I have live in Spain for over two years now and have heard nothing of any postings for actors in this country,Where does one look?  apart from the uk websites I subscribe to.
Many thanks for you’re input.
