Newcastle Talent for Screen Drama and Quayside Campaigns
Newcastle has hosted long-running television drama productions for decades, and that steady screen-industry presence keeps casting briefs moving through the North East in a way few comparably sized cities can match. STELLA scouts local talent against that specific need, from background and feature work through to the lifestyle stills that accompany a production's press push.
The Quayside's bars, restaurants and hotels commission a constant run of hospitality and lifestyle content, and Newcastle's fashion-retail scene has a reputation for going out properly that advertisers lean on directly. Applications are remote from the start — phone photos and a short form — with our team travelling in for the shoot day itself.
