Wales Talent for a Growing Drama and Coastal Economy
BBC Wales and S4C have built a genuine drama-production economy around Cardiff, one that regularly needs both English-speaking and bilingual Welsh-speaking talent for the range of shows it commissions each year. STELLA casts for both, building a roster that reflects Wales's actual bilingual production market rather than treating it as a single-language market by default.
Beyond Cardiff's studios, the coastline and national parks — Eryri (Snowdonia) and Pembrokeshire among them — drive a steady outdoor and tourism-campaign economy that depends on real landscape rather than a styled backdrop or borrowed scenery. Applications and scouting run remotely from phone photos and a short form, with our team on location for shoot days.
Boards for Drama and Coastal Wales
Drama & Screen Production
BBC Wales and S4C's drama slate needs both English-speaking and bilingual Welsh-speaking talent; our screen board is built to reflect that actual production requirement, not a single-language assumption.
Coastal & National Park Tourism
Eryri and Pembrokeshire supply outdoor and tourism imagery that depends on genuine landscape and light; we represent talent who read as at home outdoors, not visiting for the day.
Cardiff Corporate & Commercial
Cardiff's commercial and corporate casting scene runs independently of both London and Bristol; our corporate board is scouted specifically for that Welsh market.
Why Wales Casts Through STELLA
Bilingual casting where it matters
For S4C and Welsh-language productions, we cast talent who can genuinely work in Welsh, not English-speaking talent styled to appear bilingual.
The Whole Country, Not Just Cardiff
We scout Swansea, Newport, Eryri and Pembrokeshire, not only the capital's drama-production scene.

Applications run on phone photos and a short form from anywhere in Wales, with no studio visit required.
