Welcome...

...to Extras Management. Established in 1985, Extras Management is the longest running and most established call-in service in the industry. Extras Management was created by industry professionals to help actors find work in a more efficient manner. Our industry leadership over the years has set the standard for how the casting industry works today. No casting company or call-in service can match what we do. Combining the latest in software technology with our extensive knowledge of the casting industry, we are able to accurately track an actor's photos, unique abilities and characteristics, along with their schedule of availability and booking dates. Some of the unique features of our company are:

  1. We have the most powerful database in the entire industry which includes an unlimited number of attributes that we can track along with the ability to attach a photo to that attribute. (That means if you have an LAPD uniform, we will attach a picture of you in the uniform to the database; if you have a tattoo, we will attach a picture of the tattoo to the database.)
  2. We use of the latest technologies giving you the choice of receiving notifications of bookings and details by text message, email, and/or by telephone.
  3. We are the only service open from 6:30 am until midnight on workdays with an on-call person linked into the system on weekends. (That means companies rely on us almost exclusively for rush calls, late bookings and to assist them with weekend casting needs.)
  4. Our systems are used to run several of the independent casting offices.

We have wonderful staff of friendly professionals including Kevin Crissman (the head of our operations) and Sandra Soeder (the most respected and experienced person in the industry). Sandra’s company Extra Effort merged with us many years ago. Together Sandra, Kevin and crew are taking Extras Management to new heights. We are currently welcoming all new non-union talent to register and see what we can do for you. Union Talent are encouraged to submit a headshot for consideration as we have a limited number of spots available based on demand for your particular category.

Often copied but never duplicated, we are the best in the business.
