Where DRAMA takes you

A programme that leads to work.

Agency · Mob Talents

From school to agency.

DRAMA is a bridge to work. With our in-house agency Mob Talents and our active collaboration of many years with Roberto Almagià (Mediavision Artists), the programme leads you towards joining an agency, invitations to castings and audition offers for films, TV series and commercials.

Possible placement with Mob Talents is assessed between the end of the second year and the start of the third, based on artistic evaluation and the path followed.

  • Path towards joining an agency
  • Targeted invitations to castings
  • Audition offers for films, TV series and commercials
  • Tutoring on self-tapes and audition preparation
