Residents liason and local extras

Newham Film Office is pleased to announce we can now assist productions in casting extras for shoots.

Whether you're looking for film extras, walk-on's, background performers or photography models, the Film Office can help you in your search.

This exciting new service draws on the proud diversity of the Council's staff base - our ever-growing database of Newham staff displays an exciting variety of age and race - and some already have experience in this kind of work. And remember, wherever you're shooting in Newham our staff will know the location, so no difficulties in finding their way!

We know that budgets can vary and so we can advise you on appropriate pay rates for extras; we're happy to discuss pay on a case by case basis. Also, we only charge a small administration fee for this service should you choose to use it.

If you'd like to have a look at our database just let us know - there's no obligation to take it up.

So if you're shooting in Newham any time soon be sure to ask us about our film extras, or simply contact us with your request.
