Jackie and the team at CFT are absolutely WONDERFUL! They are honest, professional, knowledgeable, and kind to their talent. The team is with you every step of the way from casting to booking to payment. The main reason CFT is my only Florida agent is because I TRUST them which is hard to do in this industry. I cannot recommend them enough to actors and models in the Central Florida area.

We randomly met Jackie at a Halloween event a few years ago and I was at a SAG audition the next week. We have consistently been sent on amazing auditions and have never been asked to spend any money. We booked Disney and Sea World and have been really close to many other great paying gigs. I recommend this agency for sure!
