Terms of Business
a) 1066 Casting acts as negotiator only and is not
a party to the resulting contract. For this reason 1066 Casting cannot accept
responsibility for non-fulfilment or breach of any such contract, but every
reasonable safeguard is assured.
b) 1066 Casting seeks to negotiate agreements
for The Artist in those branches of the entertainment field for which The Artist
is suited by reason of suitability
c) For the provision of this service 1066 Casting charges a fee equivalent to an agreed percentage of the contracted fee
receivable by the Artist, in accordance with our Commission Policy Statement.
1066 Casting will also collect any applicable tax (for example VAT) which is
due under English Law. The charge may be made to either the Artist or Producer
subject to the negotiated acceptance of the party in question.
d) The Fee (commission) is charged only after
the provision of the service has been completed. Therefore there is no
provision for a refund of commission in any circumstances.
e) Where charged to the Artist, the fee
(commission) will still be due if the Artist fails to appear, said
non-appearance being as a result of any action or inaction of the
Artist.
f) Where charged to the Producer the fee
(commission) is normally payable in advance and is always
non-refundable.
g) Cancellation of any contract negotiated
through 1066 Casting is not normally possible without the agreement of all
concerned parties. In the event of cancellation by either party without cause
of illness or other unavoidable circumstances, 1066 Casting reserves the right
to levy a charge of up to 15% (+ VAT) of the agreed fee against the cancelling
party, to cover the additional expenses involved in the said cancellation. This
is in addition to any amounts that may be payable by either party under the
terms of the said contract.
h) 1066 Casting normally acts as negotiator only
and as such may not enter into agreements on behalf of third parties. If at any
time 1066 Casting is authorised to enter into agreements on behalf of the
Artist or the Producer for any individual booking, such authority will be made
known to both parties during the negotiation.
i) 1066 Casting may receive fees due to the
Artist (for example in the event of a no pickup booking or in the course of
arriving at a dispute resolution) but must account to the Artist for any such
payments that it receives.
j) Agreements are made separately for each
booking, and there is no requirement for any Artist to accept any booking
offered. The Artist can therefore end the relationship by simply not accepting
any further bookings and the Agent can end the relationship by not offering any
such bookings.
k) If any Artist seeking employment under a
normal non-exclusive agency representation agreement (i.e. who has not signed
under a management or sole representation contract) should wish to cease being
represented by 1066 Casting and have their name and details removed from any
promotional materials issued by the Agency they can give a minimum of 30 days
notice in writing. From that point no further promotional materials featuring
the Artist will be created, but it must be understood that it is not possible to
remove information from hard copy products already published.
l) The Artist will be required to honour any and
all contracts negotiated and accepted prior to the expiry of such written
notice. The Artist must undertake to ensure that any ongoing commission or
other financial remuneration due is paid to 1066 Casting promptly and in
accordance with these Terms of Business.
