Atlanta Reel Kids offers a few opportunities that you can join in on to broaden your network and deepen your knowledge of this wonderful but challenging business. It can seem like everything is being kept from you on purpose. It doesn't have to be that way. We're here to help you find what you're looking for.
We have a community called "The Village" that exists to help you navigate the ins and outs of getting started and then thriving within this amazing film industry with your child actor. We've seen over 100 families get started in this business in the last 13 years. The percentage has been about 50/50 that have decided to stay in. The percentage of those that have found real success is even smaller. At some level, that is just the business. In some cases, the difference has been a lack of knowledge in the business and a lack of network causing opportunities to be missed. The Village has been a dream for many years and is now a reality.
You see spark of something in your kid. Other people probably will too. The Village gives you as much information as possible to help you stay informed in this changing business so that you can recognize and win with the opportunities that will come your way in the film industry.
Are you lost while taping? This business comes with an entirely new vocabulary and set of skills that are required of you. It's easy to get lost in the process. It gets easier with time but we help you get there faster.

"William and Victoria managed a group of 15 9-12 year old kids on our set and did an absolutely incredible job! They ensured that our production followed all of the guidelines for working with minors on set. Not only did they manage protocol but they went above and beyond to make sure that the cast members all felt welcomed and had a fun during any downtime. I’ll definitely be bringing them on board for the next one!”

"Working with William and Victoria has been absolutely incredible for my daughter Charing and I! Their advice and guidance has been second to none—clear, practical, and packed with insider knowledge that’s fast-tracked our entry into the television and film industry. They’ve made the whole process exciting and motivating, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to have them in our corner."

Having the right CLC makes a huge difference. Some just entertain your kid or make sure your kid is doing his/her work— and, honestly, sometimes it feels a little pointless for their presence because they don’t seem to be doing anything. But not William and Victoria. They pride themselves on going the extra mile to connect with you and your child and your specific needs. They delicately ensure that rules are being followed and advocate for your child’s rights and hours (down the the minute). With them, I know I can rest easy knowing that my kids will be taken care of properly on set.
