Kids Acting Agency

The Logo

• I designed 3 different logos based on my decision of wanting to do an acting agency for kids with a crèche and chaperone service.

The Business Card

• The business card gives my company a more professional look.

• I chose to make it look plane and simple so that it stood out.

Letter Head

• Yet again its plane and simple, but with a more enthusiastic ‘Childs’ twist.

• I decided on this as it is a company for children and the wave makes it look more child friendly.

Business Plan

• I have built up contacts in the industry, ranging from catering to stunts. With this advantage I have people who can then recommend me for services.

• I hope to build up my reputation as a business, in both the film industry and the general public.

• I aim to offer the best that the industry has seen, and give top care and services to the children we are responsible for.

• We have contacts with suppliers that we can buy our needed equipment off.

Qualifications and Skills

• I have studied early childhood studies at Manchester Metropolitan University, giving me both the knowledge and hands-on experience in childcare needed for this job.

• All staff will need to be trained to work with the children, with relevant and sufficient qualifications.

• Staff will be CRB checked and first aid qualified before working with the children.

Setting up the business• I will do most of the processes my self but I

will have to hire a number of staff in a couple of times a week as I do not have the experience or knowledge to do this myself.

• I will still be involved in every step and decision made for the company.

• I have a business plan of what I would like to achieve in the next 3 years. Buying a portable service is one of them.

Operating the company

• As any business personal will know, there will be competitors and collaborators.

• I have both. But I can use this to my advantage by collaborating with other companies that can better the size and how well known my company is.

• I will need a number of facilities; an office for my staff, with rooms to look after the kids in safety, a kitchen and toilet facilities.

• Equipment hire is important for when equipment is too expensive or its wouldn’t be used very much.

Premises

• My ideal location would be in the Coventry area where I am based. I would need offices for staff to work in, and a room or two to keep the children when they are in our care.

• I have looked at a number of properties and found the most suitable.

• I would like to buy a double Decker coach and transform it into a pace where we can keep the kids whilst they are waiting to be on the set. I would keep the seats downstairs, but make the upstairs into a crèche.

Chosen Premises• This is my ideal premises it is situated on the ground floor in the quadrant,

inside Coventry's city centre.• If offers 3 offices on one floor.• There are toilets and kitchen facilities available on site.• Insurance, water and electricity is included.
