About Southern Star Talent Agency
Southern Star Talent Agency was founded in the creative heart of Melbourne, Australia, to serve a vision: empower exceptional individuals in the entertainment industry. Our founders, themselves with deep roots in performance and talent management, recognised a glaring need for an agency committed to genuine artist growth—one that merges industry expertise with continuous education.
Over the years, Southern Star has become synonymous with integrity, trust, and success. We maintain a hands-on approach with every client, carefully crafting pathways that align with creative passions and professional aspirations. From local indie projects to nationwide television and international campaigns, our reputation for securing transformative roles and guiding talent at every career juncture sets us apart.
Central to our identity is a belief that representation means more than negotiations and contracts. We cultivate long-lasting partnerships with every artist, offering not just access to roles but the mentorship and knowledge needed to succeed sustainably.
We pride ourselves on our strong connections across Australia’s vibrant arts scene, including producers, directors, casting agents, and creative institutions. Our agency has a proven record of discovering new faces that later become household names, thanks in part to our tailored development programs and robust advocacy.
Our leadership and coaching teams are highly regarded for their professionalism, empathy, and insight. This culture of support is why so many of our alumni remain involved with Southern Star—returning as mentors, guest speakers, or simply ambassadors for our core values.
At Southern Star, transparency is key. We openly communicate opportunities, challenges, and expectations, empowering talent to make informed choices about their career paths.
Our mission is to be a trusted guide at every step—from a performer’s very first audition, to contract negotiation for lead roles, all the way to breaking into new creative fields.
Diversity and inclusion sit at the centre of our agenda. We actively champion talent from a broad spectrum of backgrounds, ensuring our work reflects the unique stories and communities that make up Australia.
We provide continuous education—both face-to-face and online—to demystify not only the craft of performance, but the business of entertainment. This empowers our clients to take ownership of their trajectory, understand their rights, and seize every chance to innovate.
Openness to feedback and a spirit of collaboration have shaped the evolution of our offerings. We frequently refine our programs in response to industry shifts, technological advancements, and the ambitions of our community.
Southern Star is more than an agent. We’re your advocate, mentor, and creative partner and we take pride in celebrating your milestones as if they were our own.
Alumni and long-term clients tell us they value not just the opportunities we open, but also the sense of belonging and camaraderie they find here.
Our agency is firmly rooted in ethical practice. Every engagement, course, and coaching session is designed with the utmost respect for our clients’ individuality and wellbeing.
We envision an Australian entertainment industry where every performer—regardless of background, age, or experience—can access the resources to realise their full potential and build lasting legacies.
Above all, Southern Star Talent Agency is driven by a profound commitment: to help you shine, not only on stage or screen, but throughout your journey as an artist.
