How we work
You brief us
Tell us about your production and the filmmaker it needs: the skills, track record and personality. We'll cover genre, length, story, ambition and tone, along with schedule, funding, and the commissioning and executive teams. All three agents have done this hundreds of times, both as heads of talent at production companies and as representatives of filmmakers.
We shortlist
Our agents work together on every role and agree a targeted selection of candidates who fit the brief. Beyond skills and availability, we weigh compatibility and existing commissioner relationships. We send you each candidate's CV or resumé and contact details, with a note on why they stand out. You're free to speak to them directly, as we're not gatekeepers. If we don't have the right person, we'll tell you quickly.
You choose
Run your own selection process as you normally would. If you engage one of our clients, we negotiate a fair deal for their services. You pay us nothing at any stage, as our commission comes from our filmmakers.
About Us
There are currently three agents at Stern & Wild - Camilla Chiverton, Natalie Spanier and its founder, Moray Coulter.
What’s New
Brands
You already know the quality of streamer productions like Formula 1: Drive To Survive and Limitless With Chris Hemsworth. Your brand can command film content with the same quality and popular appeal, made by the same filmmakers. We have the people who actually make this content, and they are used to bringing the same amazing production values to international brands and organisations. We support Reputation and Marketing heads, and the Creative, PR and Video agencies that work to them. We can recommend one talented filmmaker for your project, or we can advise you on setting up an entire production unit from the top down.
