Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ

You've got the gig, what's next?

You already know a bit about the project, but what happens next?

It’s time for some preliminary conversations with:

  • the Production team about where and when the work will take place, what's expected, etc. and
  • for complex/high value engagements, the Business Affairs team about your contract, getting paid, etc.

What we'll need from you

We'll need some information from you so we can run some checks before we can issue a contract and before production gets underway. Check this list and get ready to send any required information to your Production contact.

Right to Work checks

It is against the law to engage a person who does not have the right to work in the UK. So, we will usually need to check your Right to Work.

Your Production contact will be in touch to arrange a check of your original ID documents, such as a current passport, European Economic Area (EEA) identity card, permanent residency card, etc.

Visas / Certificate of Sponsorship

If you’re from outside the European Economic Area (EEA) and you are coming to work in the UK, you will need the correct visa before you enter the UK and start the engagement. More information is available on .

DBS / PVG Scotland check

If you come in contact with children during your engagement, we may require you to do a DBS / PVG check and/or to fill in a personal disclosure form which we would share with you.

Walk-ons and supporting artists are expected to have obtained a basic disclosure certificate from either Disclosure Scotland or AccessNI. This must not be more than 18 months old.

Declaration of Personal Interests

The Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ must ensure its content remains impartial. So, for certain engagements you may be asked to complete a form declaring any personal interests that could give rise to a conflict of interest.

Your details

We’ll need some more information to process the payment agreed in your contract. More info on How you’ll be paid.
