www.darkarts.org.uk - The UK's largest directory of alternative talent and arts
We actively seek work for our members focusing on alternative people in the UK.
Not strictly an agency in the traditional sense but a non-profit organisation.
We act as a middle-man service; putting our members in touch with potential clients, job offers, and keeping them informed about opportunities of interest.
Dark Arts does NOT charge members any ongoing subscription fees for listing on the site. We do NOT charge our clients finders fees. Nor do we charge you commission on any bookings - we believe our members should receive payment for their work swiftly and in FULL.Specialising in: Photoshoots, dancers and performers for clubs & events, CD artwork and promotional material for bands, extras for film, TV & music videos, plus much more!
Dark Arts is run and maintained by Asha Tank - alternative model, performer, photographer, and stylist (with over 5 years experience in the industry)
From Asha's feature in Devolution Magazine , May 2006:
"I launched Dark Arts after becoming increasingly tired of listing on various agency sites and not really being offered much in the way of real work. I don’t believe in paying constant subscription fees and rarely getting any paid work as a result.
I also wanted to create a site where it would be possible to control multiple listings using just one login name and password, a very useful feature for people with more than one talent!
I decided it was time to set up a company where everyone in the industry could come together in one place – specifically aimed at the UK alternative market.
Having an active forum community on the site and knowing all my members makes a huge difference too. I can put a face to all the members of Dark Arts which means they get a much more personal service."
