How Liliana casts international talent
Nationality and language
We propose candidates based on country of origin, languages and look. Whether they speak Japanese is also listed on their profiles.
Visa status already checked
We check the visa status and work eligibility of every member at registration. For details, see about visa status.
Interpreters
For members who can’t work in Japanese, we can also arrange an interpreter.
Combined with Japanese and mixed-heritage members
For family roles and group shots, we propose combinations with Japanese and mixed-heritage members.
About talent fees
Fees depend on booking hours, the role and how photos or footage are used.
Booking hours
Besides shooting time, it depends on whether there are fittings or rehearsals.
Media and usage period
Overseas websites only, or also domestic commercials. The fee depends on the media and period.
Role
It differs between photo shoots only and foreign roles with lines or acting.
Category exclusivity
If the talent must not appear in competitors’ ads during the contract, a surcharge applies depending on the scope and period.
Language and lines
Whether there are lines in a foreign language or Japanese, how many, and whether an interpreter is needed also affect the fee.
Location
For regional shoots, travel and accommodation are included in the quote, and interpreter fees are added if an interpreter is needed.
From request to shoot day
Contact us
Tell us the shoot content, date, location, and your preferences for nationality, age, languages and so on.
Candidate proposals
We send profiles of members who match your nationality and language requirements.
Confirmation and briefing
Once performers are confirmed, share the schedule, costumes and call time. If an interpreter is attending, we give them the same materials.
