Inclusive Modelling Agency Australia
Inclusive Modeling Agency Australia
Championing Disabled, Visibly Different, Non-Binary, and Trans Australian Models
Zebedee Talent is the leading inclusive modelling agency in Australia and around the globe. We are paving new paths for how disability, visible difference and gender identity are represented in fashion and wider media.
“Disability is often left out of the diversity debate; we often receive briefs looking for ‘diversity’, but with no mention of disability, alternative appearances, or trans/non-binary – and we want to change this. We want it to be the norm that REAL diverse media becomes commonplace.”
- Laura Winson & Zoe Proctor, Founders
Zebedee was established in 2017 by co-founders Laura and Zoe, who demonstrate an innate passion for diversity. Today we are the world's leading inclusive talent agency, supporting countless models with disabilities and visible differences, non-binary, and trans models and actors across the UK, Europe, USA and Australia, and Japan. Our pool of Australian models, actors, and creatives is evergrowing, bringing unique talent together to help you create breathtaking campaigns. Our current bases in Australia are located in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and Perth.
We Partner With Brands Wanting to Make a Difference
Big or small, our perfect partners are brands and casting directors who understand the importance of making their marketing campaigns and shows more inclusive and address the staggering underrepresentation in the advertising and media industry.
We are already working with some of the world’s most iconic brands – including Gucci, Burberry, Mercedes, Vogue, Estee Lauder, Disney, The BBC and HBO, and we’d love for you to join them on our collective journey towards more diverse casting.
There is still much to do, but with your help, we can continue to bring balance to the industry – one inclusive casting at a time.
Work With Australia’s Leading Inclusive Talent Agency
Our talent is different – and so are we.
Working with Zebedee Talent means having access to Australia’s most diverse talent pool and a wide range of resources to support your creative campaigns. Zebedee is all about promoting community, confidence and education - and our dedication to our models goes way beyond that of a typical talent agent.
As the leading inclusive talent agency in Australia, we regularly put on events aimed at developing both life and professional skills for our network, and we support our talent with the utmost compassion and understanding – something we also expect form our clients.
Not only are we aware of the challenges facing our talent, but we are also conscious of the fact that this may be your first time working with our models and that you might be feeling somewhat apprehensive.
The good news is that there is nothing to worry about, and while some models may require a little more care and thoughtful planning before a shoot, we’ll work with you to get it right, offering webinars and resources to help you understand every aspect of disability, visible difference and gender identity, so you feel as comfortable as our models feel in front of the camera.
Working with our diverse talent is an incredibly rewarding experience for everyone involved, and for the wider viewing public once your campaign is ultimately seen by the wider general public.
DIVERSITY BEHIND THE CAMERA
We encourage our clients to consider diversity, both in front and behind the camera. Speak to us about our talented photographers, hair and make-up artists, videographers, stylists, producers, directors and more.
CONSULTANCY
Our consultancy team can help you ensure your spaces and projects are inclusive too – offering training, guest speakers, and workplace, culture and policy reviews.
We can also offer support during the creative process, checking the stories you tell are sensitive and authentic – plus our access coordinators can help during casting and shoots, ensuring everyone’s needs are properly catered for.
