ALBERT BRAMANTE

With deep roots in the film festival circuit and casting, Albert’s transition to talent management in 2004 and subsequent evolution to agency ownership in 2008 has been driven by a passion for the craft and a commitment to excellence. The establishment of Bramante Artists in 2024 reflects a strategic refocusing, uniting Albert's legacy with a vision for the future.

Founder/Lead Theatrical Agent

Aria Mauel is a graduate of  NYU Tisch School of the Arts, where she focused on both directing and the business of entertainment. As a former actor herself, she found that her favorite aspect of both of those roles was helping artists get the support they need to thrive. Her background in both creative and administrative roles has given her a well-rounded perspective on the needs of artists and the fast-paced nature of the industry.

Starting as an intern at Bramante Artist before being promoted to Junior Talent Agent position, Aria has gained hands-on experience in talent submissions, client onboarding, contract management, and supporting actors across commercial, theatrical, and film/TV projects. She values building strong relationships and creating organized, efficient processes that allow artists to focus on their craft. She believes that clear communication, thoughtful advocacy, and genuine collaboration are at the heart of successful representation and is committed to helping clients navigate every stage of their careers.

She is excited to continue growing alongside the talented team at Bramante Artists while supporting clients with dedication and a genuine passion for supporting performers.

Amanda Whyte first started working closely with actors while she attended NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts where she found herself consistently casting and assistant directing. Once under Bonafide and Emerging Artists, (an agency once also under the leadership of the brilliant Albert Bramante), she found a passion for helping hyphenated-artists such as herself understand the business of the industry.

As a Black woman in the field, it is her intrinsic ambition to shorten the gap seen in diversity and representation that lacks across the industry by helping underrepresented voices be heard, and more importantly, thrive in an ever-changing market. Whether those artists are in front of or behind the camera, in pre-production or production—she is adamant about the importance of self-advocacy and the need for diversity within the stories we choose to tell. For Amanda, there is a huge emphasis on inspiring the next generation of actors to be loud, educated, and driven.

She is thrilled to now be at Bramante Artists doing exactly what she set out to do as their executive assistant.
