Hollywood Talent Associates owned by Cami Carpenter is a scam. She advertises weekly on craigslist looking for models and talent for commercials and claims to be a "talent manager" yet charges hundreds UPFRONT and never gets you any work. She is not a talent manager, this is not a management company, it is a scam. She will tell you to go all over the city to meet with different casting directors... At open calls for extras. She refers you to her own photographers and most likely pockets a commission after you pay them for your shoot. She has no connections to get you work in LA, or anything besides extra work in San Diego or free fashion shows for charity. The hundreds she charges for her management services are in exchange for her telling you to "drive to LA and register with central casing" or "go register with tina real", both companies that book background extra and charge a nominal fee for ANYONE to be in their database. Do not give Cami Carpenter any of your money! She is a fraud! Ask anyone who has "worked" with her and they will tell you the same story. She needs to be shut down.
