I got an email from this company because my son was staring in local plays I wanted to branch him out into commercials so I went to the website filled out half the profile, when they asked for pictures I said no thanks (he's a small child sorry but that's like HEY PEDIPHILES LOOK AT MY KID) so I stopped right there and closed it down, well low and behold I get a call saying "they want my son for a movie" first question out of my mouth was... Um you have no idea what he looks like, second how can he be wanted for a movie when he's never auditioned? So I listened giggling waiting for the give us 1000 dollars and we'll take a photo... But she never said it so I said I'll call you back, I went here and to BBB and bingo I was right, this company is a scam so I called her back to hear the "you only have to pay" line I said sure sure let me go to the BBB can I have your tax ID number or your BBB number. She promplty hung up...
For all you aspiring actors and models... No agency should EVER ask for money to take a picture or give you an audition, you are responsible for your own photo's most agencies take a 5-10% commission AFTER you land a role, so if someone says you look great give me money for pictures or an audition call their bluff!
