I recently recieved a letter from John Casablancas Modeling and Career Center saying that "A leading Los Angeles talent manager will be in Greensboro". Please see if u can find anything about this or feed back from preople with previous experiences that would be GREAT!
P.S. I will most definitely award a best answer!

John Casabalncas, is like Barbizon and John Robert Powers. They only want your money.
They are NOT a modleing Agency. They "allegedly" train you modelinging techniques, for a fee! (real modeling agencies don't charge)
Many, many years ago, John Casablancas had the
Number 1 Modeling Agency in New York City. I assume he is now deceased and his family probably "sold his name and the business."
Legitimate Modeling Agencies NEVER charge for modeling lessons, because they get the money back once the model makes money from the modeling assingments she books for the agency.

NO. i went there when i was in highschool. its a total scam. i put in ove 5000 dollars total within the first year and got nothing out of it but mediocore pictures and some runway classes. trust me, i am really not trying to be mean or be negative in any way towards you, JC is not the way to go. you should never have to PAY anyone or any "talent" agency to promote you. i signed with them for 3 years, spends thousands of dollars renewing pictures and my contract, 700 on my book alone. and in all those years, i got one job, a promotional one FOR THEM trying to get girls to sign up. i did everything they asked, call ins, agency meetings etc etc. nothing. if you really want to model try ModelMayhem.com. they are pretty good, i have a webpage there and i have gotten way more jobs then JC ever considered giving me.

it truly is a rip-off, by fact which you're truly implying in the close to destiny you're able to desire to be a type with stated employer.in spite of the undeniable fact that, with any modeling enterprise it rather is honestly interested in you, there are honestly no costs. So yay for the journey for ya, in spite of the undeniable fact that it is not genuine. My mom modeled for Elite fashions. So i comprehend all the run ins.
