Complaint Review: Trans Continental Talent

Okay, so I went to the open call 3/17/03, they choose me for a 2nd interview, to be conducted over the phone, the guy I talked to who was suppose to be a modeling scout (but didn't look like one to me.) First of all his teeth were jacked up! They were all fighting for space! and he wanted to see mine? Which are in perfect condition, I will add. He had a girls name tattooed on his neck as well? He didn't look polished or like a former model at all.

Anyways he asked if I would be prepared to pay $800 when they (the talent executives) called me over the phone for the 2nd interview. I asked if they would want the money by credit card or money order. I don't know many people who have $800 dollars ready to give away just to scan photos on a web site. Anyways he said "I don't know how they will ask for payment exactly".

So I looked up tct on the web and found ripoff.com thank Jesus to that. I didn't have the $800 anyways to give but thank goodness for ripoff.com in case I did want to do something stupid like that. Yes, maybe you can get discovered by paying them, but I don't think that anyone who really knows that they should be in the industry, needs them to succeed.

My advice as a 5 10, 130lb, 34b cup, beautiful trinidad native female is to take some clear pictures of yourself and take a trip to NY for fun and go to open calls at the agencies. They will let you know right then and there if you should keep trying to be in the business. Keep trying, and don't think that anything worth aquiring is easy as one $800 payment.
