Snap Modeling And Talent Agency - Arthur Talent Agency Withholding Checks for payment on jobs finished over 3 months ago, Agency paid but Snap modeling won't ripoff Kissimmee Florida
Snap Modeling and Talent is a Non-licensed managed company run by a non trained Manager Ginger Santangelo, who with holds checks and is now under investigation by the Attorney Generals Office for withholding checks. She runs a non licensed business out of her home in Kissimmee, Florida, forces clients to use a photographer that she gets kick backs from, to get their photos from, and teaches so called classes out of her home to train people to go to auditions when she herself has only been on a set one time, couldn't arrive on time, be dressed on time, or act as a professional.
Not only is she a Ripoff, but seems like she is running a scam operation and i am glad the Attorney General's Office is looking into the taxes she is paying and all the client's and classes she is supposedly teaching from her home to see where her license are, as well as Osceola County.

This Client wouldn't stand behind his contract with the Booking agency or myself as a Licensed talent scout/Consultant

I scouted this client when I noticed him at a restaurant-- when at the time I was a Licensed Talent Scout/Consultant in Osceloa County (Kissimmee)! I never said I was an AGENT...HAVE NEVER CLAIMED THAT... MY BUSINESS CARDS NEVER SAID THAT EITHER.. I approached him then later had a consultation with him...We had a verbal agreement and I registered him up as a client and started to market him to the agencies I was supplying new faces into the business. He supplied me with his photos from when he was many pounds heavier and I sent them to the agencies. I started getting requests for his unique look and informed him of the interest.... but also that the agents wanted new photos with his current look --- so we could book him with those photos instead of him having to drive many many hours to Miami for each interview.... this was beginning to get costly for him and time consuming too. At this time I suggested that I could try to talk with the agent's photography too see if I could make an arrangement so he could get a good brake on getting his new photos done... the photographer suggested that he bring on some of his marketable friends (gay) into the business and if they got started into the business & got pictures he would give my client a discount for his pictures and only pay for the makeup/hair & stylist and not the photographer.... I NEVER SAID ANYTHING ELSE... I JUST CONVEYED THE INFO FROM THE "AGENCIES" & PHOTOGRAPHER so I could get him bookings - PAY.. which he did... he got several bookings and I had to spend hours on the phone with him discussing his anxieties and wardrobe...he went to the jobs,,, (he was very difficult to work with per the booking agencies while on the site of the shoots..."). There was a delay in getting the booking agents to make payments to the Modeling agency! Then he gave the Modeling agency which sent him out for the jobs a problem signing off on his checks to get themselves paid.... they then sent all the checks for my clients to me so that I could get them delivered to each one and then I could get my 10% directly when I gave them the checks... he would not meet with me to settle his work agreement with me and pay me... he wanted me to just send him the checks and then for me to wait for him to send me my 10%.... Then I got him a direct booking for an insurance ad .... when I got the check for that job I processed that check.. added the totals up and deducted my fees and sent him the money due to him....that check was cashed and then later he put OUT these lies on this Rip Off complaint.....
It is very simple... I scouted him... marketed him.... gave him many hours of consultation.....got him signed with an agent in Miami, got him booked for several jobs...gave him more consultation.... AND HE GOT HIM MONEY..... !
My agreement was to market him and do my best to get him booked... WHICH I DID...ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS... If I didn't do my job there would not have been any MONIES or Check .....he got everyone very upset with his demands and disagreements and then no one wanted to book him... he got dropped from the agency and I informed him that I would not represent him if he wouldn't stand behind his contractual agreement with me...
I was NEVER under investigation by the Attorney Gereral's Office .... EVERYTHING IN THIS COMPLAINT IS FICTIONAL.... LIES.... FALSE ACCUSATI0NS...AND DEDTREMENTAL TO MY BUSINESS REPUTATION....
