SCAM!!!!! They charge monthly fees! First the crooks entice you with a so called audition and when calling back, you're told about paying monthly fees! Real agencies NEVER charge fees!

Always go directly to the website of the network or movie productions that is holding the audition. Never pay to receive audition information.

Any fool giving money to these rip off artists deserves to get scammed! No actor in Hollywood or model ever mentioned being discovered through Explore Talent or a modeling convention! Maybe it happens once every other blue moon (possibly how they keep the scam going) but 99.9 % of the time NOBODY gets discovered through them! NOBODY!

The only reason these conventions get a cattle call of contestants is because there is a huge discount for modeling school students. Or the price is included in the modeling course price.

Why would agents look on Explore Talent website for models or actors when they deal with tons of them day after day? This would be like a record label rep looking online for tons of singers when they deal with tons of them in person. Big waste!
