Frequently Asked Questions:

I’ve heard that if an Agency wants you, they will not charge anything up front and they should even pay you.

AMTC is not an Agency. We are like the “Olympics” of talent and modeling – with training provided. AMTC brings together selected participants with many of the top Agents, Managers & Casting Directors in the world. You are right about one thing; a good Agent does not charge a fee to join.

However, to begin in acting or modeling does take money: for pictures, comp cards, headshots, travel, living expenses, and more. So much misinformation has been given out by people who have no idea how the industry really works. Educate yourself. AMTC is a great way to learn while gaining experience and exposure. In addition, do as much reading as possible. Please visit our Reading Room.
