They had an open call last week, but it was for older children.<BR/><BR/>At the very least I should get some good pictures out of it that I don't pay $595 for!Michelle Pessoahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06730504253807606256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10681857.post-1150048590068053182006-06-11T13:56:00.000-04:002006-06-11T13:56:00.000-04:00creepy :(creepy :(Jardena https://www.blogger.com/profile/06994636053291287336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10681857.post-1150045885388414372006-06-11T13:11:00.000-04:002006-06-11T13:11:00.000-04:00It is so good that you checked on them.

My daughter almost fell for a scheme about kids being used for print ads, and when she checked it out, she found that she would have had to pay a LOT of $$ to set up a portfolio for them, which still did not guarantee that they would be hired. <BR/><BR/>Some parents get caught up in something like that because it is ego-boosting for them. I am glad you didn't fall for it!<BR/><BR/>Michele sent me.kenjuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07342414519714356343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10681857.post-1150035681461274822006-06-11T10:21:00.000-04:002006-06-11T10:21:00.000-04:00Good call on the so-called modelling agency.

Any place that asks for huge dollar amounts up-front is always a scam.<BR/><BR/>Of course, beyond the crooked agencies, I have issues with parents whoring their kids out in the hope of a big payoff. If the child wants to pursue acting, he/she can do it in so many more constructive ways - youth theatre troupes, school plays, etc.<BR/><BR/>This way seems to slimey. Thanks for the very timely warning.carmilevyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00360045114379957605noreply@blogger.com
