We had the privilege of working with Prestige Talent and we must say, they are an absolute gem in the world of dancer, model and acting talent representation. From the very first meeting, We were impressed by their professionalism, dedication, and genuine passion for their clients' success. Here's why we believe they deserve a 5-star review: Prestige Talent has a deep understanding of the entertainment industry. They know what it takes to succeed in this highly competitive field, and they're not afraid to go the extra mile to make it happen.What sets Prestige Talent apart is their personalized approach to representing talent. They take the time to get to know their clients, understand their strengths, and tailor their strategies accordingly. They believe in each artist's unique potential and work tirelessly to showcase it to the right people. Communication is key in this business, and Prestige Talent excels in this aspect. They keep their clients informed about auditions, feedback, and industry updates. We always felt supported and in the loop, which made us more confident and focused on our daughter's craft. Ultimately, what matters most is the results, and we can confidently say that Prestige Talent delivers. Thanks to their guidance and dedication, we've had the opportunity to audition for some incredible projects and have even landed a few significant callbacks. I'm grateful for their unwavering belief in our daughter's potential. In conclusion, if you're an aspiring dancer, model or actor looking for a Talent management who genuinely cares about your success, Prestige Talent is the management to have in your corner.

“Scam”

Scam company. You don't need to drink snake oil to know a snake oil salesman. Study privately, get on platforms such as LA Casting, actors access or backstage. You don't need these blood sucker type "companies". —— No, we all know exactly what your company does. If you would like additional proof., I am more than happy to file claims in your local court. I have full discovery of how you people work. Do us all a favor. Stop putting yourself out as a legitimate company. As an entertainment professional for 40 years I have seen companies like you break young peoples dreams. I also am in possession of two horrific contracts requesting over $3000. 00 that you offered to young people of which you could never deliver what you promised. As a person that is extremely financially sound, I have no problem escalating the situation to expose you for who you are. Don't tempt me. How do you spell fraud? With a capital F.

Thall,

You seem to have us confused with another company.

Your multiple spelling errors make your review even more unreal.

Reviews should be from actual clients only.

You have never been a client of our nor have you ever received our services.

Thall, you have never been in the entertainment industry. Why would we bring in Hollywood Agents if we were an agency? It is clear you have no clue as to what you are talking about.

We are a performing arts center. We discover unsigned talent, develop talent if needed, have agency showcases so talent can get signed and start working. Very simple and straight forward.

Feel free to escalate the situation as far as you can. We are calling your bluff. The only Fraud here is you Thall.

Your review is completely out of place and our countless 5 star reviews from actual customers rebuke your misinformed comments.

We work with kids, not grumpy nincompoops that feel the urge to spill their toxicity online.

We've had a wonderful experience with Prestige Talent. Bridgett, Mark, Coach Cat and the whole crew were just amazing to work with. They really take their time to answer every question and is there with us every step of the way. We enjoyed working with them so much. Our daughter learned so much in those couple of weeks working with the coaches. This is an amazing company!

My daughter did this program last summer instead of a summer camp. She enjoyed the virtual acting classes and then we performed the showcase in Las Vegas. Made a road trip out of it, had a blast. My daughter received a "call back" from an agent, however despite my submitting per the instructions repeatedly we received absolutely no response, nor could we get any support or contact from Prestige. Pretty much once the showcase was over all contact/support was dropped. So for a summer camp everything was good enough. For an opportunity, a potential job or a professional acting program, this is a waste.

Note: The agents at the showcase... One was a local talent agent (we were out of state), one was a model agent and the third was an agent looking to pick up participants for another more expensive showcase (talking thousands). So it was a very limited offering if your student only did one of the programs.

Thank you for the comment.

You are able to attend the showcases every month. You have to reach out to us and get put back on the showcase schedule.

Each showcase has different agents, just in case the agency that is there for that showcase already has your kids look on their roster, etc. Being seen by a variety of agencies is key. This is open to our clients.

Again, it is on the parent of the performer to reach out to us to attend more showcases.

We were so blessed by our experience at Prestige Talent! Coach Cat is amazing and created custom audition pieces for both of my boys based on their interests and personalities. Bridgett and Mark generously invested in our family using their industry experience and knowledge. They loved our family well through feedback, answering questions, and setting us up for a successful Showcase. The confidence and courage my boys have after this experience is a gift! Thank you for making this experience possible.

Bridgett and Mark are very professional and amazing coaches. With their help and guidance, our daughter was chosen to attend iPop! LA and she received callbacks from various agencies, one of which was a New York modeling agency. We are very excited this agency asked her to sign on with them. Looking forward to the next chapter. Thank you, Prestige Talent!

We have had a great experience with this company doing zoom classes with awesome instructors and talented kids! The directors of Prestige are very organized and responsive. The IPOP we attended with Prestige was a premier and life-changing experience to get to perform in front of so many people! My son is in the process of getting signed by an agency-so the time, effort, and money is worth it! We needed to learn things before auditioning for agencies that Prestige teaches the children I wouldn't have known to teach him. Thank you so much!

We spent 1k plus cost to travel to Vegas. My granddaughter did a showcase. We were told they would get back to everyone within a few weeks and its been over 2 months and they have not responded. I have sent 2 nice emails to Bridgett just to check on things and have yet to get a response back. I get every child is not going to book jobs and that's fine, but a simple email back is really not that hard to do when we paid over 1k to your office. Its just basic customer service.

Bridgett is amazing! She is so friendly and helpful. My husband and I were skeptical at first. However, she has bent over backwards to try and help us with any issue that we run into. She shows that she cares and that is so comforting. We are still in the beginning stages, nevertheless she has been such a help. She answers all of our questions and offers to help when we need it. We are very impressed so far. We are excited to see where this opportunity takes us.

The process have been amazing from start to finish. Mark and Bridgett cares a lot about the industry and it shows through their coaching. They were able to answer every question for us, the day of the showcase was amazing, especially during these times. The studio was safe, everyone wore a mask, sanitizer throughout. We truly felt comfortable. Our daughter has received two call backs from the agencies that were there at showcase. I was hesitant at first but I'm glad I followed through.

Lol a couple months ago I fell for it, firstly they make you pay for classes, they aren't SAG-AFTRA franchised, they are a fake agency, con artists, and they crush everyone's dreams, do no fall for it. Take it from me, I fell for it, my mother ended up paying 1,000 dollars for classes, then after I did my homework on this industry filled to the brim with con artists, I landed my first contract for representation with a franchised legit agency. Save yourself some time and don't be affiliated with a fake agency located in Las Vegas which is a another red flag, I also don't think the staff knows that they're frauds. Feel free to ask me any questions.

If it weren't for Mark &Bridgette I wouldn't have such a boost to my career and my dream lifestyle! Thank you guys!

When we came across an open casting call for prestige talent and my seven-year-old daughter Asked to audition, I was extremely skeptical. She did audition and got excepted into the program.
Pristige Talent offers online additions And group acting classes/coaching. This seems like a great way for people like us in a remote location to get involved in the industry. Not to mention having a group of kids to do it with, I guarantee my daughter would not of maintained interest without the camaraderie of seeing other kids doing it.
My family warned me this was a scam and as a single mother I didn't even have money to sign up. I saw value in this program regardless if she got booked or not. So we put up a go fund me account and raise enough money to sign up at the lowest level.
This level included four acting classes and online additions with Hollywood agents. Our second class was disappointing, so we wrote Bridget to let her know. I requested that Bianca have her previous coach, Coach Cat for her next class. Not only did they meet this request but they went far beyond my expectations and offered us a free make up class with Coach Cat to make up for a less than perfect experience. It was perfect and really restored my daughters confidence and gave her that extra practice so when it was time for the Hollywood agent audition She Nailed it! And got on their Call back list for another audition with the Hollywood Agency!
My advice to parents is if you're in a remote location this is an amazing opportunity in the skills your children learn will stay with them for life. For that reason alone it is not a scam.
However it's a very small chance. And no matter what format you used to get there it would still be a small chance.
But if you have one of those rare special children who been trying to crawl onto stage since they were a baby and are obsessed with being in the spotlight.
They will raise to the top and this is an opportunity worth taking!

Make sure your child is willing to put in 30 minutes a day practice

There is always an agency like this who is to take advantage of people in their dreams. These people are amongst them… Do not give them any money… Do not even think that they can help you in anyway.
It is the usual BS that they think that your child or your young person is above average and must be seen in Hollywood.
As a professional actor, producer and mentor I tell you to run not walk away from people like prestige talent.
Call your local screen actors Guild office and ask them if you should ever pay an agent.

Talent Agents and talent managers get paid a percentage of what the artist earns.

This company is a predatory scam for people who don't know and or are new to the industry.

Breaks my heart that thieves like this are still in existence.
I will do my best to shut them down.

Do not even talk to prestige talent.
They are scammers

Mark C. – Prestige Talent Rep

Lonie R. Has never been a client nor ever received any of our services and has posted a false review.

Prestige Talent is the liaison between the client and the agent. Read our website as to what we do and services we offer. Why would we be an agency that introduces you to other agencies?

Prestige Talent offers training/development and showcases for their clients.

There is a growing epidemic in the entertainment industry that people who are just starting do not think they need to invest in themselves and in the entertainment industry… NOT TRUE.

If you want to be an actor, model, dancer, singer, etc you must train and attain the required, and necessary materials. Those things cost money! No one is going to pay for your classes, training, private coaching, showcases, workshops, seminars, photos, etc, except YOU!

Agents and managers make a percentage from that client. How long do you think an agent or manager will work without the client bringing in some revenue? NOT VERY LONG! Heres why: There are simple steps for you, the talent (actor, model, singer, dancer) to take in order to bring in revenue. You all remember the phrase "It takes money, to make money"? You have to have something to give to bettering yourself as talent, to insure you book, and have staying power within the industry. Otherwise you look as though you are expecting others to do it for you, and that wont happen. Let me be clear this doesn't negate the headline "Do you work for free? NO", they do have several clients and are making money from each of them at different times through out the year, they diversify their client lists with talent at all stages of their career to insure they aren't working for free.

The entertainment industry is just like any other industry, or sport; by which I mean, one must invest in the continuing training it takes to remain competitive. There is far too much talent vying for a spot on a Commercial, TV, Film, Stage, etc that you must do all you can to separate yourself from the pack. If you do not have the money to train, renew headshots, and private coach when needed, you may not see any results. Now having said that, there are sometimes ways around it if you don't have the money, you can ask if you may work for it. Intern or help out at the acting/ dance/ singing studio in exchange for classes. Mind you this may not always work as the studio may be well staffed, and just as the headline states, the studio can NOT WORK FOR FREE. They have to pay the bills.

Now when talent is starting out do they have to take some projects to gain credits that may be little to now pay, yes! You aren't working for free, you are working for copy, credit, meals, mileage/ gas reimbursement, etc. THERE IS SOMETHING GIVEN IN EXCHANGE FOR YOUR TALENT SERVICES, i. E. NOT FREE!

In this industry it baffles me why people think they don't have to invest time and money just like anything else in life. If you want to be a doctor, do you not have to invest time and money in studying, before you can make it back? It is exactly the same in the entertainment industry. Actors are paid well because they work damn hard to get there, and work damn hard to stay there…

Moral of the story, DO NOT GO INTO THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY thinking someone else should take care of these costs, tasks, investments, commitments etc for you, IT WON'T HAPPEN…

My name is Aaliyah and I really enjoyed working with Bridgett. I got the opportunity to work with her at the iPOP showcase 2022 in Anaheim, CA. Her direction and guidance made us have a wonderful showcase! We only had 3 days to rehearse from 6pm to 9pm. With all that pressure, I don't think it would have been possible without Bridgett. She's a good director and I'm thankful to have worked under her leadership.

Working with Prestige Talent and Bridgett has been an amazing and exciting experience.

Starting from the introductions, she was informative professional and educational.

She led my daughter through a great audition and we truly can see that the sky's the limit.

If you believe your child has real talent, meet with Prestige talent.

My daughter fell into modeling for a local boutique website. She loved the experience and wanted to peruse it further. We were lucky enough to be introduced to Bridgett, she knows the industry and knows the RIGHT people in the industry. We did paid for modeling & acting classes and then attended iPOP. Expect to pay to play. As a result, my daughter had 8 call backs. We decided to sign with two agencies and then eventually we signed with a 3rd focused more on acting. Our daughter has now completed a few modeling jobs and just wrapped up her first mini series. As we are watching her bank account grow, I can say the initial investment with Bridgett/Prestige Talent was worth every penny to get her where she is now! Bridgett was compassionate and helped us ask the right questions before signing with an agency, she truly wants the best for "her kids", I say her because she truly looked out for our daughter's best interests as she would her own child!

I signed my son up with Prestige Talents amd couldnt be happier. Bridgett and Mark were very helpful and always took the time to reply to all messages and answered any question's I had. Coach Cat was amazing and worked so well with all the kids my son looked forward to his class with Coach Cat every week. My son gained self esteem and confidence during this program and when the show case came around Bridgett and Mark worked with the kids so well they all did an amazing job on stage and had so much fun doing it. My son left his show case on cloud 9 and couldnt stop telling me
And the family how much fun he had and was so proud of himself and could wait to preform infront of all his friends and teachers and our whole family. I would highly recommend to any parent looking to start the child/children in the entertainment industry they give all tools your child will need and they treat you and you child/children as if you were there own family.
