I'm 16 and i got a slip in the mail about john cassablancas modeling audition so i was like omg so excited so my mom took me to my first audition last night and it seemed really nice and convincing. buuut after reading this i really don't know anymore it kinda seems like they just want to suck the money right out of our pockets , they gave us all a call bak time and they said if they called this morning then they didn't want me but if they don't call then we come at 7 for a 2nd audition. if they don't call then im goin to prolly not come anyway i want to live my dream and i know it takes alot of time and money but if i have no garante that i'm goin anywhere in a career then why waist time & $ .

emails welcome- m.j._50@hotmail.com

DONT DO IT!! okay my friend did it and her mom payed like 3grand for her daughter and son.now they go around telling everyone at school they are models but yet all they do is walk down a hall and put on maekup! okay my teacher was an actor and was telling us that no agent is legit if they ask for money because real modeling companies are supposed to be paying you and i looked it up and it was true.Look it up online , no famous celebrity ever got discovered by JC.Jc has to lie to every kid saying they only have12 invitations left.Then they say to EVERYONE that youre pretty and all the nice stuff.Then they will suck the money out of you,its a big scam,TRUST ME!!my friend doesnt even know its a scam,i told her but she doesnt believe me.

Okay, we took our 16 year old daughter to a open call for John Casablanca's in 2007. She was recruited by the agent, we listened to the info and made the decision to enroll her. When you consider the cost of one semester at college, the training was much less. Claire has "the look" for runway, commercial print. She completed the modeling classes, did some local work, and developed her book modeling for local photographers. We attended the Mike Beatty Expo twice (still less cost than a semester of college). She finished High School during this time, and was signed to an agency in Tokyo. She will spend the next three months doing commercial print modeling, all as a result of her training and connections through John Casablanca. If you have the dream, desire and money to pursue this field, JC can be an avenue to achieve it. NOT A SCAM.

Thank you John Casablancas-Chicago for giving my daughter Victoria a great jump start in her acting and modeling career! Through the monthly auditions and talent marketing available at JC Victoria has been able to meet with many agents, obtain many callbacks and secure representation from top Agencies in LA and at regional level. She has booked several jobs at local level and she is getting ready to jump into to the LA arena guided by the awesome agent that represents her and that she met through JC. We are convinced that the training and exposure that Victoria has received at John Casablancas Chicago has been key in her success. Thanks Carmela! Thanks JC!

I started the school but after 21 meets of going with NO WORK. I couldn't find the gas money to keep going.. Only meet twice a month so the drive was worth it at first W/ all this work they promise. But after asking for 75% Refund. of my money. they just said no.. and after asking they wouldn't pick up the phone or meet with me about work.. 

 

I went for acting but not 10mins of being there they all reqested me to model so they could keep me working between acting.. BIG JOKE..  

 

after 11 months of trying.. they couln't even get me NOT ONE ADITION...  

 

OOO NO REFUND ETHIER :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :(

This works for some people not all and they cant guarantte you work no matter how much you pay. Look at it this way if your so talented go to the big agencies skip the schools , if they really want you to model you wont need to spend thousands to do it. My friends daughter was just walking down the street when a Norstroms rep chose her

i am in the school and im Britt Spada , im doing very good, its no scam , they look for talent, if you dont have talent, you shouldnt do it. If you do than its worth the money to be on t.v like me.

If you have talent, you can get a job. It's a lot of work and time. I did the classes. I did a hair show for Paul Mitchel at Mohegan Sun when I was 15!! It was too far for me to travel to the agency office so i had to stop but if you keep going with it and keep you photos fresh and keep looking for work.. you'll make it.
