Totally legit. I was skeptical at first too, but I did my homework and researched them and felt very comfortable when I made the decision to give them a try.

I was worried it might be a scam; but they are not. They have gone way above and beyond to help every child they work with to find representation. I highly recommend them.

Yes, it's a real and legit company! It really depends though on how willing you are to commit to their program. As long as you strive to improve and take their training seriously, you WILL prove successful. I got an agent callback after my first showcase with them!

Prestige Talent LA has been hosting auditions for children across Europe, announcing that they are casting for Netflix, Disney and so on.
When you get to the audition, you realize they are not agents and that Netflix, Disney and alike, are merely referred because a handful of kids that appeared in these shows had been, allegedly, their clients.
Also, they show a flashy video advertising iPop, an event in LA where the kids would meet 100+ agents and guaranteed to get a contract. It is mentioned that they would be choosing the top 15 to move forward.
End of the day, late night, I receive a message stating that my kid was selected - I got the feeling all kids were. I also received a message with a brochure on the options in terms of programs. SO my selected kid would need to pay USD6000 to attend iPop - so why only 15 if I would be paying for the iPOP, international travel, accommodation for a week, etc. There were two other alternatives for a shorter program with one of Prestige guys and an online option. All expensive.
I reached out to Bridgett - the lady leading the audition - and mentioned that according to the online reviews that I should have read beforehand - this was a scam - and, even if not, it was not professional to get these kids hopes high then to break the news that the parents have to pay a lot for them to move on and have the parents in a difficult position and the kids disappointed. SO I was not moving forward and not even meeting them.
Bridgett insisted to have a call and asked me for her report card so she could get her partner, Mark, to approve a scholarship. Strange already. Later she called me and said that the scholarship was approved and as soon as they would get to US (they were about to take a flight) she would send the paperwork.
Never heard back from them.
Sent a reminder weeks later. Read and no reply.
In the end, informed that their silence just confirms the overall opinion and reviews on the www.
Sad people!
