They called about my daughter. I told them we live in the state of Arkansas. They said That she would be okayTraveling alone. But she is a 10 year old minor. I said I'm not letting her travel alone And whoever wants her as an extra or whatever they would have to pay her and my airfare plus hotel accommodations. They said that that would happen. Also told them that they would have to wait till the next day because I'm not giving out my bank card over the phone. But I would need to go to Walmart and get a prepaid card. They said it be okay to go ahead and give my card to them because they delete that information the next business day. But I've read other people had trouble with them constantly Running their card for another year They also said I had two days to contact them or else The whole thing would be non valid. Needed to give this three-star so that this would show up
This is fake! Tricking kids ages thirteen like me or below and above?!?! Like you guys, you got the call about baywatch, transformers, fast 8 blah blah blah cool cool cool, blah blah blah, we want your money, blah blah BLAH! Its like you get everyones hopes up and expect us to believe that your casting director is close or in town!? How unbelievable because i have gone to many acting classes to prove i am worthy just to be shut down. Disappointed
After being a part of Explore Talent for some time, and submitting multiple headshots, this is the first gig that I have booked. A tv commercial for a toothpaste brand, Its not that so cool but an opened window to the Big screen. Thanks Explore for being very helpful to people who are searching for career in acting, Great Job!
I just wanted to let you know that I signed up with Explore Talent less than a week and I already have a audition scheduled on the following week. I am so excited and thrilled! I also wanted to comment on the customer service department, especially Carrisa. Carissa has been nothing but helpful, encouraging, and truthful with me... and the one thing I love she always returns your calls! I could not have been in this specific spot I believe without her guidance. So a big thank you goes out to Explore Talent and Carrisa...
Got a text for a "Dr. Pepper" commercial so I called the number attached and the guy I talked to was very nice and convincing until he brought up 100$ payment every 3 months. So I decided to look up the company while on the phone, saw all the bad reviews and hung up. After reading reviews I decided to call back (a lady answered this time) I told her to take me off their list because I read the reviews and know they're a scam. She raised her voice and got super defensive saying people write bad reviews to ruin their company. I continue to tell her I didn't want to be on the list anyways because I wasn't interested in paying and she laughed and went on a rant then hung up.
Thank God i read the reviews and got out of that.
The positive reviews on here are from ExploreTalent reps trying to recover from the truth, do not trust them.
I checked this out, they got my email, but through an email exchange with a rep, I discovered that they tell you about roles not in your area, roles you could not possibly make happen. Now they are spamming my cell.
On here their email is *******@yahoo.com, ask yourself why. Why not something at exploretalent.com? NO transparency, NO Truth, NO Real Acting Roles.
You have been warned.
My son has a part in a film and has only been a member of Explore Talent for 10 days. He was using other sites for acting before but now he only uses Explore Talent. He would recommend this to anyone.
I decided to try it and it instantly asked for money. I have tried cancelling the account and they call me! Saying they want to talk about me cancelling my account. You don't need to talk to me about cancelling my god damn account! Just cancel it! And they took money that I didn't even authorize! Complete scam! Don't sign up!
I got several jobs from your website, although they are not high paying, they have been fun and exciting for me and kept me doing what I love – acting.
Two of my roles, indie feature films "Leaving Hollywood" and "6 Nonsmokers" were screened at the Senator Theater in Baltimore this summer.
So ive had my profile for about 2 weeks now & i got a call today & it was a lady. It sounded like she was in a restaurant or something like it was nosiy which i found weird. & Then she tells me how My dress is pretty on my pictures so i figured she was looking at them & then she asked where i bought it like it just sounded non professional & then she asked if she could. Speak to my Parents & i told her they were busy at the moment but that i would call back later. & She just mentioned something about money i really couldnt understand nothing because she was in a loud place & then i heard her mention clothing line so i hanged up & im here like im going to see reviews with this site & well turns out there experience is similars to mine so ya i think Its a scam & im going to delete my pictures etc.
After 4 days of signing up through Explore Talent, I got my first job in the Pureology Hair Show in Providence. I was paid $250. Apart from that, I was given $40 worth of hair care products for the day's work. Thanks a lot for your assistance. Now, I'm looking forward to finding more modeling jobs from the site.
I was only with Explore Talent 3 weeks and I got my first audition for a part in the stage play Cincinnati 28. It got me and the rest of the cast members a lot of exposure and it opened doors for me. Many thanks Explore Talent!
For a very long time, I have been dreaming of becoming a model watching runway videos and the like always encourage me to become like those models. So I thought of joining Explore Talent for a year. And boom! I had the best year in my modeling career. All I can say is that, ET bring the best out in me!
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY FOR ANY ACTING OR MODELING GIGS... THESE PEOPLE ARE TOO DEMANDING AND DONT LISTEN 2 ANYTHING YOU HAVE TO SAY AND DONT MAKE SENSE OF WHAT THEY'RE SAYING AS WELL. THEN THEY TELL YOU THAT YOU CAN ONLY APPLY TO GIGS UNDER YOUR MATCHED JOBS WTF IF I PAY 180 DOLLARS I BETTER BE ABLE TO APPLY TO WHAT I WANT WHEN I WANT AND HAVENT HEARD ANYTHING BACK FROM ANY GIG I APPLIED 2 PLEASE PEOPLE DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY ON ANYTHING WITH THEM AND PLUS THEY ALL ARE FOREIGN SO YOU KNOW THATS A DAM SCAM THEY DONE PISSED ME OFF TO THE HIGHEST MAX I DONT WANT ANYTHING TO DO WITH THEM I HAD THEM TO REFUND ME MY MONEY BACK ASAP AND IF I DONT GET ILL BE FLYING TO THEIR LOCATION WITH THE SH**
Thank you for my first job! I was so excited to get my first job through the site. I did my print job for Cellphone Co. In Austin, the photography is a famous Jack. I made $150.00.
Thank you Explore Talent!
I cannot wait to book new projects from you guys.
I think its a scam too! I got a call to saying to the same thing about some movie, "babywatch" and that Jamie Fox was looking for me and I listened and believed it. And they told me that I had to pay my money before they could book any appointments and I payed and I haven't hear from them since then. I was suppose to be working with this lady named Katrina for a year and now my times almost up and I payed all this money and I haven't had one appointment yet! I want my money back and I'm going to get it that was $300 wasted my formal is coming up and now my dad's mad at me and won't buy me and shoes for the formal because they wasted his money, screw this!
If i could give 0 stars, I would. Please do not fall for this. I made a profile on the website without paying VIP a week or 2 ago and ever since have been getting calls to star in the Wolverine. I've been ignoring the calls because of the reviews i've read. Just moments ago, I got a call while in the car with my brother in law. Since I am underage, they asked to speak with him. I whispered to him that it was a scam and so he politely said I wasn't interested and that it was a mistake. The lady who called us began acting really rude, saying "how the hell is she not interested if she filled out the profile?". My brother said that she didn't have to be rude considering he was being polite. The woman then proceeded to say "I can be rude if I want, don't tell me what I can and can't do." After this, he hung up. This was obviously a scam and even if it wasn't, that wasn't at all a way to speak to a customer.
Received audition for commerical... got job! Through Explore Talent I received an audition for a commercial for the product "Go Smile" Teeth Whitening. I got the job and shot the commercial on two different occasions in Riverside, CA. I had so much fun and met great people.
They called me and and at first i was delighted and liked how eager they were to talk to me. I soon heard of their prices and checked it over with the main website but it turns out, the prices that they gave me on the phone was much higher than the website's price. On the web page it says $30 for 3 months but from the phone the person that i talked with told me $100. His name is Charlie With.
Wow! So many castings within 3 days! I'm so thankful and happy I have only been with Explore Talent about 3 days and I have already got so many casting directors contacting me. Thank you so much Explore Talent!
