Face National Models and Talent
To Whom It May Concern:
My name is Jennifer Gill. I am the owner of Face National
Models & Talent, LLC.
I appreciate what your web site is trying to accomplish;
I do, however, know people are very quick to make false
accusations regarding this skeptical industry.
I would like to give some more information regarding
FACE. FACE is a full-service modeling agency providing
corporate America with the strongest talent available.
We have accumulated a diverse group of attractive
people to serve the varying needs of our clients. FACE
has developed partnerships with a number of national
corporations that have given our models the opportunity
to get the exposure they need, while providing them
with income.
When we conduct talent searches, it is for a reason.
Clients contact our booking department with a need
for models in a specific city —in most cases
several different cities.
The client will request the number of models needed
in the city along with all of the appropriate information
we will need to make the booking successful.
If we do not have enough models in a specific city,
we will do a talent search. During a talent search,
the potential models are interviewed. Hopefully, we
will get experienced models that know about the business.
If we offer a potential model a contract, he or she
may have a composite card to submit to the agency.
Consequently, they may be submitted for work immediately.
(A composite card is needed in this business —they
are requested by all clients that hire models —it
is the most important tool in the modeling industry.)
If the model is inexperienced and does not have a
composite card, we can offer a professional photographer
for a very reasonable and competitive price.
All of the photographers FACE uses are professional
photographers who are experienced in the modeling industry,
not only working for FACE, but with some of the biggest
agencies in the country.
The FACE Models staff works very hard for our models
and clients. Our booking department sometimes works
over 200 models in one week.
Every day our client list grows, and so does our booking
team. Every booking agent in the office takes pride
in their work and loves making our models money!
FACE moved to a large downtown office in Charlotte
to accommodate our growing booking team. Anyone is
welcome to visit our new office and see what really
happens at FACE.
It's unfortunate that people who don't know the industry
well enough can call any agency a scam if they don't
become supermodels.
We sign the majority of our models to non-exclusive
contracts so the models can get the most out of their
modeling career. When a model signs a non-exclusive
contract, the model can work with several different
agencies if they choose.
We give models an opportunity to work mostly on a
part-time basis —it's supposed to be fun! Remember,
modeling is just like the entertainment business —very
few people become famous. It's so important to be realistic.
Not only does the staff work extra hard for all of
our models, but, for the last two months after work
the staff here has been planning a charity fashion
show for Camp Happy Days. Now, children with cancer
can attend the camp from all of the hard work the staff
has put in.
The great people that make up the staff of FACE care
about this company, and work so hard to make this agency
something we all can be proud of.
Again, it's important to have realistic expectations
in this business. You get what you put in to any career.
FACE can get a model started and put some money into
their pocket, but it's also up to the model to do their
part.
Models think they sign a contract, and two months
later they should be signing autographs.
Most of the agencies listed most likely are not "scams";
the models blame the agency for not putting them on
the front cover of Vogue next to Naomi.
Some models should think twice if this industry is
suitable for them. Making false accusations does not
help this industry —that's why people automatically
feel they need to slander any agency without knowing
the facts.
Our website is facemodels.com —we continually
update our site.
If anyone should want more information regarding FACE,
please don't hesitate to contact our office.

Jennifer Gill
Owner of Face National Models & Talent, LLC.
