Imj-online Leads Casting Directors to New Acting Talent From Pakistan and India

Since its inception in 1999, “IMJ-Online” has become synonymous with “international modeling success”  by helping aspiring and established models alike to make their presence known on the global stage. 

 

But increasingly IMJ-Online is being used by industry professionals in the video, TV and film world to find new actors and actresses from nearly every region on the planet.  These new faces and new talents are in  high demand as directors seek to inject new excitement and an exotic edge into their productions.   Notably, there has been a flurry of recent booking activity at IMJ-Online focused on capturing the talent bursting out of India and Pakistan. 

 

Why so much interest and excitement in this region?  Christina George, Chief IMJ-Online Editor says, “As global recognition of the high-quality talent currently doing fantastic cutting-edge work in India -- but also in Pakistan --  increases, so does interest in bringing this exciting new talent to productions in other regions of the world.  In acting, the old adage that ‘success breeds success’ is oh-so-true.”

 

Christine continues, “Actors and actresses with roots and industry experience in India and Pakistan are simply hot commodities these days, not only in Hollywood and New York, but also in some of the other hot film and TV production areas such as Chicago and Texas, Brisbane and Madrid.” 

 

International Models Journal (IMJ-Online) is a global networking medium between models, actors, scouts, casting directors, agents and industry professionals alike (referred to bookers on IMJ-Online). Launched in 1999, IMJ-Online publishes vital news about industry information, casting calls and member stories, guiding hopefuls and professionals around the world to further their careers.

 

Bookers who seek a broad spectrum of new models and talent, may register at IMJ-Online for free, receiving access to a large database of unique and exotic faces, bios and portfolios. Registered bookers may publish announcements, casting calls and auditions to find the right persons through IMJ-Online.

 

Registered models and actors may create a portfolio and bio displaying past experiences using photos and text.  The portfolio entries may include runway shows, promotional events, pageants, photo shoots, magazine features/covers, stage entrances and still shots from TV or movie appearances. Bios serve as a complete insight on the model or actor, highlighting their personality including a list of facts like birth, education, work, awards, achievements, dreams, desires, goals and aspirations.

 

Francisco Vandery, who seeks talent from India for film productions in the eastern United States tells us:  “I regularly – very regularly – consult IMJ-Online because, quite frankly, I don’t have the time to sift through hundreds of poorly-done portfolios when looking for talent to audition for my productions.  I know that when an actor or actress has been accepted by IMJ-Online, I will quickly get a quality description of their experience and talents.  And it’s a site that is very easy to use.  The way the site is set up, I don’t feel that I may be missing some perfect fit for my jobs just because the person is ‘filed’ wrong or that their portfolio is of distractingly poor quality.”

 

Booker reliance on IMJ quality and professionalism is one of the keys to the modeling-acting network’s success.  Every photo submitted to IMJ-Online is checked by a photo editor.  “We only accept about 65-70% of the photos that aspiring models and actors send us.  I feel that we owe it to the models and actors who register with us to make sure that they present themselves professionally and seriously.   A bad-quality photo of a very attractive person is still a bad quality photo,” says the pragmatic photo editor Susan Birch.

 

English editors also work with IMJ-Online clients to edit biographical and portfolio entries to ensure that a professional international standard is achieved and maintained.  

 

 “Our mind set concerns quality over quantity. We run a professional site, only working with those who are serious about pursuing a career in the model and acting business,” said Miss.  George.

The race to book new talent is tight, but so is the contest to be noticed by industry professionals.  IMJ-Online is helping the supply of talent reach the demand not only for exciting new faces but also for riveting, exotic-yet-familiar on-screen talent.

What song should I sing with my friends in the Talent Show?

Me and my friends are planning to do something for this years talent show.
This whole thing started when we were learning the song Untouchable by Taylor Swift on the Guitar.

So then that became super fun and we want to do more and also challenge our self.
So than came the talent show.

We still haven't figure out what song to do and the show is in like June!!! (2011)
So it would be helpful if you guys helped us choose a song.
Any suggestions?
There's 3 of us btw

hay!

1) u should pick a song that suits you, ur friends, and most importantly the audience. most rap/hip-hop/world songs are a bit weird when sung at talent shows, so pick something classic and if you imagine yourself singing on the stage, you won't feel awkward.

2) pick a song thats good for your voice and helps you sing higher gradually. very high songs (eg. emotions by mariah carey) are definitely an over-powering song, but i guess most people don't want singers screaming on stage, which is wat most people do when hitting high notes. pick something just right for a girl's voice (eg. price tag, you belong with me, love story etc)

3) if you sing songs that have background vocals or like vocals that overlap it makes the song better if you sing well so it flows well ^^

*drops hands*
phew that was long-ish lol, anyway gd luck picking!
