Interested in Modeling??? 2009 could be your year!

Happy New Year everyone! Thanks for visiting the Model Integrity blog.
Please forgive the outdated aspects of the main model integrity website - our event from this past Spring was great, but we need to take that old info down! We're working on a new system to keep it updated more often and focus more on information about helping you learn how to break into the modeling industry ALL the time, not just when we have an event. (Hopefully by the end of Jan the main site will all be updated - so check back with it soon).

In the meantime, if you're interested in modeling (for yourself or your child) you've come to the right place. Model Integrity is a resource for aspiring talent that was founded by Shannon Tacheny (owner of Feather Blue Studios) who herself has been part of the local modeling industry for over ten years and now has children who model as well. When she began pursuing modeling, Shannon quickly found out that just about every path (ad/booth/conference) lead to a scam or request for large sum of money. And now on the other side of things, Shannon desires to help people like you make your attempt at becoming a model in the most legitimate, affordable way.

The main, ongoing thing that Model Integrity offers is our Model Workshops. These affordable workshops are offered every few months and include straight-forward, honest information on everything you need to know to get started. You also gain tips on how to get yourself/your child the edge they need to get the attention of agents and clients in this competitive industry. Each group workshop (only $49) includes a binder of information and legit agency listings, a model bag (for your portfolio & gear) and a $50 gift certificate to use toward a model package with Feather Blue Studios if you wish, plus 5 minutes of one-on-one time at the end. If you prefer an independent session, the same info is available via a one-on-one consultation for $95.

We cannot stress how important this small investment is if you are serious about finding your way into the local modeling scene. Many of our clients come to us after spending as much as $3000 somewhere else, resulting in no actual prospects of real modeling jobs or a legit modeling agency. Our goal is to provide you with the hard-to-come by honest information of this industry, the edge of an insider's opinion, and then help you make your best shot at getting listed with a working, legit local agency.

We are NOT here to guarantee anything, and that is the true key to knowing we are legit! Anyone who guarantees you anything is likely not looking out for your best interest. True to it's name, Model Integrity is based on the foundations of honesty and integrity.

So if you're interested in modeling (or acting) in the Twin Cities please get in touch! You can reach us at modelintegrity@juno.com or 651.489.8281.
