International Models Journal (IMJ-Online) is a site for talent and modeling, http://www.imj-online.com, 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 heading for that superstardom.
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 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, highlighting their personality including a list of facts like birth, education, work, awards, achievements, dreams, desires, goals and aspirations.
IMJ-Online admission is a rather exclusive arrangement; only about 30 percent of models requesting admission are accepted in the International Models Journal; virtually 700 out of 1000 models are rejected due to extremely poor photo quality or lack of effort.
IMJ-Online is the first talent promotion website allowing models and actors to publish self written success stories, feature articles, advice columns and reports. Members and bookers may also submit feedback on each other allowing their colleagues to know what they thought.
Email enquires concerning photo quality are a high priority to IMJ-Online. The Web site takes special initiative, advising members on ways to improve photos and finding professional photographers and studios in their area.
"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 Christina George, editor at IMJ-Online.
