Model & Talent Management 

A free service for Julie Nation Academy graduates.

Julie Nation Model & Talent Management is a referral service for Julie Nation Academy graduates who have been qualified for job placement assistance in their programs. Not a licensed agency, JN Management refers graduates to opportunities such as castings for commercials, extra work, fashion shows, print jobs, hair shows, conventions, and other work that employers request. All Julie Nation graduates of all age levels are offered this annual service. These opportunities are non-union, and job and payment information is arranged directly between the client and the model/talent, who are independent contractors and are freelance models and talent. 

Julie Nation Academy is the premier training center in Northern California. We are not a licensed agency, and do not charge commissions to either employers or models and talent. For union pay-scale work, such as print modeling or TV commercials with major companies like Macy’s, Target, Old Navy, Verizon, etc., as well as TV show and film roles, representation by a licensed agent is needed. For our students and graduates and the public at large, we recommend performing for international agents at IMTA (International Model and Talent Association). We recommend this prestigious Convention, of which Julie Nation Academy has been a proud member since 1993. A graduate has also been trained to submit on-line applications to agents.

ARE YOU READY TO WORK? 

Our goal at Julie Nation Academy is to help prepare our students and graduates for successful careers in the entertainment industry, and JN Management provides real world experience in auditioning and working as a model, actor, and performer. Our instructors qualify students for JN Model & Talent Management during the course of their program(s).

Although a free service to graduates, a management agreement is required to be represented to potential employers.

Please note:

  • One headshot, one full length photo, is required, which is used to publicize and represent you to community events, employers, casting directors and sponsors.

  • Professional photography shoots (agency-standard) are required to accomplish the head shot and full-length photos. Instagram, selfie photos and other non-professional images not acceptable for this service.

  • Model's cards and actor's composites are optional but recommended.

  • Discount to graduate “refresher” workshops quarterly and career consultations as offered in email newsletters. Workshops are taught by industry leaders and Julie Nation instructors for continued advanced education.

**Please note: Julie Nation Academy is not a licensed agency, does not take commissions from either employers nor models and actors. We cannot, do not promise paid employment. We do offer support towards those goals for those of our graduates who wish to build their careers.
