Neon
offered myself a free test shoot where they would pay for Secrets Limited to do
the pictures in order for them to decide whether I would 'fit' the bill and if
I did they would accept me to their books and then only take a % of what I
earned from jobs they found me...
First and foremost, any comments such as 'I
don't see what is bad, nothing is free bla bla bla' is ***. It’s AGAINST THE LAW
for an agency to charge you an upfront fee for anything and it IS AGAINST THE
LAW for a company to charge a fee for anything if looking for photographic or
fashion work. The owners of
Neon Models know this and there last company Capri Models/Pacha Studios got closed down for scamming
people.
Neon Models get around this law, by not charging an
upfront fee from themselves, but by saying they have accepted you on to their
books and that they need a portfolio so you have to buy the photos from there
photography studios. Which I must say can go up to thousands of pounds? IF THEY
HAVE RANG YOU THEY ARE TRYIING TO SCAM YOU. THEY WILL TAKE YOU TO A SHIITY
LITTLE STUDIO and take really low quality images. Even there own staff goes on
blogs and wrtite how bad the company is neon models review
Neon Models do not let you do not meet any of the
“AGENCY STAFF” on the “test shoot” you work with a photography who I think was
a student as he didn’t even know how to use his camera properly, then you get
taken to skanky room in there basement and get told I have been accepted and
because I had they would need a portfolio. The best part is about to come they
wanted over £2000 and I had to but the portfolio if I wanted to be ‘on there
books”
I asked why
I wasn’t told this before wasting my time traveling all the way to London they
said they had no obligation to do so! When I said I could not offered it I was
humiliated told why I didn’t “get a job”.
The team at
Neon
