Pro-Model and Talent Management 2009 professional models talent in feature films TV

Pro-Model & Talent Management has so many professional models and talent appearing in feature films, television shows, commercial and fashion magazines, catalogues, on the runways, etc. We have listed just a few of the Pro-Model & Talent Mgmt. models and talent who are working successfully in many markets.

MARCH 2009

One page just wasn’t enough for the handsome Adam Hendrickson – this cutie, who is coincidentally a Dick’s Sporting Goods favorite can be seen on a 2 page spread for the catalogue zipped up in some fashionably popular (not to mention warm) North Face polar fleece jackets while toting some presents. We can’t wait to see what other Dick’s projects come up!

Quick! Quick!!!! Run to your local movie theater BEFORE the feature begins… WHY? Because you want to see a fellow Pro-Model and Talent actress on-screen. Our very talented local actress Christina Fallot was selected for a principal role in an upcoming short-film for the widely-known company Nesquick. This mini-film will be seen in movie theatres and will be played before the movie starts rollin’… The best part??? It may go nationwide! How will you know Christina? She plays a gal gabbing on her cell phone, in the theatre, while the movie plays … we all know what that can be like! Way to stay on top of those acting skills, Christina!

Just when you thought there were enough of our gorgeous models donning the covers of the Barbour Publishing Inspirational Christian Romance Novels we have another one ! The very pretty Maddie Gaither has been added to the list of pretty faces and she was thrilled to have been able to participate in a recent photoshoot with the company. Now, Maddie too stars on the cover of an upcoming book. How many people can boast being the image of a genuine romance heroine? WOW!

Wait, did you hear that?? Yes, it’s music to our ears as well, Alex Russo, Avon Lake, Ohio has just snagged a lead in the musical production “The Sound of Music” on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles. We’re ecstatic that the multi-talented gal will be able to show off her well trained acting, singing, and dancing skills for the captivated audiences who are no doubt huge fans of the classic story. With all the success Alex has achieved thus far (being in LA less than 1 year) we’re hoping she snags terrific movie deals too just like our very own Haley Bennett. Stay tuned!

We’re not keeping any secrets! Troy Field was recently requested back for a project with Victoria’s Secret, headquartered in Columbus, Ohio. Troy did a wonderful job the first time she was on set at the end of the summer as she starred in one of the company’s informative training videos. Now, she’s back for more and is looking forward to helping future and current employees of the popular stores to know just what’s expected of them! It was a no-brainer for the client to request Troy back and we’re so proud!!!

Keep your fingers, toes, and whatever else crossed for our bridal models who are auditioning to be in some fun and fast-paced shows for the season. Our savvy catwalk amblers have been practicing all their moves and are on pins and needles to find out if they made the cut for the following fabulous shows: The Boardman Bridal Show, the B & O Station Show, and a new show which will be held at the Kalahari Resort in Sandusky for the first time in 2009! Good luck to everyone auditioning!

Next time you’re clicking away on your keyboard and surfing the net log onto www.lodistation.com for Lodi Station Outlets where you’re sure to see a gaggle of Pro-Modelers! Haedin Delarec, Jane Morse, Madison Thomas, and Jacob Hunt became a happy on-camera family and spent the day “playing” at the outlet stores for this e-commercial. Everyone received generous paychecks and had all kinds of fun. Not sure where to go once you get to the site?? Go to the website, click on “Station Info”, then “Sights & Sounds”… Ta-DA the Pro-Modelers POP right up looking fab as usual!

Doobie, doobie doo! Our friendly promotional model slid right into her Scooby gear for a special appearance at the Kettering Recreation Complex Ice Rink. You can be sure that all the skaters were smitten when they got a chance for a meet and greet with the friendly investigative pup – more than likely, they even got a snapshot memory of the experience too. BOW WOW!

Yet another one of our sportstastic models nabbed a gig with the hugely popular retailer Dick’s Sporting Goods. This month we’re excited that Zach Garner got to spend a morning working on set with the photographers of this sweet store sporting some cool new hiking and outdoor gear for spring! Good old Zach reeled in around $500 for his on-camera know how and athletic-y good looks and even more important, the client was very pleased with his performance, touting Zach’s attitude and personality and commending his ability to take direction well. With all those accolades you can bet Zach’s future with Dick’s will be fruitful!

Hear ye! Hear Ye!!!!!!!! The beautiful Marissa Irwin has NEWS! This model of the moment who’s pranced down countless runways and graced the pages of innumerable mags is thrilled to announce her new affiliation with the prestigious Wilhelmina Agency with offices all over the world! Marissa will continue to work with Elite Chicago but will be represented by Wilhelmina in all other markets, and boy do they have a fun-filled schedule lined up for her! Marissa is already planning a trip to Japan for 1-2 months in the spring, and also just shot for Bon Ton! You can bet there’s more to come! Who wouldn’t want to travel to these exotic locales and earn a pretty penny too?! In the meantime check out these retro-style pics of Marissa looking “Peachy” in Atlanta Peach magazine.

Mr. Anthony’s Bridal Show in Boardman is one of the most well-known in the Youngstown-Boardman area. Our models sailed down the runway in high end fashions from Matinas, PenEVentures and Rondinelli Tuxedo. If you made it to the show you would have seen Anna Dzurocvin, Kristin Folland, Alexis Hura, Danielle Davis, Debra Erb, Patricia Natali, Gary Pezzuolo, Leah Prentice and Amber Waggoner shakin’ their thing on the catwalk and making every gown and tux look irresistible. Our models sure know how to stomp it out on the catwalk!

No need to call for help, Gary Tisor, Bev Baum, Annette Ciletti, Randy Meyers, Harjinder Singh, Michelle Herdlick, and Taylor Banks, all superstars at Pro-Model and Talent, were called upon by our clients at GoJo to spend the day at The Sumner Home on Ridgewood (a nursing home facility). Our well-tuned talent were happy to be on set portraying various characters like: Administrators, patients, nurses and nurses aides, and friends/family members for this project. They all looked great and can’t wait to do more work with this Akron-based company

Ruff! Ruff! It wasn’t a rough day for Patricia Natali, Madyson Gerzeny, and Margarite Davidian when they were on set for the Improvements catalogue recently! This group of three were all thrilled to the gills to be requested back by this popular name catalogue! Patricia and Madisyn played scrub-a-dub-dub with a cuddly canine for their shot and then got to hang out poolside. Margarite on the other hand will be shown tending to her spring flowers. Look for these naturally talented gals next time you leaf through your catalogue!

Don’t be blinded by the terrific job Lorinda Irby did for a recent television commercial spot. This talented and camera-lovin’ lady stole the scene and made the client swoon in her recent booking for the Corrective Eye Centers in Cleveland. Keep looking for Lorinda on the small screen

QUACK! QUACK! AFLAC! Can you believe that THREE, yes count ‘em, THREE of our fabulous actors are featured in some of the famous Aflac advertisements?!? Out of loads and loads of super talented and experienced actors/models, Cholpan Smith, Dan Turner, and Claude Jordan were selected to “hang with the duck” for this exciting project. This gaggle of talent is super ecstatic over doing this gig since they’ll be shown doing various activities like: Weight lifting, water skiing, rock climbing, or just cruising on a bike with the infamous Duck! Three cheers for our fabulous group!!!

We just got the scoop that this laddie just wrapped up shooting a commercial for luxury car brand Lexus - WHOOPIE!!! And before you get too excited we’re not finished…Brian also just completed shooting a Shell oil commercial. Both national – naturally! What’s so great about nationally aired commercials? Why the residuals, of course, that are constantly raking in the dough. Congrats to Brian we’re hungry for more!!

Gary Tisor can’t hold back his excitement for getting booked again! Gary’s enthusiasm and great technique on camera steal the show every time he’s on set prompting many-a-client to request him back! This time good old Gary will be starring in an industrial video for a local company called Invacare – which is the world’s leading manufacturer of disability equipment! Way to go – Can’t wait to see what else comes Gary’s way throughout this year. There just HAS to be more to come!

Just in case you wanted to start investigating the exciting projects our very own Drew Tyler Bell has been up to lately – STOP! We are so thrilled to announce that this multi-talented lad just filmed an episode of CSI that will air early this year. Drew was part of the musical production of One Red Flower, a very powerful story about the letters actually written to home by the soldiers in the Vietnam War, AND he showed off his fantastic dance skills at a benefit tap dance performance with the talented and well-known actress Catherine Zeta-Jones!

Get out of the way because our pint-sized full-of-expression kiddie model Jace Peackock is happy to announce that he has been selected as the FEATURE model for the Cozy Coupe for Little Tikes! We’re sure that he’ll have a blast doing the project while zipping around the set enjoying the mobile toy and we’re certain that he’ll get a real charge out of seeing himself on the packaging. How exciting!

It’s hard to believe that Katie Watkins hasn’t even been in Los Angeles for a year with all the exciting projects that she’s been involved with! You may remember from previous newsletters that Katie has been more than just a little busy in Hollywood with her lead role as Amber in the feature film “Hollenbeck” and taking on a small role in a SAG film called “Seattle”! This month has been no different for this budding starlet who is thrilled to have landed a lead in a film scheduled to go to the Sundance Film Festival as well as a supporting role in another film yet to be named.

Look out here come the mother of the brides! Patricia Natali and Debra Erb, two of our very popular models are modeling regularly for the Cleveland Boutique PenEVentures.
