I have read all the reviews actually reached out to a former casting director for Preview, he stated it is just a get rich quick scheme for the owner of Preview Models. They travel all across the country misleading people They cast anyone!!! unless you are handicapped or disabled. When my daughter got the call back to attend the second day I knew it was a scam basically if you have the money to pay no matter your looks they will accept you. That is not the real world of modeling. Don't be fooled !! luring people in talking about America's Next Top Model!!! also the AMNT who was there (Brittany Sharaun) "mentoring" said she would not go through Preview Models to advance her career they are asking you to pay 3K-5K for "online modeling lessons" and some BS production in LA where all the agents will be..More BS!!! Beware don't let them lure you, the owner and all casting directors are predators on young people hoping to fufill their modeling dreams

My daughter had a wonderful experience and she learned so much. It was a busy weekend and everything was a great experience. If you are interested in the modeling and acting industry this is a very good first experience.

Ladies and gentlemen my name is DARIEN TURNER. I was one of the casting directors for Preview Models from January, 2018 to October 1st 2018. I quit the company along with Breann Bauer, another casting director that actually went through the production process, and worked with them after. Look us up and message us on I.G. if you have any questions after reading this. On top of this we have photos, messages, recordings of conversations and a lot of models that have gone through the production that are not happy with their experience that I am in contact with. I have a lot of compelling evidence I would be happy to share with you upon request as proof. Ultimately you should make your own decision based off all the evidence First off, in my opinion A MAJORITY OF IT IS MISLEADING AND A LIE. I have never seen any award winning project runway designers like they are told at auditions, there haven’t been at the last three productions I’ve been working and we even scramble to find designers last minute. There are not 30 agencies in attendance, I have never seen this. For instance, July had only fourteen and to be honest, I’m not even sure they are all nationally ranked. Most people are too excited to actually pay attention and notice these things or know any better. It’s a cheap looking shaky stage at the production with definitely not as many people in attendance as they claim. As far as the 86% success rate, people do your homework.The “company headquarters” is a P.O. box in Scottsdale, AZ and the phone you call is an iPhone they gave us to make it seem you were calling “the office”.In short our job was about “finding talent” and getting them to pay in full for these “modeling services” and getting commission off of every contract. We tell them that they've been selected as a "finalist" but in truth we call almost everyone with a script and tell them that to increase our chances of getting as many people to pay.I want you to know I QUIT because the company clearly was taking advantage of people and their kids that didn't know any better. AS FAR AS THESE REVIEWS you see BELOW this one before 10/21/2018. I DID THAT.I sat with each person at the production starting in march 2018, my first production. I literally typed most of their reviews and told them what to say. As far as the random reviews you see on here, Breann, others and myself were told to leave reviews and make it look like people were leaving positive reviews and excited for them to come to their city.Reason one not getting paid for work we did and constantly late paying us and were unreliable and unprofessional. We are waiting on Josh and the CFO Nick Cipriano, who works for Morgan Stanley to pay us for work done for the company with no resolution to date. We have had to resort to hiring an attorney and contact the Bureau of Labor Industry. At which point Josh wrote Breann threatening her and trying to intimidate her with "You pissed people off with money, and you will feel the full effect of it" (then just pay us?) and "let's part quietly". (I wonder why?) And we aren’t the only ones they owe people.At this point I walked away and feel much better. It's crazy people will do anything to be included because it looks so glamorous and exclusive and they have never been to L.A.Literally the last guy that worked for the company Nick Rains, warned me of all of these things. A lot of lies were told to get people excited and sell them on the idea of being a huge star. By making you sell yourself to them, to accept you. Honestly you guys and girls I feel it's not worth it at all. Breann and I are extremely disappointed in Josh for lying to all of you, promising things that aren't true. The reason I quit is because of the many red flags. Reason one, Josh dating one of the girls going through the production WHO WAS 16 YEARS OLD, Josh is almost 40.When I met her she was 17 and literally just turned 18 in September. She lied about her age to everyone so no one would know. I dealt with racist remarks, as well as discriminating remarks toward my culture and beliefs and religion that made me extremely mad and uncomfortable on numerous occasions.I wanted this experience to get my foot in the door like many of you and found out it’s a sham and that Josh’s character is hollow, a mask. I figured that I should let you know. It has to stop here or it will continue to happen to people that work for this company or go through the production. At the end of the day right is right and wrong is wrong.There you have it a full review of this business what it involves, what it’s like working for the owner as well as what to expect if you go through the production.

The experience with them was great; I met so many nice people. Made new friends from everywhere.But what I didn't really like is that In many times the setup was disorganized there was not a lot of communication between the models and the instructors. They explained thing but there were many times where you as the model would find yourself without no clue of what's next. Also I thought it was cheap for them to not provide food atleast for the party. I get where we are staying at is expensive but for the same amount that we paid they should had provided at least pizza and juice not plain water and chips.The party just sucked it was like a high school party, no Offence. Another thing the whole meet and greet I thought they should have given pictures to the agents and whoever they were interested in they should had contact them and not waste everybody's time who kept being rejected by their height or look. The experience of the runway and the whole meeting new people was my favorite; besides that it was nothing out of the ordinary! for the money that was given to them they should have given us more care.We were left there for hours in the sessions and nothing was provided to us besides water; some people were hungry and broke and not even a sandwich or cookies nothing was provided. That was the only thing I didn't really didn't like in overall.

So first they are very unprofessional. They do not care about you they care only about money and that’s what they are out to get. A BIGGGG waste of time and money! DONT DO IT! If I could rate the a no star I would.

Hi my name is Joceline Estrada I am 14 years old I am a aspiring singer, actor, dancer, and model. I live in Palmdale California and am in 8th grade. I know how to speak Spanish and understand it. I attend a school already, called Santa Clarita School of Performing Arts and take the modeling and acting/commercial classes. But I still attend public school. I live on a rancho and absolutely love it. I know how to ride horses and I have rode bulls before. I have gone to Europe and absolutely loved it. This week was honestly so much fun and amazing. It was such a great experience and definitely something to learn from. I am really focusing on modeling and acting but, I am willing to do anything as long as it helps my career. Best of luck to anyone who is chasing their dreams!!!!

I have been bamboozled into this scheme and now I'm at a point where it's like pay to go the event still or Stop paying. but then that seems like a waste of money down the drain.If these guys are so much into the Modeling/Production profession, why dont we see them "popping" on social media? at the latest fashion events? why dont they have tons of followers.. ? its 2019, if you ain't got followers you ain't got shitttt. lol. I'm just really confused. ALL this money for what? Yeah no gun was held to my head but we expect Honest people from the beginning, because when we come across shady . we want to know. Preview Models is def a Pyrmd scheme. I know that I'm wasting my money... Just really dissapointed.Then after you pay so much money is when you get the modeling materials like videos and such.. like if I've paid my deposit already then I should have access to it all..yikes. well definitely a lesson learned.

Great production... with plenty of opportunities and great experiences for anyone who is looking into modeling and acting. As well as just helping you build your self esteem and confidence. My daughter had a wonderful experience.. made life long friends and would do this all over again. Very rewarding week. Thank you Preview Models Agency for making us a part of your family. Cindy Taylor...daughter Jade Taylor.

Dont do it unless you want to pay $1,500-2,500 bucks to do a fashion show. They claim other modeling agencies will be there to meet you. I would rather move to LA and go to free castings then to pay this money. The only reason I thought they were legit is because they use America's Next Top models to appear as if they are legit. Do not waste your time.

My daughter really wanted to pursue modeling and I met the Preview Model folks at an event and they convinced us they would be of great help to us. Now, since then I've looked more into the company and feel foolish for falling for such a common grift, but that might be on me for loving my daughter and falling for this scam.Whatever, I've made my peace, we won't be getting our money back from the who runs this joint.However, I do think there should be an extra warning to all mothers and fathers who might try to "work with" Preview Models...If your child is underage you should be aware of what kind of things will be asked of or said to your child. At one point my daughter was given an "eye candy" T-Shirt, just blatant sexualization of a young kid and I'm just glad we keep tabs on our child's phone even though a grown adult should know better to contact a child to "help" her modeling career.Parents beware, there may be more at stake than money.

I am Grandparent of Infiniti Armani Hyde from Chicago,Illinosis.uis. We flew in on Thursday night and I was very surprised to see how smoothly everything went as far as Preview Models scheduled was concerned. We were put on a perfect time schedule and with all that beings said it was truly a blessing for her to be here in Hollywood, Ca for the first time. Infinti has a true passion for modeling which she started 3 years ago, she loves the runway, she love talking with people, networking with the other models as well. She has done so many fashions show in Chicago, along with Extras positions in filming. She works extra hard on her walks, and practices very much on her own. Infiniti has an outgoing personality which everyone loves. The personality is her own and she was working with a park district as a dance instructor, cheerleading coach in her school as well. She has hopes and dreams to come back to LA or any Fashion Industry to continue her dreams. The love she has for modeling is super amazing. She prays that something will come true for her and so does her family which is truly behind her as well.

I attended Preview Models Oct fashion 17 this weekend. The experience gained from this event was very valuable to me. I learne about the fashion industry's inner workings, trained with professional models in the modeling classes and gained so much knowledge from the Acting classes. Made a lot of contacts with fashion designers, agents, managers and great people that i now call friends. I believe Its a valuable experience i would recommend going through the program to anyone interested in the fashion or entertainment industry and making their carrier grow.

So first they are very unprofessional. They do not care about you they care only about money and that’s what they are out to get. A BIGGGG waste of time and money! DONT DO IT! If I could rate the a no star I would.
