Frequently asked questions
Straight answers about membership, castings, and the studio. Still unsure? Contact us or join the roster.
What is Model and Talent Services?
MTS is a photography studio and casting platform for emerging models, actors, and entertainers. We help build portfolios and connect talent with paid castings from local and international productions — based in Toronto / GTA, working beyond Canada.
Is this permanent employment?
No. Bookings are project-based: commercials, film, lifestyle, and studio work with clear rates. Membership gives access to opportunities and tools — not a permanent job contract.
Who can join?
Talent (models, actors, dancers, entertainers) building a career, and industry professionals (casting directors, photographers, producers) who need to reach the right people quickly.
How do paid castings work?
Members see curated casting calls with location and pay details, then submit through the member cabinet. We focus on real gigs with transparent rates — not an endless unclassified job board.
Do I need a professional portfolio first?
Not necessarily. Studio photography and guidance are part of what we offer for beginners and prospect talent. A stronger portfolio helps you book, and we can help you get there.
Where do you work?
The studio is Toronto / GTA based. Castings and talent also connect across Canada and internationally (for example Vancouver, Miami, New York, and remote bookings when the project allows).
How do I create a profile?
Use Join to choose Talent or Industry, then create your profile in the member cabinet. Once active, you can receive castings and manage submissions.
How do I contact the studio?
Use the Contact page for studio questions. Membership and casting support also run through the member cabinet once you have an account.
