What is IMTA
• The International Modeling and Talent Association, IMTA is the largest and most prestigious modeling and acting convention in the world. Over 300 agents, managers and casting directors from around the world attend the convention to scout models and talent from companies like ours. The talent discovered at IMTA is endless and includes many names that might surprise you. To learn more about IMTA, go to www.imta.com, and see 100’s of models and actors whose careers started right through IMTA.
• Since 1987, IMTA has become the recognized leader in putting new faces in front of the people whose business is to identify that illusive spark that heralds the next rising star or supermodel. It is held twice a year, once in Los Angeles, and once in New York City. It is your opportunity to see and be seen by the leaders of the modeling/talent industry. It was at this convention where celebrities like Eva Longoria, Ashton Kutcher, Katie Holmes and others were discovered. In 1994, Barbizon of Georgia joined IMTA. Since then, we have been preparing and training aspiring actors/models for their opportunity of a lifetime. For Barbizon Georgia, the success stories have been endless... From major motion pictures, commercials, sitcoms, to national and international runays and magazine covers.
