Dear Current and Future Members of Talent Works,
We are proud to announce that the TALENT WORKS website
has been updated
and
we are ready to rock and roll!
All talent whose memberships have expired have been
removed from the
site.
Time to get your information back on line!
Memberships of all talent currently online, will
expire on September
30,
2007. We've given you a few extra months during our
"reconstruction"!
As a reminder, this year we will not publish the
directory. It was
very
costly to print and to mail plus our concern was that
some clients were
just
throwing it on a shelf and not using it. So, what we
are going to do
this
year is send out an "update" letter to the nearly 500
people on the
mailing
list including producers, directors, ad agencies,
production companies,
etc.
SIX times throughout the coming year. Yes, that is 6
times that we
will
mail a letter updating our clients as to the
activities on the website.
This will include names of new members, members who
have been booked,
etc.
That way TALENT WORKS will be in front of the clients
on an
every-other-month basis and they will remember our
name!
This will cause the clients to go back and review the
site often to see
who
is new! In the interim, they will be viewing your
pictures and resume
again!
Feel free to join or renew your current membership
through Paypal for a
mere
$100 annual fee. (Approximately $0.27 a day!) If you
are renewing, as
soon
as you enroll through Paypal, we will get your
information back on
line. If
you would prefer to mail a check, please make it
payable to TALENT
WORKS and
mail it to:
TALENT WORKS
3601 S. Congress Ave., Ste. C-105
Austin, TX 78704
By joining immediately, your annual memberships will
begin October 1,
2006,
and expire September 30, 2007. Additional talent may
join throughout
the
year and each will have an expiration date of the last
day of the month
prior to joining, i.e. if you join any time in
December, 2006, your
expiration date would be November 30, 2007. The
easiest way to join is
online, but if you would prefer to mail it in, you may
download a
Registration Form at www.talentworks-usa.com
Many of the talent now list their Talent Works web
address just below
their
names on their resumes. This also helps spread the
word! So, if you
don't
have that information on your resume, you might want
to add it
immediately!
We offer a free link to your personal website as well
as to your
agency's
website.
Congratulations to all the talent who booked
everything from SAG
nationals,
to regionals, to print work through Talent Works, not
to mention the
countless auditions members received!
Keep up the excellent work!
A special welcome to Milan Antal who will be
maintaining the site for
us!
Milan may be contacted at: info@...
If you want to
update
your headshots, you may send jpegs to Milan.
Remember, photos must be
210
pixels wide (max), 260 pixels tall (max), thumbnails
must be 80 x 80
and ALL
@ 72 DPI. Be sure and clearly mark each as to
location: "LEFT",
"CENTER",
"RIGHT" and "THUMBNAIL". All photographs must be of
professional
quality.
We reserve the right to not post any inappropriate
photograph(s).
We will need to know how you wish your name to appear
on your webpage
together with the name of your agent, if any. If you
do not have an
agent,
we will need a contact telephone number to list on the
webpage.
Be sure and check with your accountant, but this is
most likely
entirely tax
deductible and an incredible investment in your
future.
Let us know if you have any questions! Here's to
another successful
year
for all of us!
By the way, we still have about 20 copies of both the
2005 and 2006
directories which we will be happy to give to members
appearing in them
on a
first-come, first-served basis.
