Stay away from this so called agency! They will scam you for being represented by them to take classes. No agency will ask you to pay upfront! Period! Run like the wind! read more

I am giving Stars Talent Studio a 1 out of 5 and I would really give 0 out of 5 if I could. I am a full-time actor and I was looking for representation in the growing Utah market and I responded to one of their postings that they are looking for new talent. I responded and received a link to schedule a phone interview. We had a seemingly pleasant telephone interview with a lady named, Ali Clark, but what striked me as odd/scammy is that they required that I take an acting class via zoom with a lady named "Heidi at UFA," in order to be signed as an actor. The class was $600 ($300 which I had to pay before finishing my call right then and there and the other $300 would be debited out the weekend I started my class). I'm not here to toot my own horn, but I just finished studying at the New York Film Academy, and they tell me that I need to take some random class to get signed. Yeah, ok. I should have known better, but I paid the first installment. After speaking with some actors that they represent who told me that the "agency hasn't gotten them anything yet," and after speaking with some industry friends of mine, they felt that I'd gotten scammed, I asked Stars Talent for my money back and they ignored every text/email that I sent. The same goes for the reps at the acting school. To sum it it, DON'T even speak to them. They're clearly here to make a buck off of hard working actors' backs. There are plenty of other REPUTABLE agencies out there. Here is their info: Wendy Woods / Head Talent Scout Stars Talent Studio / 2901 W.

The quality of service that was provided was exceptional. Even though it felt like a larger agency, we felt like we were part of a family..

Ego, gaslighting, disorganization, dishonesty, spamming auditions, lack of professionalism From the outside looks great but buyer beware read more

This agency is amazing!! I am lucky to have gotten signed by them just a few days ago. They are always in constant contact with me, assisting, answering questions, and walking me through each step of the onboarding process. And there is a lot to do!! But Wendy, Ali, Liz, and Amber definitely go out of their way to help and is it ever comforting! As a new model/actress in the industry, it's nice to see a high profile agency taking on new clients with little to no experience. They seem to understand that you have to start somewhere and I couldn't ask for a better agency to back me and show me the ropes. I have such a good feeling that we are going to be the perfect match!!! And they sent me a welcome swag bag of a proper home studio setup!! read more

See all

Amber's a great Agent. I'm a Pro LA Actor, and I just booked my first fitness gig in Utah. Super fun set. Recommend this agency for POC artists seeking to expand in smaller regions. read more

Unfortunately it's a scam just like barbizon pay to play they aren't an agency. This will say they are and then they will say oh no you have to take acting classes with us. And do these headshots with us. Which no acting agency in the world would say that. Advise: any company that ask you to pay money even for a service run away don't contact them. Agents only take a percentage out of what you make when you get paid. After not before. Run guys run. read more

Being a part of the Stars family has been an amazing experience. Ali and Amber are wonderful to work with! I'm so fortunate to have found an agency, that is so reputable and connected to Hollywood, and yet so accessible to those of us who are brand new to the industry. Thank you for the opportunity to make my dreams, my reality! read more

Unfortunately this agency is a scam and will ask you to pay money upfront to even offer any "representation." Very unprofessional and rude with the way they spoke in the emails which was already a red flag for me. Spoke with a professional who is my coach in this industry and was immediately told to cut contact with them. Anyone is welcome to reach out as I do have pictures of a full conversation. read more

Annette and Amber have been amazing! I have never been asked to pay any upfront fees like someone people mention on reviews. our biggest Jobs have been with Stars. Amber has been around for a long time, and knows a ton of people and producers who will only book through them. read more

Love their industry ethics especially for kids! It's been great for our family. Well connected, Amber works so hard for everyone and gives it her all! She is super helpful and amazing. Once you train a little bit with them, you'll know exactly how to do everything and you'll be set for success. read more

Amber is THEE most supportive agent I've ever had in my acting career. She truly cares about her talent and getting us booked! I sometimes get more auditions than I can handle which is a great thing. Not sure about these comments about money up front, that hasn't been my experience at all. I pay my agency when I work, which they deserve! read more

I started at Stars because I want to become an actress and model. In the two years that I was with them I only got 1 booking and three auditions. At first I assumed it was because I'm inexperienced but quickly learned all they want is your money. The so called 'agents' always have something else they need from you that costs $200+ and they rarely reply to your emails. They told me I needed new headshots so I did it (cost $300) and the photos were horrible! They put me in old clothes they had just gotten from DI and made me look much older than I am. They also told me that they photographer WOULD NOT edit the photos and if they liked any I was to pay $30 each to have them edited on top of the 300 I had already paid for the shoot.Then after not getting a reply back on whether or not the new pictures were suitable they said they hadn't received any photos. They won't let you audition unless you do everything they ask beforehand which is all more money from your pocket. ABORT MISSION read more

I have to say, Amber was a joy to work with. I called her with a bit of urgency to find the right person for a shoot, and after describing what I was looking for she went to find many potential people and send their headshots to me. She jumped on the ball right away and I was incredibly impressed with her dedication. For this reason, when I decided to go a different direction with the casting, I wanted to at least put it out there that this is an excellent agency to work with, from the client end (the side with which I have experience). I certainly anticipate using them in the future for gigs, especially for anything last-minute. Thank you, Amber, for the great work you're doing. Five stars. read more

Very professional. If you know me, I've been around lived in NYC,Los Angeles, Mexico City, San Fransico etc. NOT A NEWBIE. Neither is Amber who runs Stars Talent. She cuts to the chase and get's it done. Five STARS for STARS. read more

I've been with Stars now for a few months and have gotten so many auditions in such a short amount of time! I'm so grateful to Amber for taking me on and always being on top of everything. She's so generous with her time and always answers my questions. read more

We've been very happy with Stars since my daughter got signed. The classes helped her build her confidence and skills so she was her best for auditions or photoshoots! My daughter has booked several paying opportunities, it's been a lot of fun and we know how hard the staff and Amber works to help everyone succeed. read more

Working with Stars Talent Studio has been great. Amber works very hard to provide solid opportunities for her clients to book work. Since joining Stars, I have booked several commercials. As with all industries, you get out what you put into it, and Stars provides many opportunities to improve your craft. Amber has years of experience in the industry, and I'm fortunate to work with her. If you are a seasoned pro and need a new agent or are looking to break into the industry, I'd highly recommend working with Stars Talent Studio. read more

Have had a great experience with Stars. Friendly, and motivated to book their talent. They are great about keeping in touch and helping to assemble the marketing materials needed. I have had a wonderful time on set with other Stars talent and fantastic clients. Quality people all around. read more

This is not a real agency. This so-called talent agency will not help you get booked and they do not care about you as much as they care about taking your money. If you want go anywhere in this industry do not go to Stars Talent. Any real talent agency will Invest their time into getting you jobs and not getting you take their expensive "training programs". They talk down to talent in a very unprofessional way creating the illusion that you need to pay them to train you. Whatever you do, do not go here! read more

The moment I walked in the door to Stars, I knew it was the agency for me. Everyone working there is so positive and they make you feel right at home. Amber is absolutely adorable and really cares about helping you make your dreams come true. With that said, they offer the best acting classes around to make you the best you can be. I have been taking the acting classes from Coral and I love them! They have taught me so much about how to audition and what to do/not to do. Coral is so much fun, hilarious, and a great teacher. I feel like I am finally on the path to living my dream and I owe it all to Stars. read more

Don't trust this agency! They are scam artists. We paid hundreds of dollars just to cover fees to have the agencies "web developers" to add our headshots to their website. After submitting professional photos to the agency, they told us they "weren't up to par" and the kids needed to wear different colored clothing in the photos. So we went to a different photographer and took new photos. They then said that the new ones didn't have "the look" and the kids had "fake smiles" I asked why all the other headshots on their site did not follow the same guidelines and they said they were in the process of "cleaning their website up". Their third party system Podio is terrible. I would upload photos and fill out the profile several times just to have the entire profiles and answers get deleted. They agents would call me and leave voicemails for me to contact them about jobs and then I would call them back and never hear back from them. When they DID call me back, none of them had any idea who called me or why. I took my son in for one of our monthly check in's and the owner got hostile with me in front of my 9 year old boy because I asked about the other headshots on their site. She was very unprofessional to the point where her own employees were apologizing on her behalf. We paid money and never got on the site or got any help with any "talent services" or even possible auditions. They kept telling me I SHOULD use them to create comp cards and get professional services done because the ones I got from other professional photographers did not have "the look". I have chosen to go to another agency and have seen a world of difference in the service, technology and auditions. Just take the time to look around and even pay more for a place where you will get a return on your investment. read more

This agency is definitely one of a kind. It focuses on healthy role models in the media, unlike most other agencies. If you want to be successful, it's in your hands to do so. If your marketing is in place, you will succeed. There is no hidden agenda, which I appreciate. If you want to have a speaking role, you must have training from somewhere. There is no pressure to use their photographer or to develop because it lies in the talent's hands to become a success. Don't use this agency if you plan on not developing or for them to do all the work for you. They want serious talent. They are there to assist you in every way possible by giving you the tools necessary to become an amazing talent! read more

Every single employee is professional yet friendly and I feel so welcome every time I am at the studio. I love the staff!

Stars is very professional and care about getting you booked. The best agency I have worked with. If you want to get your acting, modeling, or singing career etc started you should definitely talk to stars. They take time to work with you and truly care about your career. I have already gotten booked for a commercial, they are amazing. read more
