Owner
New Faces
(Performing Arts industry)
March 1995 — Present (14 years 10 months)
New Faces® was the very first online portfolio site (of any kind), the first online agency, and also the first online community for talent.
New Faces® was the pioneer for a new business model in which unrepresented models and actors could directly book assignments and bypass paying agency commission. It also was the first site to provide a venue for freelance talent to promote themselves internationally in order to attract agency representation.
New Faces® is a free resource for anyone who needs to book or scout models or actors, or agencies who want to find new clients. Check it out at www.NewFaces.com
