A is for Attitude

You've got the look. You've got the talent. Now it's time for an attitude check. A great attitude is an asset that will carry you far in this industry. Being easy to work with, flexible, generally nice and upbeat will make you even more attractive to agents, managers and casting directors. Treat everyone (potential contacts, your fellow contestants and IMTA Staff) at the Convention with respect and a positive attitude. Casting directors have told us that between equally talented actors/models, the one with the better personality will get the job. Plus, you'll want everyone to remember you as down-to-earth and friendly after you win your Oscar!

a. Of or relating to the act of winning.

b. Successful; victorious: the winning entry; the winning team.

c. Attractive; charming: a winning personality; a winning smile.

At IMTA, there are many ways to win! Of course, there are the tangible things such as winning or placing in a competition, receiving an honorable mention, signing a contract, or collecting a business card from an agent or manager who is interested in you.

• Developing a professional attitude and discovering what it takes to make it.
• Making friends with other models and talent from across the United States and internationally.
• Learning how to present yourself in the best possible manner.
• Gaining confidence in your abilities and talent.
• Having the courage to do anything! Let's face it, after you've performed your monologue or walked the runway for the top industry professionals, you can succeed anywhere!
