Where it all began CDM Model & Talent began with a desire to create a safe and respected agency for models and various individuals with artistic talents (Actors, Photographers, Artist, Musicians, etc...). The idea for CDM Model & Talent started back in 2008 when Dave Morey; it's founder had just launched it's sister company CDM Media Group and began development on the Media Group's first magazine design. Through the magazine, we were introduced to several models and after various conversations with them, we learned of a number of scams that populate the modeling industry. This did not sit well with us.
During the following two years, the design team at CDM Media Group learned all we could of the modeling industry. We learned that there are some very reputable agencies throughout the world. We also learned of some that were not so reputable. We learned of the many scams that plague the modeling industry and the red flags to watch for (review "Model Sense" to learn more about these scams and what to watch for). We learned what we needed to do to provide a quality service for our clients. Then in 2010; our founder with the aid of the CDM Media Group design team, announced the creation of a new company, CDM Model & Talent. CDM Model & Talent is based on three beliefs. The first is that we provide a safe and secure environment for our clients. The second is that we manage and guide our client's careers in a positive and professional manor. Finally the third is that we treat each other like family. A client should not have to worry that they are being taken advantage of by the people that are representing them. The owner of CDM Model & Talent is straight forward and upfront with how he does business. With that in mind, he wished this statement to be included. "CDM Model & Talent is still new. We can not offer what the larger agencies can. We do not yet have the contacts that they do. Nor do we have all the skill that they do. We are learning though and we are making those contacts. Any model or talent that signs with us must be aware of this fact and be patient. However, if they are, they will be part of the ground floor of something new. They will grow with the company and experience the excitement of taking on this new challenge. They will help to build the CDM family." |
