| IMPORTANT INFORMATION At "A A & T R", we are frequently contacted by various members of the public and corporate clients looking for artists and performers to suit their particular needs. If you have developed a performance suitable for corporate functions, festivals, clubs, arts events or children's parties, please be our guest and use The Talent Register to showcase your talent! PRIORITY of listings Priority of listings are given to: firstly Paid listings, then to those with Video Files, followed by those with Audio Files, next to those with the maximum number or photos in descending order, and thereafter, the date the profile was created in descending order. Example: a paid listing with all features would be in number 1 position unless there is already a person with all features in that position. In which case you would be in the 2 position. This position is then locked as yours. New paid members with all features will come after you. Should you display your name? This is left up to the individual. In some cases it has advantages while for others it is a security issue. If you feel uneasy about this we suggest you use a nom de plume or "user name" of your own invention. Disclosure of name, address and telephone numbers is not permited unless you have opted for a paid listing. Those with paid listings display this information at their own risk!

Avoid direct sunlight or photos taken with a flash. See the popular profiles for some good examples. Write about your skills Detail your past accomplishments. If you don't have a lot of experience, that's ok - everyone started out in the same position. Write about your goals in the industry. It's better to have a paragraph of text than an empty space. Upload photos, video, or music. You can have up to 8 photos so again, if you don't have much experience make sure your photos make up for it. And for perfection add a video, an animated talking person gives so much more information. We take this early opportunity to warn those who choose to enter this field to have no illusions, hard work goes with success and glamour and even then, many will not fulfill their expectations. Although not everyone can become a famous model many do still earn a good income from this industry. The Film and Television industry is flourishing in Australia and you don't have to look like a famous model for some of these roles. Often the studios are looking for ordinary but attractive people who can blend into different situations, bit parts or crowd scenes, but even for these roles, the right attitude is essential. A relaxed personality, positive outlook, good presentation and the determination to succeed will stand you in good stead. As in all industries those better equipped are more likely to find success! Training in deportment, singing, dancing and acting will not go astray, as well as a professionally presented photographic portfolio. Good Luck.
