How is TMG different from others in Tucson?

Very simple! TMG is NOT a modeling agency or school. We are a scouting and development company. Our main focus is finding, educating and training potential models and actors for national and international placement with major market agencies.

Tucson is a small fashion/acting /commercial market with few opportunities for experience or actual jobs. As a select member of IMTA (International Modeling and Talent Association) TMG can offer its aspiring models and actors exposure to hundreds of modeling and acting agents at the IMTA conventions. These agents come to IMTA from all over the world - from all the major markets - New York, Los Angeles, Miami, Chicago, Paris, Milan, London, Tokyo, Barcelona, Australia, etc. WOW! CAN you imagine all that!

What are the requirements to be a model or actor?

Generally, a female fashion model is 5'8" to 5'11" tall, size 4-7 and between 12 to 23 years of age. Male fashion models are 5'11" to 6'2" tall, wear a jacket size 40 to 42 and are 15 to 28 years old. There are, of course, exceptions, but these are the accepted general guidelines. (Kate Moss is about 5'6 1/2"!) Fashion models work in runway shows, showroom modeling, editorial and fashion print (such as magazines, advertising ads, catalogs and billboards) and many also do TV commercials.

Commercial models can be of any age, height and size and have more of a "real people" look for everyday product and service advertising.

Actors/actresses again can be of any age, height and size, but must also possess a charismatic and outgoing personality. Actors/actresses work in film, video, television and theatre.

All of the above should be fit, have healthy hair, clear skin and good teeth.

TMG scouts for kids, starting at 4 years of age, teens and adults.
