| John Robert Powers MEMPHIS STUDENTS WON BIG AT IPOP LOS ANGELES! WHAT IS IPOP? iPOP! is an incomparable opportunity for young performers who have training and want to participate in a real-life experience auditioning for their career as an actor, model, singer or dancer. iPOP! is not a beauty contest, nor an event with competitions that are irrelevant to real-world situations. To enter the world of entertainment, performers continually face the ultimate test of being auditioned, interviewed and demonstrating their skills. iPOP! recognizes the value of your training, and also recognizes that performers in the competitive world of entertainment continue the learning process through auditioning and performing. Our business has become increasingly competitive, and it is increasingly important that those who wish to work in fashion, film and television be given every aid to assure their success. iPOP! is designed to give young actors, models, singers and dancers the opportunity to perform for managers and agents who are truly in a position to launch careers. Managers and agents who come to scout and discover talent and models are often names in the business who these young performers wouldn’t be seen by if it weren’t for iPOP! iPOP! participants are ALL seen by agents, managers and casting directors at iPOP!’s First Impressions Go-See and Open Call. Performers are scheduled with as little “wait time” as possible and experience this entrée to how the business works with the support of their Director and the entire iPOP! team. iPOP! provides a contemporary and positive approach to acting, modeling, singing and dancing. Every participant is respected for their courage, abilities and training. iPOP! is an event that invites the media and top people in the business and our goal is to produce an event we can all be proud of. We’ve had tremendous positive feed- back from many who attended our 2007 event. We look forward to working together and a magnificent Awards Night Celebration of Success Showcase at iPOP! 2008 in Hollywood! |
| Shelby King "iPOP 2006!!! iPOP 2006 in New York was incredible!!. The competition, seminars, feedback and the meeting of so many agents and casting directors was an awesome experience. iPOP 2006 gave Shelby the chance to showcase and fine tune her skills. She got a taste of competing, grew sociably and learned the reward that comes from hard work. Shelby placed in her division Winner of Swimsuit, 1st in Runway, 2nd place- Model of the year and Top 10 in fashion print. Since we have been back in Memphis, she has been sought by agents in New York, California, Nashville and various cities. Her photo was seen in the Almost Famous Magazine by a casting director which gave her to opportunity to read for a leading roll with Renee Zellwelger. I believe the exposure Shelby received during iPOP New York 2006 is a great start for her career. Shelby and I had a wonderful time and look forward to the next opportunity!"
