Intl Talent Showcase at Monte Casino

Just You Model and Artist Management, a Joburg-based agency and academy, hosted Kim Myers, the director of the Arts, Orlando Florida in Joburg over a two-day talent extravaganza. The International Talent Showcase took place at Monte Casino on 18-19 October 2013.

The International Talent Showcase is for singers, actors, models and dancers. It is a launching pad for international exposure and industry opportunities. Kim Myers, the director of the Arts Expo in Orlando Florida, along with Linda Motznik personally selected artists that fit the requirements. She chose artists based on merit, who are of exceptional talent, or artists who will match the needs of certain managers and agents who attend the event. Myers will also scout on the requests of certain directors and casting directors for up-and-coming projects.

Hit American television series

Myers is highly connected in the American film industry and the fashion industry spanning New York, Milan and Hong Kong. There are few, if any, hit American television series currently screening that don't have an artist scouted by her. Her artists can be seen on Disney, Nickelodeon, Desperate Housewives, Gray's Anatomy, Hannah Montana and 90210, NCIS or on films such as The Avengers and Step up 3D. Her models have walked the runways of New York, Milan and Tokyo Fashion week. And all of these artists have started their career on stage just like the International Talent Showcase. This will be a great opportunity for those who have always dreamed of taking their talent across African shores.

Just You Model and Artist Management will also have the pleasure of hosting music producer Tashia Stafford, the CEO of Icon Studios, who produced Justin Bieber's first Platinum album, Akon, Destiny's Child and Whitney Houston amongst others. Joining her will be Nate Butler, American songwriter, music producer, vocal producer and recording artist, as well as musician and A&R for the American X Factor. Nate Butler will be opening the show with his debut album and collaborating with one of South Africa's top talents, hip hop dancer Tumi Tladi.

Tashia Stafford and Nate Butler will be holding workshops for South African artists, as well as attending a number of youth organisations and churches to connect with the youths of South Africa and uplift through their knowledge, experience and music.
