MAX Agency Press Release – August 13, 2014

Max Agency Toronto has been turning out amazing talent for a decade now and this week’s feature is Jamie McCormick.

Toronto, ON, August 14, 2014 – Max Agency Toronto has been turning out amazing talent for a decade now and this week’s feature is Jamie McCormick. Jamie spoke to us about his three latest experiences on set for a commercial with Blue Cross, a commercial and print advertisement with Goodlife Fitness and a spot in a promotional video for Cityline, all of these bookings were obtained through MAX Model and Talent Agency Toronto.

Jamie had this to say about Blue Cross;

“It was very interesting to watch them film the commercial for Blue Cross because it was a combination of family in the background and lead actors in front, we shot the commercial in French and English and they did the voiceovers while we were there. I’ve ended up with people from all over Ontario and Quebec saying ‘I swear there was someone who looked exactly like you on TV.’ I was wearing a fake cast all day. It was a very interesting experience.”

Jamie, a MAX Agency Toronto Model and Actor, has been creatively and financially rewarded for his efforts as exemplified in his work for Goodlife. Jamie was hired for the commercial component but managed to get print work with the campaign as a result;

“It was awesome! The crew ran an extremely fun and inspiring kind of shoot. It was a lot of work. It was a couple days of shooting. The thing about that shoot is we were trying to beat the rain, trying to shoot in three separate spots, some of it was in door and some of it was out door and we were always on the run. We were shooting everywhere from an arena to a park in downtown Toronto and then back to Goodlife. It’s one of my favorite experiences so far.”

Jamie’s latest spot was for Cityline; A high profile opportunity featuring Cityline celebrities. Jamie appreciated the opportunity immensely and considered it a valuable learning experience.

“Cityline was the most technical shoot I’ve ever done. They were using a special technology with a robotic arm taking the exact same path at the exact same rate as the talent. It was the same technology they use in Hollywood when it looks like the talent is on the screen at the same time as a graphic or animated character but they layer it. It used to be done with a split screen. The camera would follow the exact same path the exact same pace and it looks like the host was walking at normal speed. So it’s really cool. It was the highest end shoot technically that I’ve ever been on.”

Jamie McCormick’s opportunities are frequent and he is offered auditions all the time even with the old black and white snap shot he’s been using as a professional photo, “I can’t get to as many auditions as Max Agency sets up for me because I work full-time and I live out of the city but Max Agency Toronto has done a great job with the time I can dedicate to this opportunity. It’s a lot of fun!”

The Spirit Agency, Novel New Talent and Modeling Agency

February 14, 2011 – Attorney and entrepreneur Dennis VanDerGinst, has recently opened a new and novel talent and modeling agency, dubbed “The Spirit Agency.” Encouraged and inspired by super-agent, Paul Fisher, VanDerGinst created “Spirit” in order to offer a “safe haven” for talented models and entertainers. “The modeling industry is probably the only entertainment industry that does not have a union available to protect rights of the worker”, said VanDerGinst, “We intend to run our agency as though our models were unionized. We will not allow them to be exploited by clients. We will do our best to ensure they work in a safe environment. We will make sure they are paid fairly and timely. We will be available to offer emotional guidance, legal counsel and financial advice. It is a shame to see young models making lots of money who wind up with nothing later in their careers. We want to do what we can to protect our models and other entertainers.”

VanDerGinst is also the managing partner of VanDerGinst Law, and the national director of American Spirit Pageants. “The Spirit Agency was a natural fit with what we already do”, said VanDerGinst, “We meet lots of talented and beautiful women through the Pageant, and through the law firm we represent many talented people with their business and other legal issues. So, there is a lot of synergy between what we were already doing and what “Spirit” will be offering. As an attorney there are many legal services that I can offer that most agencies cannot.”

One of the novel characteristics of American Spirit Pageants is that is the only national pageant to have fundraising as a judged component in the competition. Likewise, VanDerGinst wants to encourage his talented clients to give back to the community. “I am a firm believer that if you are blessed with gifts such as talent, beauty, business acumen or something else that generates wealth, you have a responsibility to do what you can to help others. We want to make it easy for our clients to do so. We call it our “Role Model” program”, says VanDerGinst, “It is a program designed to identify opportunities for our clients to give back to the community in a way that will enhance their own image, help them from a tax standpoint, make them feel good about themselves, and most importantly assist worthy charitable efforts.”

The Spirit Agency represents female and male models and just about every category of entertainer from anywhere around the world. You can read more about the agency at: http://www.thespiritagency.com
