is the Australian Talent Management agency good?

What worries me is their slideshow of girls in bikinis... Obviously more a model agency than an acting agency. I would suggest using their about page and finding second and third parties who would confirm their CVs. This is from their service page: "ATM contains photos, resumes, skills, profiles and video/audio reels for our artists, each with their own individual look, experience and skill base. So chances are that having logged on to ATM, you’ll find the ideal person right at your fingertips." "Serious artists are listed on ATM. Artists obtain their own personal ATM site profile which displays photos, a resume, profile information, video footage, audio reels and more. " So it sounds like it's just an online artist registry, which is searchable by casting agents. And you probably get some basic free features when you sign up, and then if you want special features, you pay. It's not uncommon, but I'd read all their policies very clearly before giving money. (Really, do they put in an effort promoting you, or is it just a matter of giving you web space. If it's the latter, you may as well build your own free website... if it's the former, it may be worth a look) This is just my opinion based on their site, it would be more worthwhile chatting to someone who is signed up/has used their service.
