Re: Production Scouting Requesting Fees

My experience is that ALL of these appeals to a person's desire for stardom and fame are more or less scams, including those promoted by well-known names suggesting, for example, that they were founded by famous celebrity dancers from the movies in the past. You will end up paying a lot and getting very little.
