Success Stories

Through StarNow I applied to be in a short film called "Working Girl" and this was filmed in December. I absolutely loved it! Since then I have got myself a lovely agent and am currently being considered for three different roles: a short film, a feature film and a modelling job. Thanks to StarNow for kicking off a very exciting future!

I have been using StarNow since 2009 as it allows me to apply for projects I am interested in. When I first started using the site it was mainly used by film students and I did short films to hone my craft. Over the years it has led to bigger roles including Catwalks, Feature Film roles, TV series roles, and Lead in a TVC for a Bank.

After applying to represent NZ at WCOPA 2011 and receiving a raft of gold medals, it put my career back on track. Dreams can become reality, you just need to take the steps to make it happen. I've had a write up in a national magazine & Marlaina's Kitchen FB Page now has 24k followers. 'A Seasoning' will be released 2016.

I found a model search on StarNow (Cosmopolitan Model Search). I entered it, got accepted into it, went to the heat, and made it to the finals! That was my goal. But then I also made it to nationals. I am so happy to say I was one of three winners of the Cosmopolitan Model Search. I won both national and international contracts.

I had a featured role in a $50 million U.S. feature film based on David and Goliath called Final Empire. It filmed in Tunisia, London and Canada.

In 1999 whilst living in Malta I was cast in The Gladiator and I was fortunate enough to work side by side with Russell Crowell in multiple scenes. Needless to say that it was an awesome experience. My last gig was being cast in a music video playing the part of an undercover cop.

After joining StarNow less than three months ago I was scouted as a state finalist in Miss World Australia and approached by several modeling agencies, finally signing with Gear Model Management. Through StarNow, I have been put in contact with respected Australian producers and garnered interest from international record companies.

I have been chosen as lead singer with 18 piece orchestra 'Jazz Knights' and doing extra work on new production TV series 'RELIK' and its all thanks to StarNow.

Made it to the front cover of Lita Swimsuit Issue Magazine!

StarNow have been really helpful in showcasing my talents. Two of the shorts I did recently (lead roles), that were cast through StarNow, have been entered into the Galway Film Fleadh (Festival). And a StarNow casting that I played the lead in last year was shown at the Cannes Short Corner this year! Two IMDB credits is a bonus... Thanks guys!

I have only been a member of StarNow for 3 weeks. In that time, I have worked with award-winning and world-renowned photographer, Juliet Taylor and modeled for designer label, 'Marvin'. I'm loving the experience I am gaining and the people I am working with, like professional photographers, makeup artists and stylists.
