Ariza Talent & Modeling Agency Inc

I found out about Jeff online and he has been nothing short of amazing the entire experience. Always understanding, great on communicating, and ready to help you with your goals, I couldn't ask for better! I had no previous experience worth noting going into his office and in just a short stretch of time I've booked a modelling gig for an international hair company! And they're never slow on pay, three weeks after my gig the check was in my hand! If you're looking to expand your career in the industry, Jeff is the man to call! more

I met Jeff back in 1998 after being in Florida for about a year. At that time I was debating whether or not to stay in Florida. His agency - Ariza sent me on my first Florida audition (“which I booked”). I appreciate Jeff’s directness and honesty. Because of that experience I was encouraged to remain in Florida and have had countless wonderful opportunities and experiences. I have been blessed to work in commercials, film, print, TV, industrials and tons of Theater. The beauty is I found myself in places and with people that have been beyond what I could imagine. I have also have had the pleasure getting to know Jeff and his family and have seen their personal growth over the years. I truly recommend Ariza, Jeff and his staff to anyone who is interested in the business. Hey Jeff… “thanks –a- million!” more

Ariza has been an invaluable resource towards developing a career in entertainment. Thank you to Jeff and his staff! more

I have been working with the Ariza Talent and Modeling Agency for over a decade now. I am the owner of a New York City based, national event planning company. We rely on Jeff and his staff at Ariza to fulfill our professional obligations in Central and South Florida.\r Over the years, we have been continually impressed with the work ethic of Ariza and the quality of people that they provide for us. They are always well prepared. Some of our clients (especially in the beverage industry) are extremely selective when it comes to hiring the models. Unlike some other areas in the country, we have never experienced any problems or concerns with the professionals that Jeff and his staff have sent to us. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to continuing this great collaboration for years to come! more

I am so happy to work with Jeff at Ariza, he is a great person. As long as you do as you are told and follow directions it will all work out fine. It is a full time job running around and making it all happen but it is worth it in the end. more

I have been in the entertainment industry for over 20yrs working as a stuntman/actor. Ariza talent is how I got my start. I remember walking into office not knowing what to expect and Jeff greeted me and gave me instant advice on how to conduct myself if I am to be in the business. Not only did I learn the techniques to become a successful Model, but I was able to come out of my shell and have great success at auditions as an actor. The thorough coaching and critique I received helped sustain me over the years and is the very reason why I am STILL working in the business today. I never saw entertainment as a career choice for me until that day I walked into the office which is why Ariza has and always will be an extension of my family. more

Jeff is a wonderful agent, he gave me the greatest gift any person can give, he gave me an opportunity to my first real casting. A principal role ( Mom) for Disney World 2005 and another casting that landed me in another principal role (nurse) for Medicare 2006, that was the stepping point of my career. Thank you jeff more

I've always wanted to persue an acting career ever since I can remember and i'm so pleased that my journey into my passion was sparked by Ariza Talent Agency. Ariza Talent Agency realy helped me not only break into the acting and entertainment world but also helped me break out of some shyness and awkwardness that could've been an ill when approaching casting auditions. Ariza introduced me to opportunities and auditions but my favorite of all was when I landed a role on Nickelodeons ""Taina"" . I also got to work alongside greats like Adam Sandler in the ""Waterboy"", Tom Hanks on the HBO hit ""From the Earth to the Moon"" and was noticed around town from my feature in an all-spanish commercial that still runs on-air ten years later. I love that Ariza provides the best training for the real entertainement world but also pays their talent in a timely manner, i've never had an issue with Ariza, we'', maybe not being able to get to all the auditions at once but the again that's a good problem to have,, I would highly recomend Ariza Talent Agency to anyone who wants the best teaching, advice, training and outcome from every entertainement opportunity you're confronted with... more

I've been in the modeling and acting industry for over 20 years. After doing some research, i came across Ariza Talent & modeling agency which is licensed with the State of Florida, Department of Business and Professional Regulation. I recently joined with Ariza Talent & modeling agency, which turned my acting & modeling career around! With previous agencies I was rarely booked for auditions, print, commercials, etc. But within 6 months after joining the agency, I was booked for Disney cruise line, home depot, and universal. That's just to name a few! With my new look and comp cards, I was being booked left & right! Jeff always gave me encouraging words and good tips when going for auditions, that made me feel confident when on jobs! In previous experience my other agents took over 2 months to compensate me! With Ariza talent I was always paid within 3-6 weeks after doing the work! I would recommend Ariza Talent & modeling agency to anyone in the industry or who is wanting to be in the industry! more
