BMG Model and Talent

My son is with BMG and Michelle has been wonderful, professional and very responsive. They have gotten him some great auditions even with a pandemic. She is a hard working, really nice agent. I highly recommend BMG.

Went here for an open call. Very sketchy at first but when you get to the casting floor it is incredibly hot with so many people waiting to be called on and not enough room.

I started as a young photographer 25 years ago. Early in my career I met my friend and mentor, Michael Lyons. Michael has been instrumental in catapulting my career as a successful commerical photograher. His extraordinary and vast knowledge and encouragement has helped me and others to take risks and expand my repetiore of subject matters on film. I respect and love Michael for all he has done for me and call it an honor to be his friend.

Michael is very focused , simple man , down to earth . He been very panctual and helpful. Like to work with him .

Mike Lyons and his team are some of the kindest people you will ever work with. Thats a rarity in this industry. They will work as hard as you are willing to work. I have nothing but lovely things to say about the first person to take a chance on me in NYC.

Unprofessional. Seek another agency.

I came in for an open call. I was told to make an appointment to come back in which I did. I was told I would be signed to the agency on a contingency that once If I was able to book jobs I would be signed. I filled out my paperwork and was told to send all my information to Mike the manager of the fitness part of the agency. I submitted everything to Mike within 48 hours. He never responded or acknowledged my emails, when you call, he is either in a "meeting", left the office, or "busy". I went to Instagram to see how other models liked being with the agency and the ones in fitness under mike had nothing positive to say. He is never easily accessible. This is just my two cents

A few days ago I attended an OPEN CALL for modeling print work. The place was relatively empty with 2 people siting in the reception area. A young girl approached me and said "yes", as in why are you here? For a moment I thought I arrived in a wrong place. When I explained why I was there she started asking me questions and some were personal in front of the 2 very noisy models! I was shocked with the lack of professionalism and hospitality! Then she asked if I had my head-shots and resume with me. After I showed it all to her and she saw I wasn't new to the business, she said "great" and told me to wait while she'll shows it to "Mike". She quickly returned and said that "Mike" was busy and asked me to email everything to him instead. I said, wouldn't it be better for me to leave my hard copies (enveloped) with you now since I'm here already? She said, "no" email it to him. Now, it took me a lot of time to get there. Even if they couldn't see me, they should have accepted my hard copies as ALL agencies do and offered a common courtesy and professionalism!!! I can now see why they had an OPEN CALL for two days. They are rude, unprofessional and no one wants to work with them!! And neither do I!!
