ITSme International Talent SearchReviews of itsme.biz

I did a mentorship with ITSme, and honestly, it’s one of the best things I’ve done for my career as an illustrator. They really helped me understand what was missing from my portfolio and guided me toward making work that’s actually marketable. What I appreciated most was that the support didn’t just stop when the mentorship ended. They were still there to help and answer questions afterward. Because of their guidance, I even ended up getting signed with an agency under their umbrella, which was a huge milestone for me! My mentor, Kate Powell, and the CEO, Ed Burns, were both super supportive the whole way through and always happy to help when I needed it. I’d definitely recommend ITSme to anyone who wants to grow their art career 🙌

The onboarding process was smooth and slow, do one task at a time type! Which helped me to keep working with my existing projects and clients. First 6 months are a trail period and we'll see if we are best fit to each other and I'm really hoping this pair works out. I'll update my thoughts later on how it goes.

A huge shoutout to ItsMe for a fantastic and seamless welcome. I’ve just recently joined, and I’m already impressed by how professional and easy the whole experience has been. I’m eagerly looking forward to the future and can't wait to bring some incredible new illustration projects to life!

I recently joined ITSme as a new artist represented by Astound, and the onboarding experience has been very positive. The team has been friendly, professional, and helpful in guiding me through the process. Communication has been clear and timely, and I truly appreciate the support so far. I'm looking forward to the opportunities ahead!

I submitted my portfolio to ITSme looking for representation. The range of agencies working with ITSme gives them a dynamic edge, and I've been lucky to be placed under Advocate Art. It has been a smooth and clear process! Vicky the talent source manager and my main contact always takes the time to answer questions, make sure forms, links, information, etc are easy to find, and is overall wonderful. It has instilled confidence and makes me excited to work with them further!

I had a thorough one-on-one session with my mentor, Min Hae, which was extremely insightful. During the session, we clearly identified my weak areas and I received very detailed, constructive feedback. We actively worked through my problem areas, and the mentorship overall was well-structured and thoughtfully planned. I genuinely enjoyed the entire experience. There was consistent, end-to-end support through regular email communication, which helped me stay on track and accountable throughout the journey. I would absolutely recommend this mentorship to anyone who feels stuck in their illustration journey and is looking for a valuable third-eye perspective. Min also shared several industry-related tips and hacks that were incredibly helpful and practical. Additionally, Edward provided a very keen and detailed review of my portfolio. His feedback encouraged me to take the next step in my illustration journey, and both mentors were consistently supportive and motivating throughout the program. The seminars also offered meaningful industry insights and added great value to the overall learning experience.

Itsme helped me understand where I can fit into the illustration market, after considering my skills and preferences. My mentor was amazing - she gave me great feedback and explained the nuances of the market that I was not familiar with. The brief was informative, fun to illustrate and it expanded on my portfolio range. The courses and livestream answered all my extra questions, in addition to providing information on a wide range of illustration niches. We also discussed a path forward and the mentorship gave me a lot of confidence. Overall, my art will never be the same again, in the best way possible!

The ITSme mentorship was a genuinely useful experience for me. It helped me strengthen multiple areas of my drawing style, and the feedback from my mentor was both precise and insightful,always actionable and relevant to my goals. Beyond the technical improvements, the mentorship gave me a real boost of motivation and confidence and clarity for what to focus on next.
