Founded by industry insider Melanie Tjoeng, PORTALS offers a thoughtful, inclusive, and boundary-pushing approach to casting — connecting brands, magazines, companies, hotels and beyond with models who not only look the part, but bring stories, spirit, and substance.
Through one-on-one creative consultations — both in-person and virtually — we tailor each casting to align with your brand’s identity and campaign vision. Whether you’re shooting in Bali, Europe, the US, or beyond, we draw from an international network of top modeling agencies and talent, including Melanie’s own agency roster.
What sets PORTALS apart is our belief that casting should feel like collaboration — intimate, intentional, and inspired. We specialize in diverse, offbeat, and editorial-forward selections that cut through sameness, while staying attuned to your creative goals.
This isn’t just casting. It’s a gateway to deeper connection, better stories, and stronger campaigns.
