🌟 Performance and the Fleeting Spotlight: The Double-Edged Pressure on Sports and Artistic Talents 🌟 The recent article on Emma Raducanu highlights a harsh truth: a talent’s commercial appeal often hinges on their ability to perform consistently. 🏆💼 Sponsors flock to winners, but when results falter, support disappears just as quickly. This raises key questions: 1️⃣ 🌪 The impact on talents: The pressure to constantly deliver is immense, often at the expense of mental and physical health. Whether in sports or cinema, how many promising careers have been abandoned after a rough patch? 2️⃣ 💸 The role of brands: Sponsors often prefer short-term collaborations, capitalizing on the immediate "buzz." Economically, this makes sense—minimizing risks by betting on rising stars. But this creates a system where talents become disposable. 3️⃣ 🎥 A parallel with cinema: Actors and actresses face similar dynamics. A box office hit attracts new opportunities, but a few missteps can tarnish their "bankable" status. This relentless cycle makes building a lasting career increasingly difficult. 👉 Why does this short-term model dominate? ROI (return on investment) is easier to measure quickly 📈, especially with digital tools tracking campaign impact. The constant need for novelty 🆕 drives a focus on new faces and short-lived hype. 🤔 What if we thought differently? What if brands invested in long-term partnerships? Supporting talents beyond their immediate success could not only protect them but also enhance the brand’s image with more authentic, lasting connections. 💡 Performance is an asset, but it should never be the sole measure of a talent’s value. Athletes, actors, and artists alike deserve collaborations that nurture their potential over the long term. 🌍✨ --- 🔥 At Elevate Management, we believe in a different vision. We help talents build strong and sustainable careers, focusing on their authenticity, vision, and ability to inspire over time. 🛤️✨ Whether you’re an actor, athlete, or artist, our mission is to elevate you while respecting your pace and individuality. 📢 What about you? Do you think the current system puts too much pressure on talents? What alternative models would you envision? #Talents #Management #Sports #Cinema #Performance #ElevateManagement 🚀

Hollywood, Age, and Opportunities: How Europe is Redefining the Rules of the Game 🎬🌍 In Hollywood, youth often sets the agenda. Major studios rely on “fresh” faces to captivate teenage and young adult audiences, leaving actresses past their thirties with fewer opportunities. As a result, many talented actresses, labeled “too old” by Hollywood standards, struggle to find roles that truly reflect their experience and artistic depth. A Challenge That Can Become an Asset • The American Constraint: Female roles—especially in blockbusters—tend to favor the young, attractive “bombshell,” leaving little space for a natural career progression. To overcome this, an actress must demonstrate genuine acting skill and the ability to portray complex, mature characters, far beyond mere on-screen allure. • The Artistic Stakes: Meeting this challenge allows actresses to stand out through their performances. Those who succeed gain credibility, respect, and, over time, a richer array of roles. The European Alternative and Independent Cinema 🌱🎞 For actresses seeking to break free from Hollywood’s age-centric constraints, the independent scene and the European market offer a welcome refuge. • More Nuanced, Mature Roles: European and indie film circuits value age diversity, character complexity, and auteur-driven storytelling. Actresses find artistically fulfilling roles—without being judged solely by their youth. • A Strategic Advantage for European Producers: Attracting an American “ex-bombshell” seeking artistic reinvention can elevate a project’s credibility and visibility, bridging cultural gaps and enhancing international appeal. Collaborating with a recognized talent—“old” by US standards—helps European producers stand out, secure funding, festivals’ interest, and broadened audiences. The Financial and Strategic Equation 💼💡 While indie and foreign productions may not match blockbuster paychecks, the artistic legitimacy and international reach they offer can significantly boost an actress’s career, a producer’s reputation, and a film’s marketability. From prestigious European festivals to cross-border co-productions, this expanded playing field adds long-term value that transcends age-based limitations. Why Elevate Management? 🤝🚀 At Elevate Management, we help European professionals decode Hollywood’s inner workings while leveraging Europe’s unique strengths. We help you: • Identify International Talent that matches your vision. • Negotiate Smartly, balancing artistic, financial, and cultural elements. • Forge Strong Alliances to ensure greater visibility, distribution, and long-term Ready to Take Action?

🎥 "Why dream small when you can dream big?" This Vanity Fair image isn’t just a photo. It’s a vision. 🌟 A symbol of what has always captivated me about cinema: icons, universal stories, and the incredible ability to push the boundaries of creativity. I’m French 🇫🇷, and I deeply respect the legacy of our cinema. But let’s be honest: it often lacks that bold ambition, that thrill, that drive to go beyond limits that Hollywood represents. Over there, they don’t just tell stories, they craft dreams. ✨ 💡 This is why Elevate Management was born. Because I believe Europe and Hollywood have so much to offer one another. My goal isn’t just to connect two worlds—it’s to create a cultural and artistic revolution. 🚀 With Elevate, we want to prove that: ➡️ Hollywood isn’t an untouchable myth. ➡️ It’s a playground, and Europe deserves its spot on the field. 🎬 Let’s take risks.

🎯 "Yesterday, you said tomorrow." – Why Monday is the perfect day to ACT. 📅 Monday: A fresh start Every week begins with this day that so many dread. But Monday isn’t an obstacle; it’s an opportunity. A blank page to move forward, create, and transform. Yet, how many of us keep postponing our ambitions to “tomorrow”? 👉 The truth is: Tomorrow doesn’t exist. What truly matters is what you do today. 💡 Why take action NOW? Success doesn’t come from fleeting motivation but from consistent action. ✅ An idea put into motion, even imperfectly, can become a groundbreaking project. ✅ A first step, even hesitant, can open unexpected doors. ✅ Every small action matters. Never underestimate the power of now. 🔑 Elevate Management's approach: Turning ideas into impact At Elevate Management, we help bold talents take the leap. 🎬 Artists. Creators. Visionaries. We don’t push things to tomorrow. We build opportunities today by connecting international talents to European projects that redefine careers. Whether it’s a U.S. actor ready to explore French sets or a creator seeking to break into a new market, we believe in immediate action. Because in this business, just like in life, waiting is the enemy of ambition. 🔥 Your challenge this week: What have you been putting off for too long? A pitch, a project, a collaboration?

🎭 Hollywood’s Tough Love: Why Global Vision is the Future of Talent 🚀 📖 The Variety article on American actress Melissa Barrera, who faced a sudden halt in acting offers after leaving the Scream franchise, is a powerful reminder of Hollywood's unpredictability.

It’s a vibrant creative hub offering: 🎬 Richer storytelling 🎨 Deeper artistic challenges 🏆 Opportunities to elevate your craft We’ve seen it: U.S. talent has been revitalizing their careers through European projects. 🌟 Stepping beyond Hollywood isn’t about escaping—it’s about reaching higher. 💼 At Elevate Management, we’re building bridges between Hollywood and Europe. Our mission? Empowering talent with a truly global vision. Europe is more than an opportunity—it’s a stage for bold, groundbreaking careers. 💡 Take action!
