The first step of actually finding out what an agency is, what an agency does, any agent in any city looks at pictures of kids who want to be a model who have never been a model before. Anyone will look at your picture. All they're asking for is for you to send your height, your measurements, your shoe size, your age, your hair color, maybe a little bit about yourself and some digitals. That's really the first requirement.
You can send those to anyone, any agency, anywhere in the world. I get emails everyday. Everybody is looking. You can find, whether it's a scout in your hometown, whether it's a big agency in New York. Send them to anybody. If somebody is interested, they're going to call you. Don't be upset if they don't call you, and don't think that you don't have what it takes if they don't respond. They're busy. They get bombarded.
If you're an agency in New York, you probably get maybe 50 to 75 aspiring model requests everyday if you're in a big agency that everybody knows. There's no way they're going to respond to all those people and tell you what you need to do next. They're not going to tell you you need to lose weight, you need to gain weight, you need to wait until you grow. You're not going to get that advice.
You send them to someone like me, and I'm going to tell you those things, because my vested interest is that you're going to get an agent. That's what I do. That's a little bit different, but you, in order to get an agent, you need to be seen by an agent, and the methods of doing that are different. Through an in between person like me, can be the person that makes the introduction, or you can send them directly. There's so many times that a model has sent pictures directly. They've gotten a phone call. They've gotten on a plane to go and meet the agent. The agent signs them, and that's how it all starts.
The effort comes from you, your desire, you want to do it. You can meet the agent if you've got what the agent is looking for. There's not so much PR where they're going to answer you. I think that a lot of people get discouraged. It's like, "Oh I sent my three digital pictures, and they didn't answer me so maybe I'm never going to be a model." That's not necessarily true.
You have to really evaluate. Maybe you're 13 and 5' 7", but maybe you have a size 9 shoe. Your parents are tall, and your older brothers and sisters are tall so maybe you just tried too soon. Maybe you didn't know, and you put on a lot of makeup when you took the pictures, because you wanted to look your best, and you wanted to look pretty. You didn't understand.
Really, more important than anything is at some point you have to take no for an answer because somebody is going to tell you it is the right time. You are the right age. You are the height, and you're just not good at modeling. Okay, that's fine. Before that point comes, you don't always get all the information.
Sometimes you try things and it's not your moment. It's just like a singing contest. There's people that go in singing contests that are singing in bands that they actually get paid to be singers, but they haven't reached the pinnacle point.
They go on a contest like "The Voice" or "American Idol," whatever. It's that moment that things actually start. That's because they're being seen by the right people at the right time. Everything just goes into perfect line for them at that moment.
That's what you want. That's what happens in all kinds of talent, whether it's sports, music, acting, modeling. It's that alignment of everything in place that makes it happen.
As a model, you serve multiple parties - your modeling agency, the client, the photographer and the crew.

When a modeling company that puts you with other agency’s , is it normal for them to charge you for classes ?
im 14, my height is 5'6 and my shoe size is 9, im naturally skinny and i badly want to be a model but im from philippines, cant find agent :(
what are the basics to be a model like grooming what should I groom
Do you believe there is any chance for an older girl to get an agent, when the girls that are typically signed are 14 to 18 years old? Is there still a chance for a 20+ years old ?
Thank you.
Yes there is. But it depends on what type of modelling that you're gonna do. They accept even elderly. And your chance on getting accepted is pretty high as long as you got what they needed, what they wanted to see. Then you should be fine.
Thanks!
HalfNotAGamer you're welcome😊

I really want to be a model, I am 5"8/ size 6 shoe and 14 years old, I have always been passionate for modelling and I don't know what to do or what good modelling agencies are in my area x

I want to be a model. I am 5'11 ,11 stone and 16 years old.will I be good enough,can someone give me some advice?x
Anyone's good enough !!! Of course u could kik me @ rockymay1316 for advice
thank you and yeah i will,i will add you :)
I want be a model but I think I'm too short and I don't know if i'll grow more I'm just 5'5 and a model should be minimal 5'7 but look at Kate Moss she's shorter than I am . Here in my country I'm so much taller than most women and I'm only 15.
I have a friend that grew until she was 23 though and I have only started growing now and I also started doing stretching exercices , running and yoga.
Could I possibly get to 5'7 / 5'8 ???
probably not....
Of course you can Be a model unless your going into Victoria secret because height doesn't matter to all agencies only a few
Cara Delevingne is 5'7 and it's been broadcasted that Kate Moss is 5'4 but the media just doesn't want to reveal her real height so people don't start thinking that anyone can model.Therefore they added some inches to her height like they often do,to some models. littlemisschloexx
Someone will look for your look some agencies want a short girl don't be worried a lot of people will say yes and no just find the right person to say yes
I want to get a model job
Maggie Riley join us
I want a model as well . I been to many agency so far by myself..
It would be so nice to be a model :( I am 5'9 with size 8 shoe and 116 pounds and fit with red hair blue eyes and I am 16 years old, people tell me all the time that I should be a model but my parents don't want me to because it will cost money apparently and I will get scammed, is this true?
Well I don't think the feet would be a problem and I weigh a little bit more then you and height well does not matter and if they really like you you shouldn't have to pay... Explore your options i'm 14 lol... :) but don't be put down by body looks besides they can make you taller with heels and stuff
As a model scout myself, I know each agency costs money. Its a scam if they ask it upfront - they should be taking the money within your jobs (ie, first job they get you and you make $500, they take $250 from it for your fees, then from then on you earn everything you make except for the 10% agent cut or whatever)
We are now accepting model portfolios for the 2014 season

Education first. Don't worry, they accept anyone at any age as long as you have what they needed. Or you can just choose the part time modelling. Depends on you

Find the agency website and submit your photos whether using email or the website itself. As well as the detail that they want. I know this is such a late reply but you're 15 now right? So technically it's not late

Yes
Very rarely
Jillian Michelle I'm a model and trust me i seen it all! if there letting men model as woman......so I don't see why not!
How to get a Modeling Agent-#1, Be anorexic! Girls and boys with visible skeletons are all the rage. #2. Don't eat, and if you do-rabbit food! I know you'll feel like your starving and have no energy, look sickly and weak, but beauty is pain-and a high rate of falling and breaking all your bones. #3. Repeat the above two steps until successful-or dead!
Honestly, models are shallow, selfish and sickly human beings, and their agents are even worse, practically modern day slave drivers and human traffickers.
Definatly not true
Anorexia is a mental illness... Someone can be overweight and be Anorexic...
UsurperDunamis thats cant be true😔
if u hate on models and agents then why waste your "precious "time watching
