If you want to become a model in 2013, you’re probably
wondering how to start approaching modelling agencies. Neon Models has links
with many major modelling agencies and many years’ experience in helping new
models get their foot in the door.
Select your modelling agency carefully
There are many different types of models and many different
types of agencies. Some large agencies deal with many different types of
models, but others are very specialist and niche. You need to check carefully
that the agency deals with the kind of modelling you want to do, otherwise
you’ll be wasting your time and you risk getting a black mark against your name
for wasting their time.
Read the guidelines
Obviously, this seems obvious, but if people did regularly
and reliably read the guidelines, we wouldn’t have to put this as an important
point. Some people seem to think they can do things their way and the agency
will take the time to deal with whatever they send in whatever format, and if
it’s not right, contact them to give them feedback and guidance.
Wrong. The agency does not waste time on people who can’t
even be bothered to read their guidelines. If your application deviates from
their guidelines in any way, your pictures will go straight in the bin. No
consideration, no phone call. You will not hear from them.
Persevere
If you want to make it as a model, you have to be prepared to face rejection and bounce back. Just because one agency doesn’t like you, doesn’t mean you don’t have a chance. You just need to find the right scout, who is into your kind of look. The likelihood that you will be snapped up by the first agency you approach is very slim.
