How does one get started in modeling? There is no one way for a person to get started. Different models have reached success through different routes.

Modeling?
• Getting Started
• How does one get started in modeling? There is
no one way for a person to get started. Different
models have reached success through different
routes. If one wants to become a doctor there is a
set course of schooling, experience and testing,
but for modeling there is no clear path. We do
know of some of the ways models have gotten
started in the past. This is by no means an
exhaustive list but it might help in your efforts to
launch a career in modeling.

2. Front Door - Go to the Source
• The bulk of the work in modeling is booked through
Modeling Agencies. So literally go to the front door of
the modeling agency. This is the number one way for a
wannabe to start. You have to do some research to find
where the modeling agency door is, locally or other big
city, and those they are no PRIMODELS SCAM. You can
approach a primodels agency through their open call,
schedule an interview or by submitting a cover letter
and photographs. Give them a call or email them and
ask how they want new talent to contact them. There
is no reason to try another way of getting started until
you have been turned down at the front door.

3. Know Someone
• Some models get started because they have an in. You
hear stories of someone who has a friend who models
and goes to a photo shoot with them and is then
discovered by the photographer. Some might have an
aunt who modeled or runs an agency and helps to get
them started. Others might work in a related field and
one day finds them not working beside the camera but
in front of it. In smaller markets child models are most
often used because they are an art
director's, buyer's, or photographer's kid. Knowing
someone in the business can help a lot in getting a
career in modeling started.

4. The Fates
• Modeling agencies are in fact constantly looking for new talent. This is
very true in fashion modeling. This segment of modeling is composed
mostly of young models. By the time a model is thirty their career is over.
There is always a need to find the next generation of models. Because of
this need for new talent, folks involved with modeling agencies are looking
for new talent. This can be modeling agencies' personnel (owner, booker),
photographers, art directors, and of course the "model scouts." Some
agencies are in fact large enough to employ an individual who is just out
looking for that next generation of new talent or to fill new needs of a
client. Unfortunately, the term "model scout" is being used more often by
rip off organizations, web space salesmen and scoundrels, so one is
correct in being suspicious of anyone calling them selves a model scout.
But there are numerous stories of models being discovered at the mall, on
the beach, or other public place. So if you hope to start your career in
modeling by waiting for the fates to smile on you, plan on spending a lot
of time hanging in out in public places.

5. Hard work
• Some models do work their way into modeling (I have also heard from
models that modeling is hard work and all models work their way into the
business). These models track down tests shoots and put together their
comp cards and portfolios. They study and practice being a model by
working on their expressions, posing, runway walking, hair styling, make
up, working in front of a camera, and how the business works. These
models may work freelance or have nonexclusive contracts with a number
of modeling agencies. In smaller regional markets, where agencies do not
have the resources to develop new talent, an agency might not work with
a model until they have developed their skills and marketing materials. If
you enjoy the process of modeling and doing good work, then all of the
time and expense that go into this process can be its own reward. If you
have to make a living at modeling, you should be sure you meet the basic
physical and aptitude requirement of the type of modeling you want to
become before you invest your time and money into this process. If you
want to be a high fashion model and do not have the size or a look, no
amount of hard work will make you a career model.
