Become a Model: Tips & Advise

Modeling is a very large industry. Supermodels, or highly successful models, only represent a tiny fraction of models and modeling jobs although they do attract the most attention and publicity. Many women dream of becoming a successful top model but like other creative fields such as acting and singing, the competition for model places is fierce and disappointments are many.

Fortunately, the modeling world is vast and there are opportunities for everyone regardless of age, sex,, weight, height, ethnicity or skill set. Modeling jobs cover a variety of fields including fashion, art, glamour, print, web, children, family and the list goes on. Most magazines, books, television commercials and other media related fields all require models based on their own particular needs. However becoming a model is not an easy task based on looks, and looks alone. To become a successful model will require a positive attitude, the ability to accept rejection, commitment, determination, hard work and a good working relationship with their model agency.

Beginners should have their photos up on a portfolio hosting site for models. These websites are generally free to join and upload photos and can get you a lot of exposure. I would recommend having memberships and profiles at ALL 3 of the following websites:

Miss Online
Model Mayhem
One Model Place

The first two (Miss Online and Model Mayhem) are totally free. The third is mostly free but you do get constant messages to upgrade to the “gold membership” (which I don’t think is worth the money).

Miss Online doesnt censor profile pages for content. You can add links to your other modeling profiles as well as your myspace page, etc. I’d use Miss Online as the profile link to send prospective agents because it saves alot of time typing in different websites. They go to the Miss Online profile and can link to your others. Simple.

Good Luck!
