Introduction to Modeling

If you want to be a top fashion model, it only happens in New York. Fashion modeling does not take place in small town America. The designers are not there, the fashion magazines are not there, and the show rooms are not there. The really BIG FASHION happens in New York and they play by their own rules. If they find you and you have the look they want for that season, then they have the photographers, make-up artists, hair stylists, clothing stylists, art directors, and budgets to make it work. What I am about to say means very little to the fashion elite. But if you are trying to get into modeling or you're in a minor fashion market doing catalog work, character work, product support work, or other secondary work, then this information holds true.The modeling industry is quite diverse. However, the part that most people have seen glamorized is the life of the fashion Supermodel. For some, the idea of a jet-set life style is very appealing but, let me tell you, you stand a better chance of winning the power ball lottery then becoming one of the dozen or so Supermodels. Which points to a harsh reality of modeling - most people who try to make a living as a model will fail. Fortunately, for many, just trying to make it is personally rewarding. You will never know if you might have what it takes if you never try.
The following information may give you some ideas of what it takes to be a model and how to get started. This information not only looks at fashion modeling but, also, other types of modeling. The material covers some of the basics. Only through proper training and hard work, however, can you become a professional model. I hope you will use this as a starting point to decide if modeling is right for you and may it give you some direction towards starting a career.

HOW TO BECOME A MODEL
Ten Hints For Wannabes
Hard Work:
Glamour is very alluring. But there is a lot of hard work involved behind the scenes. Models rarely breeze effortlessly into the spotlight. You need a lot of patience and tenacity. And a sense of humour always helps. Do you have it in you? That's something you need to know before you jump into the fray.
Dealing with people
You will need to interact with ad agencies, model co-ordinators, cameramen, and organisers. You need to be business savvy. Judge if you are getting paid sufficiently or are you expecting too much? Use your common sense. Are you being exploited or is it a fair deal? Learn how to manage without letting it ruffle your feathers.
Your Portfolio
Every model needs one. A portfolio is a book or an album of your pictures that shows your versatility. Use a professional photographer. Go through his work. If it impresses you, use him for your portfolio. The pictures can be a mix of black and white and coloured shots. Variety is important. Restricting the styles to any one-fashion era will limit your options. About eight to ten pictures are sufficient to start with.DoingYourRounds
Visit various ad agencies and model co-ordinators with your
Use Judgement
Don't sign up with the first agent. Shop around and judge the worth of each deal. Be prepared for rejects. But remember tenacity is what you need. Try again elsewhere. Keep trying.

Grab Opportunities
You've got big dreams. But it's little drops of water that make a mighty ocean. So accept a deal even if it is a small one. You'll get a bit of visibility and money. Besides it's a terrific way of building up your experience and portfolio. Remember that a reputation for refusing assignments will work against you.Independence
Once your career is underway, you may travel for various shoots or even move to a bigger city. You must look after yourself totally. You need independence and the ability to combat loneliness. Cultivate hobbies that will keep you occupied. Books are ideal travelling companions. There are long hours between shoots. Boredom or impatience will show on camera. Keep your cool.
Physical Fitness
Long hours in studios and outdoor locations call for physical stamina. Eat sensibly and drink lots of fluid. Visit a gym regularly. It helps you keep you body in prime form too. Make sure you get adequate sleep. Maintain a regular beauty regimen.
Level Head
The world of glamour is an enticing one. There will be plenty of opportunities for partying, drinking smoking and maybe even doing drugs. Have a firm head on your shoulders. Too much of high living will tell on your career. Besides, agents don't like working with people who have a reputation for such excesses.Know Your Industry
Learn all you can about the fashion world. Use this information to your advantage. Know which agencies do better work, which cameraman can bring out the best in you, how to catwalk, pose, emote and what is best avoided. Learn to value your contacts and your friends. Public relations play a large part in this career.
