Have you ever dreamed of becoming a model, seeing your face on a huge advertising stand in the city center, arousing the admiration of men and the envy of friends? To be a model means to be beautiful, stylish, elegant. Models can try on different looks, meet celebrities, go to shoot in exotic locations. What do you need to do to get into the model? Actually, not that much.
Instructions
Step 1
Make a great portfolio. Take the time to find a good photographer. You should not rely on a girlfriend who "fakes cool". If you intend to become a professional fashion model, then your portfolio must be perfect. After all, this is what potential employers are primarily concerned about. Therefore, you do not need to spare money for high-quality photography by a professional photographer.
Step 2
Take a course or model school. Studying in such a school does not guarantee a high-paying job in the best modeling agencies in the world. But there they will teach you how to present yourself correctly, provide you with the first experience in filming, introduce you to the “kitchen” of the work of a photo model.
Step 3
Send your details to as many modeling agencies as possible. Participate in competitions and castings, be active. Visit places where photographers and potential employers can spot you: fashion shows, beauty contests, presentations and exhibitions.
Step 4
Forget dieting. These are the mannequins starving to bring themselves to the right size. And for photo models, the main thing is not height or thinness. You must have a striking appearance, your face must be attractive, unusual, memorable. It doesn't matter if the age is no longer school, and the height is below the notorious 175 cm. Many popular glossy publications are happy to publish photographs of models that are very far from generally accepted standards. Beauty can be different.
Step 5
Take care of yourself. Fashion models pay much more attention to their body and face than salespeople or salespeople. And this is understandable, because appearance is the main working tool of the model. The skin should be radiant, the hair should be shiny and healthy, the hands should be well-groomed and the teeth should be white. These little things, which can be invisible individually, all together give a stunning effect.
Step 6
Learn to anticipate what agents, photographers and stylists want from you. Be a kind of psychologist. After all, a model is a tool in the hands of professionals. The better tool you are, the brighter and more interesting your modeling career will be.
