Can you Just Walk into a Modeling Agency?

Leave a comment

Only if you are crazy! Here’s the truth about what modeling agents want to see!

Can you just walk into a modeling agency? That is a question so many beginner models have when trying to get scouted. Even though the internet is filled with tips and tutorials on how to become a model, or what modeling agents scout and look for, very few talent are actually signed by an agency and even fewer really even know what the modeling industry entails.

In fact, less than 5% of working models are signed with an exclusive agency. So with that said, walking into an agency is not your only option.

To start off and answer the main question, if walking into an agency as a model is acceptable: No, it is never acceptable to walk into a modeling agency unannounced or without an appointment. In fact, it can actually hurt your your chances of getting signed.

Modeling in New York: CAsting Red Flag!

Leave a comment

When becoming a model in New York, the first step besides getting your marketing in order, is making sure you find the castings to apply to. The more exposure, the better!

Upcoming models need to always look out for common red flags when it comes to finding casting calls.

A common red flag is castings that have common spelling errors. Not only are they not professional, it could be someone impersonating an actual brand.











Another common red flag is a casting call that requires you to advance them money. An example is a casting client “booking you for a job” but telling you to mail them a check or money order for a shoot. This is NOT legit! A real gig will never ask you to send them a money before you complete the project!





Always do your homework when it comes to working with a casting call client. A simple google search with the email address can come up with any complaints or related casting calls. For more articles, check out the Latitude Talent Blog!
