To be a model you must be prepared to travel, even on days you may have class or to work!. Print, editorial, commercial models do not need to be tall!. Runway models need to be over 5'6!. What you need to do is get a headshot done and a body shot, or even get a comp card!. A comp card is a card with different looks!. That is if you get a photoshoot done by a photographer!. This can cost you a couple hundred!. Then send them out to agencys!. Make sure you send them out to real legit agency!. You can find a list on sag!.org!. Do not fall for any where asking you for a desposit or barbizon, or casablancas!. Models do not need classes, actors do!. Skinny is what they like so your ok!. You can email me for more questions!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Have a friend or professional take some photos of yourself (head smiling, head no smiling, full body w/ clothes, swimsuit)!. Then look up agencies online and submit your photos or go to an open call!. If you don't want or can' get an agent, then go to craigslist!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

You cant just start modeling to make some "extra cash on the side" Modeling takes commitment!. Many years of hard work!. The first thing you need to do is have head shots done and start submitting to local agents !.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Get some "professional" (I can not emphasize the "professional" part enough) headshots done for your portfolio, then start submitting them to local modeling agencies!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
