Industry Tips

MODELING

Here's some helpful tips from your BBB on Modeling:

If you are considering modeling as a profession, it's important to know the difference between employment agencies and modeling managers. The responsibility of an employment agency is to match an employer with an appropriate candidate for an available job. The agency's relation with both employer and employee terminates when the job has been filled. Managers, on the other hand, maintain an ongoing relationship with their clients who are models. They help direct all facets of the model's career from start to finish. Should you consider responding to a newspaper, television or radio advertisement seeking prospective models, check out the company first with BBB. If you are still interested, call the company and make an appointment for an interview. Be cautious about any requests for an advance registration or consultation fee, and high pressure sales tactics. Ask the company what specific assignments that you would be used for and be cautious if the company avoids the question or cannot answer it to your satisfaction. Never leave a deposit and ask for a copy of the contract and review it thoroughly with your attorney before you sign it. If you don't have or know a reputable attorney, the Virginia Lawyer Referral Service may be able to help you. Their telephone number is 800-552-7977. Note that all oral representations made by the company should be incorporated into the contract itself. Check the duration of the contract, and ask whether you will be able to work for other agencies during the duration of your contract.
