Q: Hi! My name is Becky, and I am 15. This weird thing happened to me. I was in a store shopping and a sales clerk commented on my looks and asked me if I ever thought of modeling. The thought never really crossed my mind until now. How can I get into something like this? How should I prepare? Who should I contact?
A: First of all, you need to get a good agent. A good agent will be responsible for providing bookings. They will also help you through your career, giving you advice on hair and makeup. There are many ways you can try to get an agent. First of all, modeling agencies have something called an "open call" in which they welcome people to come in to their agency that are interested in modeling. They suggest dressing casually in form-hugging clothing and keeping the makeup to a minimum. Also, there is a list of top agencies if you click here. Another thing I would recommend is visiting www.modelsandtalent.com, a website in which model scouts browse through. You can also post your electronic profile so agents can check you out. Good luck! :)
