Hi there! I'm a new entry in MM :-)
Hello everybody! Nice to meet you, I'm new here and unexperienced on fashion world. I would like to start modelling job, I live in London and I had already done my photo book so, please, anyone know model's agency to apply? Thank you for any advice! Apr 12 15 02:03 pm Link Welcome to the Mayhem Unfortunately there are no legitimate agencies that sign models shorter than 5'8' or so. Which are model agencies accepts petite? Short, Very Curvy Model.. What Agencies Accept me? However all is not lost, you can still model as a freelance. Good ways to network are: Post an availability notice letting people know that you are available (under the casting/travel tab). This is for when you want to charge money. You can offer trade as well. Search for Casting Calls in your area based on criteria you select. Post a Casting Call letting people know about an idea you have and want to put into a work of art. This is for when you are willing to pay other people. You can offer trade as well. Search or Post Casting Calls and Travel/Availability Notices Official Casting Call Rules - Read Find the talent and resources you need on Model Mayhem Browse for photographers in your area and leave comments on images you like, send a friend request or message. Start a list of photographer's photos that you think are top notch for photographers in your area. This can become something of a Rolodex. Make sure that you select the Advanced Options and select an appropriate Logged in within:. I typically use 30 days, but you may want people who respond faster. Otherwise you will get photographers who haven't logged in in over a year. There are a lot of inactive accounts. Make an announcemnet. Look on the front page for members offering comments for comments, and comment on their photos. Also make an announcement yourself. Post a bulletin by going to My stuff > bulletins. Friends can see the bulletins you post. Be active in the forums, but avoid trolls who start threads just to watch the ensuing flame war. Avoid threads that beat the over GWC's, flakes, escorts, ..., etc. Use the forum search to look for posts on your topic. Make positive constructive comments. Whenever you get published, add some new photos, or accomplish anything in general, post an announcement in the Accomplishments, Achievements and High Fives forum. When people see your forum post the first thing they see is your avatar. It has to be interesting enough for them to want to click on it and look at your portfolio. Share your other accounts on the Social Media User Name Sharing Thread. Rinse and repeat. Good luck in your search!
