Regarding Teenagers, Females and Males Modeling in North Carolina

Even though it is one of the petite states (pardon the pun) North Carolina presents some pretty good opportunities for teenagers ( male and female), preteens and even children interested in pursuing model careers. You'll find jobs from posing for local photographers to work for women modeling in swimsuits for catalog, high fashion, runway or glamour.

 

Get a Start in the Fashion World

If you have a preteen or a teen that seems to have the aptitude for modeling or it is just something that he or she has shown interest in then it pays to do some research on the topic. 

Before you find a modeling agency there are some requirements that you should know about no matter if you are in North Carolina or any other part of the world.  First and foremost it is important to have pictures taken, both full body and head shots, and compile a portfolio. 

 

These images will be the first thing that an agency will look at when deciding whether or not to take on your child as a client. It is often best to begin modeling for catalogs.  This can be the easiest entry into the fashion world and can also be the segway to bigger things.

 

Learn to Accept "NO" 

When shopping around for an appropriate agency or manager it is important for teenagers to understand that rejection is a part of the business and not to be discouraged.  Study your local market and go to open-calls whenever possible. 

Whether male of female it is key to be comfortable during poses for photographers and this often happens over time.  Modeling can be an excellent way to earn money for college or it can be just the start of bigger and better things.

Taking your first step in entertainment suggests that you take a good look at yourself in the mirror before getting started in a career in the performing arts. Are you tall? Are you plus size? Do you have a figure for fashion or fitness?

 

These are just a few questions to ask so here are some Q&A about how to be a model in North Carolina.

 

Requirements for Teen Models

How tall do I need to be to be a model? A common question. Here are some tips. The teenagers market is one of the most popular modeling genres. Most start super young somewhere between the ages of 13 to 15 years old. For runway or fashion you need to be tall and slim with a height between 5'9" and 5'11" with a waist of about 22 to 24 inches. Your other body proportions should also reflect these attributes.

 

If you plan to be a high fashion teenage model and work for the top of the list agents like IMG Modeling, Ford Management or Elite, who represents Tyra Banks, Cindy Crawford and many other supermodels with the look, you'll need to meet the requirements listed above along with perfect teeth, great hair with little or no split ends and a flawless complexion.

In other words, even without wearing makeup, you need to be a raving beauty with all that it takes just like you see on America's Next Top Model and those gracing the cover of magazines such as Seventeen or Vogue.

 

Career for Glamour Models

These models are hard bodies with lots of curves. They have beautiful faces along with a sexy body to match with measurements around 34-B bra size, 22 to 24" waistline and 32 to 34 inch hips. They are experts at giving sensual looks with their eyes and doing sultry poses for photographers.

These NC glamour models have what it takes and this is your competition for work such as posing for Victoria's Secret catalogs or doing artistic, implied or figure work. Prepare to be bold and show some or all your skin if you endeavor in this type modeling category.

 

Petite and Plus Size

There is work available for these categories as well. Some girls and guys go into catalog, some into commercial which is discussed below.

 

Commercial and Promotional Modeling

Even in towns like Charlotte, Gastonia or Raleigh, there are talent agencies who represent teens through mature senior models in male or female commercial model genres. You don't necessarily need to be tall or a certain age or body type to become this type of model. You do need an outgoing personality and a good handle on giving facial expressions, using body language in poses, etc.

Promotional models are the young women and men you see at trade shows such as Lowe's Motor Speedway giving out brochures or working in booths, taking pictures with fans with their favorite race car etc.

 

Children's Modeling Agencies

If you have a child or toddler who is outgoing and not shy around the photographer's camera you may have a candidate for children in modeling. Portfolios need to be lifestyle and natural with photos such as chocolate on the face, playing on the slide, etc. Cute babies can sometimes become models.

 

Finding Photographers and Creating a Portfolio

Your photographer should be tremendous help in building your portfolio to show these agents. Make sure the person you select has experience with models, knows how to get the best pictures for your goals, and can give you a release for reprint rights on your photos. You'll need to make copies for prints, a cd, online and maybe a comp card with pics and information for talent agents.

 

Portfolio Requirements

Your portfolio should include a variety of photos from full length to headshots with one outdoor in natural light with little or no makeup so the agency can see the real you. They also want to see your true figure so do a pose or two in swimsuits, tight fitting sweaters and jeans, etc.

 

Make sure your portfolio photographs stay up to date, especially if you are in the category for teenagers or into childrens catalog or fashion modeling.

 

How to Put Together a Good Portfolio

Do many poses for your portfolio model shoot, angles and outfits and keep your photos clean and without background clutter. The agency representatives do not want to pick you out of a busy background. Show a super portfolio with only your very best images and your chances for a career increase.

 

How Many Photos Go Into a Portfolio?

Have a good variety but, as stated above, only show your very best. A portfolio normally consist of somewhere between 8 to 20 shots size 9x12 or 8x10 if money is an issue. Build your modeling portfolio slowly by working with several photographers. Depending upon the type jobs you are looking for include some fashion, headshots, lifestyle, fitness, etc. Each photographer will see you differently and this will insure a killer book for agencies and other interested clients to view.

 

So, no matter what type modeling you plan to do, you can find a North Carolina model agency to help you reach your goals, and your dreams of being at the top of the list. Good luck!

 

Finding Your North Carolina Agent

It might take a little imagination and especially staying positive even through rejection but modeling agencies in North Carolina are doing a search right now for models fitting your description.
