Today many companies are looking for females, teenagers and beyond who have a more accessible and "real person" look.  This modeling opportunity is called commercial or advertising. You'll need some lifestyle photos in your portfolio and on your comp cards to work in this field. You also need an outstanding personality that brings out the "actress" in you. Facial expressions and body language are essential in this style of modeling.

How to Get a Model Agency Interview

This is a valid question but each agent is unique. They each have certain ways to be contacted so take a look at their website if possible. Some talent agents like for you to call and some work through email. Some will offer open calls in Oklahoma while others sometimes conduct a model search at the mall or local department store. In other words, contact your OK modeling agency the way they want to be reached. Your points will go up a notch if you do it their way.

What to Wear to a Modeling Agency Interview

No matter if you live in Oklahoma City or Tulsa you'll want to wear the right outfit to your open call. Don't overdress or underdress! Wear something casual like a nice conservative top and jeans, not skin tight to your agency visit.

The modeling agencies want to see your face and your body but don't want to be embarrassed by what you are wearing. For instance, if you show up in see through clothes then the attention is not going to be on your modeling abilities. Use some common sense and your OK agent will remember it.

When You Get a Model Agency Contract

If you get accepted by one of these Oklahoma modeling agencies they should begin to get you some jobs as a model or other related work. Some simple tips to remember are to be on time (early is better), show respect for yourself and your photographers, be pleasant and willing to go the distance to get just the right shot for the photographs in mind. Don't argue with the photographer or the model agent. This is a big no, no!

Have your poses down to a science so you can give them on demand. Get involved with the modeling session and present ideas if you have them but don't be overbearing. After all, they are paying for these pictures.

No matter what your style make sure that you have photos and that the image you project is that of a serious professional.  There are more options out there than you might expect, you just have to be flexible and persistent.
