Styles and looks change in popularity and models also have their season.<BR/><BR/>The problem today is that the consumer is demanding a more real image on which to focus. The very strict rules and grooming for the 50's through the 80's no longer applies. People now want someone that looks real and projects an inner sexuality. <BR/><BR/>Again, young models have to consider where they will best serve the industry. This is not always an easy decision to make and one has to completely let go of their ego and think in terms of dollars and cents. <BR/><BR/>Some people are just striking, atlthough they may not be considered conventionally pretty. Some people look great on film. Others have unusual and magnificent bodies. Some models look like other models that have been popular. <BR/><BR/>It is all a crap shoot and at every casting the agency will choose someone that best exemplifies the essence of the product being sold. This is now a group decision and everyone on the the "committee" has an opinion. <BR/>As a model it is your job to decide who will be your client base and then you have to focus on getting yourself seen by the artists that will love and appreciate your look. <BR/><BR/>Not every agency is for everyone. Not every photograopher or stylist are for everyone. But because we live in a global society, there is somebody out there that will love and appreciate you simply because you are. <BR/><BR/>It is your job to find and cultivate these clients.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
