Modeling is more than a pretty face. It’s to simulate a consumer who represents the brand. To put it simply, a company hires a model to advertise their product or service. Advertising comes in many forms. When people think of modeling, many assume that you have to be very tall and very thin. While that is the norm for editorial models, who frequently work on runway shows and high end fashion lines, many models are actually commercial talent. Commercial talent is everything except editorial modeling and that represents over 90% of the models you see on TV and print today. There is a huge push for alternative models, which is a model with a unique look or feature.

While landing a modeling agency can provide management and exposure to major casting calls, models do not need a modeling agency to become successful. There are many platforms online that allow talent to access free casting calls as well as services such as Latitude Talent studios that connects talent with the resources and opportunities to get started. Latitude is not an agency and we do not find or promise work. We can however promise to make finding the opportunities to start easy. To become a model, upload your photograph here.
