Has anyone on here ever been scouted?

Has anyone on here ever been scouted?

By a modeling agency, I mean.

>have been scouted, have an agency
>have 3 other modeling agencies cards in my wallet, from being scouted multiple times
>tfw have street style photographers come up to me in public places, asking for my picture

why even live

Where do you live? I live in NYC and have been told that I should model (or people asking me why not when I tell them I don't). I've only been scouted on the street once and I kept walking because I was late to meet a friend. I know that there are more scouts out now because nyfw is next month, what can I do to catch their eyes?

Honestly, had two people scout me in the same day wearing a raf simons aw 17 fit (quite visible, large knitwear, oversized) styled nicely. When people spot you easily you'll of course up your chances

i live in berlin

Why don't you model then?

I do?

i'm flying to paris the 15th

How does one get scouted?

i'm 6'5 and have been scouted 3 times, once for an agency (which i now work with), once by some Welsh luxury clothing brand lol, and lastly by a scout who was doing a Topman campaign shot by Gosha Rubshinsky (can't spell his name)

i think i got scouted because i'm so tall, everybody can see me, always

>How does one get scouted?
jesus christ dudes. look good and be at the right place at the right time

like jesus fuck

>tfw used 2 get scouted as a kid
>parents refuse cause scared of me getting exploited
>tfw ugly girl now and nobody wants me
FML

What are the most effay agencies? Might as well not be a model if you don't do work/aren't signed to anyone significant.

Ask Veeky Forums, I'm sure they have had numerous offers to be in gay porn, no joke

>tfw regularly get told i look like young jared leto & dress really well
>only 1.75 (5'9")
why even live. when people tell me or ask if i've modeled it really triggers me. I really resent that heigh man feelsbad..

tomorrow is another day and midland agency.

Depends on which city you are in.
Don't think so

I've been scouted many times I live in NYC. Near 34th st and union sq and Washington sq park and SOHO u can get scouted

you also have to be tall. at least 6' for men and 5'10" for women

ye i got scouted to go teach art at a top tier school

your parents helped u retard female models are fucked up

thats hot tho

mental illness is /fa

i'm a fucking manlet so i guess i'm fcked

How tall

5'4"

yeh u right

you can still model. just not runway. luka sabbat is a 5'8" 5'9" manlet and he claims to be 5'11 with his afro and still models for mags and stuff. you don't have to be exactly 6'. you just have to look tall. models lie on the bio all the time.

How do you go about this tho? Like I'm regularly told I look like a model. Like have long hair & somewhat androgynous look, so I feel this is attractive to agencies?
I'm only 5'9/5'10 with shoes tho. If you have any advice on how to into modeling for manlets I'm love it

>get contract with IMG
>no jobs
>get contract with smaller ny agency
>loads of jobs

you stupid

you can just go to an agency near you and do that process. or the new way which is to get instagram famous. set up an insta with your real name and post good pics and stuff. then go on the Internet and buy bots to make you seem popular. has to be more than 1k followers because people love seeing that 'k' on profiles. once you get to that it should be smooth sailing. this how the new manlet ugly models/successful people do it now. really shit but that's how it is

bmi is a bit over 17.5 btw so I think this makes me look lankier.

luka just gets jobs because he is who he is

what about sending shit to agencies? Like I know some people have gotten gigs by sending their stats and pictures of themselves
I live in big city in central europe btw

holy shit how do i find trousers on that tone?!

i think i'm in love

>real male models apparently scroll /fa lol

Got scouted in Toronto, signed a 2 year contract. Was offered a $1k shoot before I had even left the agency which I had to decline because it fell on an exam day. I have 4 photoshoots this weekend, I'm very excited. Massive confidence boost, any time I tell a qt-art-type I see their eyes light up. Hopefully I can make a lot of money off of this because I don't want to work a real job until I'm at least 25, 20 now.

they do? one who models for SLP regularly posted, not sure if he's still around tho

stats? you should post face im curious

Also @smokeweedlol, models for gosha rubchinskiy, used to post here but like many of the great icons of Veeky Forums the plebery of the common user has likely scared him off.

I would like to but I feel like I'm going to get a lot of work in the future and I don't want to compromise my professional image by associating my look/personality with this image board.

I am 6'1" blue eyes white brown fine hair with a 3 buzzcut/fade. 28/29 waist 38 shoulders. I have a very Anglo face, born in bongland. People tell me I look very 'European'.

I'm 5'5 am I fucked
Ian Connor was 5'5 so I guess not but I look pretty short

How much is your rent?
Do u live with roomies?
How long is the walk to the nearest by the Alice pizza place?
Im trying to move to soho

of course youre fucked. agencies don't want manlets.

you can do magazine shoots, but getting an agency is not going to be easy

Magazine shots are fine tho
I wouldn't want it to be a full time job
Also do acne scars matter? I heard they can edit those out

how to into magazine shots?

This photo is such an inspiration to me especially the guy in the back. So much /mu/ and Veeky Forums. JUST the kind of thing i want people to see

If you are 6'2" what are some stuff you can do to make yourself look more modelesque?

BAHAHAHAHA
if you have to ask darling it isn't happening

no interest in being a model but whats wrong with wanting to improve yourself?

>look more modelesque

do you mean "look better"?
lose weight, do cardio, do heroin

i dont know. i have an agency. desu i hate shoots, i like shows

sounds like easy money
reality is incredibly boring, pretentious shit

you get to meet other models
and the only interesting thing about them is.. that they're models
when there's an actually good casting everyone and their dog shows up and you get to wait
and wait

modeling is basically waiting ft. people who take lots of selfies

>50 posts
>no mention of Trunks


RIP Veeky Forums

i'm still around, i posted this

me but no buzzcut and 6'2 australian

>tfw milsurp/vintage retard
>50% of the time being made fun of and 50% i'm being complimented on doing my own thing and grills telling me they dig the camo style

please explain

plebs

So just hang around Union Square/Soho? I know since fashion week is coming up more scouts are gonna be on the streets.

A fairly popular photographer in NYC offered to take some pics of me for free, should I do it? Will it help me feel more comfortable in front of a camera?

how are you doing mate, maybe odd but were you in london on nye?

you walking paris?

Anyone have any fashion week experience?

i'm fine, how are you?
i live in london, so i'm always here, i was in bethnal green during nye, where were you? dont plan on going to paris, have too much uni work but my agency expect a direct booking with lanvin so maybe i will, i won't go unless they pay though

yes, what do you want to know? also any particular city? they vary

New York. How does it work? Whats the audition process like? What's the pay?

i haven't done new york fashion week, no point telling you the stories i've heard as they'll be no better than anything else posted here, they're mostly the same ie your agency emails you shit loads of locations of places usually doing open castings, if you've done stuff before you'll probably get a few requests which are agencies asking to see you personally, though this doesn't increase chances of you actually making the show lol, i asked about which city because the geography makes the experience different, ie: paris is much smaller and you can walk a lot of it in the summer, so it's like there's hundreds of male models walking to the same places in the summer, kind of funny, you bump into your friends alot, walk with them, stop and eat with them so if you have friends which you like talking to it's great, some people take it so seriously though and just rush and queue all day desperate to get a show lol, pay is usually no more than 1000 euros, depends where the show is, pounds used to be better than euro, but sometimes big labels like to take brand new guys and they'll get good money upwards of 1000 euros, i think i got 1600 for my first ysl show, but i got thrown under the bus by my agency and some random french agency i wasn't signed to so lost 50%, so what you agree to be paid, and what you receive are two different things, sometimes you'll agree to be paid less than 1000 and get cut 25 or 50% in which case the money is less fabulous than you think in places like paris where you prostitute your wallet

tfw mom and gf say you are pretty but probably just to comfort you

pretty good man

ok cool, was in camden and saw a dude who looked like you but was buzzed so may have just been due to that.

i am going to paris myself, have a week off uni so will be extending my stay. any tips on cool shit to do in paris?

Don't worry, the average manlet heights that are accepted here are quite laughable. If you're not under 5'6" than you are alright m8ty.

I'm not signed to any agency so currently, and like some other anons in this thread, I'm hoping to be picked up off the street.

remember, no means no.

>tfw he asked me if I wanted to pose nude

yeah, i was capping a point on 2-fort and this cunt comes outta nowehere with a scatter gun and 1 hit crits me.

you just have to make up stories on Veeky Forums, and you'll be scouted in like an hour

bump

>tfw have thinspo body and might be model tier face
>uneven face skin tone

fml
I don't even need the money, it just sounds fun to be a little more involved in the industry

pics or doesn't happen.

lots of cool things to do in paris, clubbing isn't one of them, the city is expensive as fuck if you've been before so try be smart, there's no real night life so just enjoy the city, get into architecture and history and you'll enjoy the small things in the city, things on every avenue

ok i would recommend to you as i have done pretty much everyone who has told me theyre interested, go apply to an agency local to you, take some pics of yourself against a white wall from the front and two sides, and shoot them off and see what happens, a few people i know have been picked up that way

cheers mate, haven't been to paris before so im pretty stoked

this guy speaks the truth
magazine shoots don't pay
no one wants to pay you
youll pay photogs in the beginning to build your book
fun for a few years but don't expect a career

In London two guys in suits were walking near me and I heard one them ask "you wanna be a model?" I was actually walking inbetween them and a handsome surfer looking guy

Man I fucking love trunks and I bought some dope shit from him at good prices. Canadian cucks must have gotten to him RIP

Did they tailor your pants for the runway at SLP? Do you feel like they modified the clothing at all or was it off the shelf

they modified my jeans because i'm a 36" inseam so they dont make jeans in my length normally, i still have them. they modified a few things, i wore a cape and they had it attached to the suit jacket i was wearing underneath, but they also have the clothes in any size they want, so they can either get my exact size or tailor it, whichever is easiest
