Whether someone is experienced or just gettingstarted, one can very easily be taken advantage of in theentertainment industry. Along the way, you will have flawshere and there and that's okey. No matter how good youare, you can always do better. The more you learn, thebetter you will become and the more respected you will be.Your personality plays a very big part in modeling also.Remember to relax and you will be fine. The modelingbusiness remains as it has always been, a seething morassof beauty and money, grace and envy, sensuality and lust,glamour and glory beyond measure. Models are alot richerand more independent these days. You need to be preparedto handle the daily challenges and financial rewards ofthe modeling industry.===================================================
=============================================The most important thing you will need to get started inmodeling is pictures. Pictures are the most importanttools of the trade. They are your calling card in theindustry. The primary expense you will have in thisprofession is the cost of photo shoots, comp cards and webplacement. A serious model will eagerly want to make thisinvestment once they are certain modeing is something theywant to do. Pictures are important for many reasons.They're needed for auditions. You will be required toleave pictures and or comp cards with studios and clientsas a reminder to them of how to get in contact with CSMMand or you if they want to book you for an event. Alwaysmake sure that you have several copies of yourpictures/compcards when going for Model Calls, CastingCalls, Open Calls and Auditions. That will be yourresponibility, NOT that of Chicago Skylyne Model Mgmt.
