What should you wear and what should you
bring?
Dress on trend,
with fitted clothing. Keep it simple and clean. Agencies want to see your body
proportions. Keep the makeup minimal, so they can see your natural features. It is important to be prepared because you
may never know when clients are at the agency. You are there to impress and
show your future agent how you would look if they submitted you for a major
role.
Agencies want
you to bring a digital and hard copy of your headshot, in addition to a resume.
Discuss your marketability, uniqueness and how passionate you are
about your career.
Talk about your future goals and dreams. Talk
about something that says you’re a winner and love what you do. They need to
see your personality, persistence, enthusiasm and passion.
Questions you should ask the talent
agency?
Here are some
questions to be asking:
What is the best
way to contact you?
How does the agent keep clients
informed about their activities on client’s behalf?
Is this exclusive or not exclusive?
What kinds of clients do you work
with and do you think my look fits the client’s needs?
Do you have any suggestions for my
photos? Should I shoot again?
Lastly.
“Keep in mind the more marketable your
photos are, the more work an agent can get you.” Your agent’s feedback is
priceless.
