Indeed, the big dream has come true and we are opening our first office in Los Angeles! On January 12th we will start, the official start and probably also the prelude for a lot of work. With CM Models, we have built up a strong agency over the last few years that is popular with our clients. With international jobs, in Europe and America. If you have already become from Los Angeles, but have not had an agency invitation yet, second chance? And also if you have not had any contact with our agency so far, it is the opportunity to apply for a job in our model agency.

Here are some first tips for your model application in Los Angeles and the process.

Model Requirements in Los Angeles

For models there are many requirements, e.g. in height, weight, as well as in the resulting proportions. Also in Los Angeles there are strict measurements when it comes to international fashion customers, commercials and fashion shows. Of course there are always exceptions, the spirit of the times is changing the fashion world, the media but also advertising. What we as a model agency, also our model scouts pay special attention to, are e.g. small, extra highlights like freckles or tooth gaps. So there is no perfect model, not even in LA. But as a model you come very close to the ideal of beauty. As described above, it is not possible to summarize it all in one place, e.g. by giving a few guidelines.

For female models the ideal case is

• Body height women 174 to 180 cm
• Beautiful and / or striking face >/li>
• Slim proportions

For Male Models is the ideal case:

• Body height from 184 to about 192 cm
• Slim and athletic proportions
• Muscle build-up must not be too extreme
• Cutie or striking

As described, if you really want to become a model, you should try it and just send an application. Then you will see if the model scout will get back to you or if you will not get any feedback. If you want to apply with us, you will find some important information right away! Before we start, let's have a short look at the typical way to a model contract. How do you become tomorrow? How do you get discovered as a model?

Becoming a model in LA: 3 ways to a model contract

There are 3 ways to become a model.

1. Scouting on the road or instagram
2. Online application with Polaroids
3. Open Model Agency Casting >/li>

Let's have a look at the 3 ways, their advantages and disadvantages, in detail.

Scouting on the road or instagram

The most direct and immediate way to a new contract in Los Angeles is to be discovered by one of the model agency Scouts.

The very first step is a visit to our agency, here you will meet our model bookers and we will get to know you. Here it is no longer "only" primarily about height, weight, proportions, but about motivation and sympathy. This is the fastest way of all, that's why it is described quickly.

You have been written to on Instagram?

important! Our modeling agency writes to us only and exclusively through the official Instagram channel @cocaine.models

If you have been contacted by another Instagram account, have a fake. Protect the others and report these channels!

Online application with Polaroids

The best way for you is to apply online. Here you can check quickly, free of charge and without obligation whether your type is currently being sought in our agency portfolio.

The online application is completed in a few seconds, all you need are a few contact details and Polaroids. What this is, you can read here!

Additionally you only need to send us a few initial data and information. The registration is very easy, there is a ready-made application form. You only have to fill in a few details, e.g. your name, your place of residence, your contact details such as phone and e-mail address and your height. In addition you send two photos. Ideally a portrait and a full body photo. A good description of how you take your photos can be found in the link above.

Open Model Agency Casting

Way number 3, to become a model, are open agency castings, which are offered from time to time. E.g. in the context of the Fashion Week. With us in Los Angeles you will get more frequent model casting dates in the near future.

How does an open model casting actually work? Basically, the agency wants to get to know as many people as possible in a short time. Getting to know someone live is still something different than judging someone by photos or videos. Such open model castings are relatively complex for model agencies to organize. You need a location, the right and important people, as well as bookers and scouts must have time. Nevertheless, it is worth to organize such live castings, because as described above, it is called to know the people even better!

Queue - at open castings there is often a bigger queue if 50 or 100 models are there at the same time. It is best to relax, find a comfortable place and distract yourself with your smartphone. Waiting times and patience are definitely part of a model's job.
