I’ll tell you the truth behind acting and modeling, keep reading to find out. Acting modeling is a very glamorous industry, but it can be ruthless at times.

Acting and modeling are two different things, so you should focus on one rather than both. Acting and modeling have different things that you need to know about in each of the industries.

Models Wanted. See the list here.

A model should have clear skin and a nice bone structure and symmetrical face. Those simple things could get you far in the modeling world. It depends on if you’re doing cat walk modeling or plus size modeling on what your figure should be as a model.

As an actor, you should always strive to improve yourself and take acting classes or voice lessons. Your body language and voice are the first things that casting directors will notice about you when you step in that audition room.

You and your agent should have your headshot picture available along with your resume at these auditions, regardless if you are a model or actor/actress. Keep these photos in your portfolio and easily accessible.

Hiring an agent will be a good thing because they don’t get money from you until they find you a job and then they take around ten percent. I would be cautious about hiring a talent manager though. You can have the agent scout for jobs while you look online using the link above.

One thing to mention is that you will be criticized and let down a lot so develop that thick skin now. Don’t take any of that criticism personally or it will really wear at your confidence.
