  • Hi, im a danish girl, 16 years old, 1,78 high and normal body, long brown flat hair and i really want to be a elite! i have already sent an mail, and i will send another, when i got my measures! :D I know many women who only talks good about you!

  • @natasaurousrawrr i wish it could be like that too im 5'6 1/4 and im 15 but since i just started puberty my doctor said i will keep growing i hate that they wouldnt even consider you if you can pull out 4 more inches then yeah but if not im sorry 5'7 is the shortest runway model i have seen

  • I'm 16 but I'm 5'5 -.-

    i really want this

    Do you think they'd accept me?

  • @natasaurousrawrr hi...honestly ...anyone under 5'7 wont have a chance AT ALL...:( but there is still hope because at 14 i was 5'6..and im 15 now and 5'8...believe it or not..yoga adds a few inches to you because its all about straightning your spinal cord i did it for about a year and im 2 inches taller..ima keep doin it..oh..and eat healthy..as cliche as it sounds..drink alot of milk

  • @ swinch95- looked again he said 5'9"...errr

  • swinch95 @ 5'6 is a good height. wait till your 16 and you should have a shot. You may get in to specialty modeling like areas like hands and feet for example.

  • I want to be a model so bad bt I'm 14 and only 5' 6". Do you think I will grow enough to be a model?

  • @swinche95 not at 5'6 hun..but at 14 i was 5'6...and im 15 now and 5'8 because i was doing yoga..it straightens your spine and elongates yourself..trust me and try some yoga exercises whenever you can..and drink milk..i lost hope at 14 when i was 5'6 and told tht im to short and look at me now:) hahah good luck

  • PEW PEW!

  • 13 is way too young....finish high school first!!!

  • @MrPiper77 they dont take you out of school. They only ask you to come in the summer, or breaks or weekends. I learned this because i went to proscout

  • Comment removed

  • whoop whoop

  • @louiecord I aspire to be a model as well :) I have been approached on multiple occasions bit my mom always used to say no because i was too young but now I am 13 years old and 5'7 and I really want to be a model and my mom is ok with it so what you have to do is go onto elites website take photos of yourself as he describes in the video and then send them off and hopefully you will receive a reply :)

  • I really want to get signed with Elite. I've been trying to get into modeling for about 2 years. I'm 14 now and 5'9 or so. I do live over seas but I'm moving back to the states in December. Would they consider me? Or even just take a look at my photos?

  • @Niitaaax3 i was at a katy perry concert.

  • do you think it's possible to sign with a top agency and still balance high school?

  • @nerdybynature14 yes but you have to discuss if they can work around school and stuff.

  • @peaceandbasketball Are you able to balance modelling? I'm assuming you're the same age as me and work with Elite. Oh and how much do you get paid? Thanks for answering(:

  • @nerdybynature14 this is all the stuff i know from the open call, so i dnt know abt the pay and stuff. but when i was scouted the made it very clear that they could work around school and sports.

  • i didnt know elite was so big! i got scouted by them a days ago and im so exited to go to the open call!!

  • in the beginning the models he listed, lydia hearst, and georgia jagger are 5'7. now he's saying they want models that are 5'10???

  • For those who need a couple of inches to get to the height requirments exercise and take growing pills!

  • I've always wanted to become a model but now I'm 21 and 5'10". Am I too old for this industry? Also, I have an exotic look but it's not the Eastern European look that's so popular :\

  • @faeryfreak785 you're not old.. 21 is a good age to model.. not the best age but not the worse... and dont worry about having a specific look, as long as you're very good looking, sensual, simple, and professional, they will have a certain interest in you... be positive and go to the castings... good luck!

  • Does it count if you're 5'9 in heels...?

  • i would love to model for this agency!

    i am sixteen turn seventeen on oct 23, and i am about 5'0.

    i would like to get noticed for modeling,acting,and singing. :)

  • I'm 13, 5'7 and I would love to be a model Elite, I was at a music festival on sunday, and Got scouted by some people there working for Elite, however I don't really know how you actually apply and start out?

  • @Magnolia570 if you get scouted they contact you for an appointment and what not

  • I'm 16 and 5'10", so I have a chance? =)

  • im 14 and im 5'6 well i can still grow..

  • @FreeToLiveOurLifeTH ofcourse if your 14 you are still in the growing stage. But your 14 and your 5'6 that is really good so your chances in your future is your going to grow up being pretty tall. Which is a petite model's dream. I'm also 14 and I'm 5'9.

  • @Giselle971 OMG! you're 5'9... thats how tall i wan to get... but im scare cause i've been this height for a while..

  • @FreeToLiveOurLifeTH same im 5'10 but havent grown in like a year.

  • @ExploreModeling Even when I'm 14, is there a chance that an agency like Elite, Ford, IMG, etc. will sign a girl with little experience? Haha, most of my experience comes from an obsession with America's Next Top Model and having my mother be a professional photographer. One more question: Is it considered exclusive or not if you have one agency for modeling and one for singing/acting?

  • @supersonicswimmer83 yeah big companys are always looking for fresh faces, and it depends if you have a exclusive contract or not.

  • I sooooo badly want to be with Elite. I'm 13 and 5'6.5", so yes, I will grow more, but I REALLY REALLY want to be Elite! It says on their website you need to be at least 14, but if I come in, will they accept me as 13?

  • @supersonicswimmer83 May need to wait just one more year :)

  • HI! Im 15 years old, 5"9, and im like.....stick thin skinny. What modeling position do you think would be great for me?

  • well, i know in this business you need great skin. right, i have bit of blemishes would that stop me from being able to maybe get seen 

  • I would love to become a model but i cant find the right agency so im hoping the right one finds me :)

  • I would like to model too but I don't know where to start. I'm only 5'5 and I'm 17 years old:c I hope I grow taller:P

  • I am only 5'4 and I know that models have to be tall, but for some reason people tell me I could be one.. I keep myself in good shape because that is really important to me... if you want to check me out go to you tube and suscribe to my page.

  • So I'm 13 right now, and I'm just wondering what age you have to be to model for Elite. It looks like a great place to model and I'm hoping i can start soon.;)

  • @MsLivinItup15 13 is about the right age to start out... Elite is a great agency. There are many others too...

  • @ExploreModeling Thank you!

  • @MsLivinItup15 13 is about the right age to start out... Elite is a great agency. There are many others too...

  • Comment removed

  • @MsLivinItup15 a lot of companys sign a agreement to only hire models above the age of 13. so in my case i get my braces off around the time im 14 so they said that hopefully i can start then.

    so if there is anything holding you back like braces then i would say wait.

  • I'm 6. is that to tall?

  • Im 15, and 5'10" im going to proscout on the 24th of this month and i wanted to know what u think my chances are at getting signed if i make it to the convention? Please and Thanks. i enjoy feedback!

  • I have a question, I'm 5"3 male, and I will go to any country, work in commercial print division or special category division to work, do I still have a shot?

  • I am very interested in becoming a fashion model, im 14, and 5'8. I am also very tall and skinney. If or when you do send a photo or polariod (for elite modeling) to elite, how long will it take to get a call back?(if you get it) Thanks

  • Love this channel. Keep up the good work!

  • He looks like a right old perv. Just like the kind you'd expect to find at a model agancy.

    The headlines in the 1990's were a good read. Should have been R18 ;-)

  • So...if I'm 14 and 5'1 I have no chance? Oh goody.

  • when im 17 i would love to become a elite model but the thing thats letting me down is my height whats the smallest a model can actally be?

  • @MakeUpByJenniferW There are no height requirements in commercial print modeling. Also, many swimwear/ lingerie models are 5'3 or under...

  • @ExploreModeling 5'3 and under! Really? Thank you, I'm 5'7 and I feel much more hope!

  • @MakeUpByJenniferW there's no heigh requirements. but shorter models stay in editorial and catalog. very rare do the shorter models go on paris runways unless there's truly a greater talent.

  • Great interview. Want to see an amazingly cute boy up for modeling? check out babyrobokan on youtube....

  • are 5'8, and measurements of 31-23.5-34 good stats for modeling?

  • what about kids in modeling, I have an agent but not getting much luck.....

  • Are open calls still any day from 3-4? Or was this just last year?

  • Hmmm, anyone know of agencies that focus more on commercial(such as cosmetic/skin care/clothing companies than runway type stuff. )

  • When he says 5ft10 he actually means 5ft9, as nearly every model gets bumped up by 1 inch. Unless ur 6ft1 and u get rounded down.

  • Someone made the study? Can you tall us who? If you want to talk nonsense it would be nice to at lest know where you got it from we do not blame you.

  • 60% of people in the planet? Sorry man but can you stop that nonsense? I have never heard about it and so at least 95% of people in the planet so stop offending our intelligence. Thank you.

  • i want to model for elite but im waiting to book an interview

    i hope im what they are looking for cause ive been trying to get signed for the past 3 months. and i havent booked any interiews but im afraid that they are going to reject me and my dreams of being a model wont happen.

    im 5'9, is there a certian look they search for?

  • I've sent photos to TONS of agencies. People tell me I look like a redheaded Karlie Kloss.

    How can I get noticed more?

    I'm 5'9, 123 pounds, 33-25-33, Size 2

  • I do not trust this guy.

  • @HardeyLeone I know what you mean

  • I do not trust this guy.

  • Comment removed

  • I love this girl and Elite is probably the best agency in this world..Can't wait to sign up in Elite Italy... :)))

  • i hate elite im 12 one time i looked up elite models and they showed young naked girls i logged offf of course i hate this company

  • @The1superbeatlefreak  huh? lol.

  • Im 5'7, 15yrs old, 105lbs. Im very thin but I've noticed that most models have very strong jaw lines. I still have somewhat of a baby face. Is a strong jaw line one of the most-wanted characteristics that agencies want? What do agencies look for?

    And should I start off with a smaller agency and then move up to an agency like Elite? Or could I start out with Elite although I don't have any modeling experience?

  • I just sent my photos to elite modeling. Will it take long for them to call me back if they are interested?

  • hi! My name is Alex im 15yrs old, 125 pounds and im very handsome.....i was hoping if u can give me some tips on how to start my modeling career?

  • 5'10" ?!?!?! what about 5' 8.5"?

  • Still a great height for fashion. He is only talking about the Elite agency in NYC...

  • @ExploreModeling

    Are open calls still any day from 3-4? Or was this just last year?

  • @ExploreModeling What about kids in modeling do you have any suggestions, I have 3 children and I do have an agent but not working yet.

  • @johnwaynepresley, these are runway models or part time runway models. They have to be seen in the back rows. They would probably fudge it for a famous actress or musican, but they have enough bodies to not go lower than their minimum. Photograph models and actresses are generally short with most being 5'8" and lower. That's because they have to be shorter than their leading men (including Tom Cruise) which are generally in the picture.

  • they dont have a youtube channel?

  • The womans actually wrong when she says they have locations in every country.

    I live in B.C. Canada. There is no Elite Model Management here except in Toronto .

    It's informative but, it's kinda not. being tall is not just one requirement. There is a HUGE variety of other things.

  • I'm 5'8" and 14...

  • Hey I'm 13 and thinking about starting modeling. Im 5'3 still growing, I just got my braces off, my teeth are perfect! My body is in shape, hair is healthy...etc. Does anyone have any tips on starting?

  • 5'3" is short for most high fashion modeling.

    Tips are -find what you really love to do with modeling-what genre- and what you niche is. Best advice I can give you. It might be a bit hard being the height you are though.

  • Yeah you're right. They like girls who are like 6 feet! Haha. I hope I grow taller, Im still young! :) I got good genes too, XD!

  • You have to know your market. You are short like me so Ford would not be your modeling market. There are many markets. Sample, example, you and I would probably fall under the petitite market. My advice do your research! You don't have to be 5'7 or taller to be a model. Many different industries!

  • 5'9 is still pretty tall, and alot of top models are that height .

    grrr silly mannnn .

  • Informative video!

  • wow i really wana do that but i heard they are really picky and the test shots are a lil confusing plus i live n tx

  • Comment removed

  • Are there any agencies that will take on petite models as clients? Im curious to know.

  • no ties, ford, they all accept little petite people. Im currently working ties with elite and ford

  • Wait, you are serious, Ford and elite are accepting petitie models?

  • barely. The only petite people elite accept ever is people younger than 13 years of age. I work with the kids section of ford modeling agency, so I don't have a problem.

  • lol. wow. but i still believe anyone can model. you just have to know your market or create it. :-P

    My market is somewhere between apple bottoms etc

  • the horror

  • The horror?
