Excerpt

WHAT IS A MODEL?

    First of all the main purpose of a model is to sell something. It can be clothes, jewelry, cars...ext. When most people think of models, the first thing that comes to mind is a bunch of skinny girls walking on a runway, some big strong rugged stud or an absolutely flawless girl on the cover of their favorite magazine. This is what most people think modeling is all about, but that is actually a tiny, tiny part of the modeling business.
    Lets get one thing straight. You don't have to be beautiful, sexy, handsome or skinny to be a highly paid model. If you are one of those, then that is good too, because there is work for you in fields that focus on those looks. Also you may not think that you are one of those, but with a little hair styling, make up and exercising you may find that little old you is in one of those categories. So if you are not one of those then don't worry. There is more work out there for you than you can imagine. All sorts of different companies need different shapes and sizes of models. Some may need balding and middle aged men or preppy computer nerds while another may need just an average looking guy/girl or a heavier plus size model. There is plenty of work out there for every type of model and most of the time you can be molded into whatever looks are needed. The most commonly sought after model is the "just average" looking model because they can easily be changed from one look to another. Versatility is very important.
    Honestly, lets face it; some people are more "sexy" or "hot" than others in the worlds eyes, but modeling is a skill that can be learned by anyone. It actually has very little to do with your appearance. Modeling is about 90% mental and 10% physical.
