Answer 1

Anyone who wants you to pay them...... RUN. Model agents get 10% of what you earn. That means they get you work and then they get paid.

Answer 2

When you start looking for agents, the way to find out if they're scammers is if they charge you tons of money!  I know from experience with a beauty pageant I almost entered.  They told me I was a state finalist, but that I had to pay thousands of dollars to be in the pageant.  I then found an article from a guy who had experiences from modeling agencies and he had this huge list of what to look out for, and payment was the first thing!

By the sounds of it, this proscouts meeting sounds like it's not going to do you any good.  Try out more than just one option and whichever one you feel the safest with, go for it!  Make sure to keep your eyes opened and your parents included with all of this.  Start small:  Try out for local modeling auditions at a shopping mall.  Do your research!  Keep in mind that the biggest stars started small and early!

Good luck and I wish you the best!

Answer 3

i go to John Robert Powers modeling school

and the first thing they taught us is that those deals are complete scams

if your good they add you to their agency for free

some agencies pay for your makeup artists..thats it

youre and asset to them because they get money from the jobs you book

dont do it

itll be a waste of time and money

do a little research online

before you do anything in modeling

theres sooo many ways to get ripped off

or waste your time
