Every day is very different, however as a model agent there are key daily duties; Firstly promotion of the models or talent. This is done by making ‘go-sees’, setting up appointments with photographers, magazine, casting agents. In special bookings, pr is also key way of promoting the talent to clients. We’ll have strategic pr plans for each person, ie interviews with influential titles, attending key fashion events etc.
Other daily duties include negotiating contracts, usage, fee etc when it comes to booking jobs, sending models updates to our worldwide client list, developing the website, online marketing, updating portfolios with new images, arranging travel/accommodation, calling in clothes to dress more high profile talent, discussing new models or talent to take onto Storm books, sorting out work permits, meeting new photographers/clients.
New Faces agents focus on finding new talent and developing them. We scout all around the country, at festivals, events or with competitions and we also encourage people interested in modelling to come into the agency (details on website: " />

It’s important the models know how to move in front of a camera, this is why we set up ‘test shoots’, often with up and coming photographers, so they can build up their book and practice being in front of a camera. We also will teach the girls how to walk (for a catwalk show) and present themselves when meeting clients/photographers etc.
