ASK AARON - December 2004 Answer

Last Month's Column:

I am 22 years old good looking guy, and have been interested in modeling for a few years. I am 6'3"/200lbs blond hair (short straight) and brown eyes. I never seem to look good in photos. Do you think I can still try and be a model?

Next Month's Column:

I live in Atlanta but am interested in attending an acting school in New York so I can show that I have some experience on my resume. They seem to be very expensive. Do you have any recommendations?

“I had the pleasure of having Aaron Marcus give his acting/commercial modeling seminar at my agency. What impressed me the most was how well he prepared my models and actors before their photo session. The homework and exercises he gave to my talent allowed them to walk into the photo session with a sense of confidence that helped them tremendously. The information was so valuable that I had my photographer take his workshop before the sessions. Aaron's workshop is a wonderful investment for all agencies and schools.”

How much does a stage actor get paid?

Dear Jill:

There are many factors that will determine a stage actors fee. It can depend on the theater, the role size, experience and whether you are in the stage actors union (Equity). To get the union rates try visiting http://www.actorsequity.org/home.html.

If you thought this was helpful, imagine how much you will learn from reading "How to Become a Successful Commercial Model." and by attending my Acting/Modeling Boot Camp.
