ASK AARON - October 2005 Answer

Last Month's Column:

I was told that you have to be a minimum of 5'9" to be considered for runway modeling. I know that Kate Moss is under 5'9", so is it just the confidence and determination that gets you on top?

Next Month's Column:

I want to look into getting bookings in the health and fitness industry. How do I market myself to these types of publications?

“This book is a must-have for any and every aspiring commercial model. Aaron's advice is great, and his thoughtfully-prepared book really paints a clear picture of what it takes to get into the modeling business. The best part of the book is that Aaron provides you with his personal contact information--because of this, I have exchanged numerous E-mails with Aaron directly. He is so helpful -- and free with his suggestions and advice -- that he gives you the confidence to give commercial modeling a try. I would highly recommend this book to anyone and everyone who is considering commercial modeling--you'd be lost without it! Thanks, Aaron!”

From Pete, WA

I would like to learn how to speak English with a Spanish accent, Irish accent, or French accent. Can you point me in the right direction that I can go? DVD, books, classes, or websites will be helpful.

Dear Pete:

You might want to try finding a speech pathologist who specializes in dialects. I know there are tapes on the market. Maybe try visiting the Models Mart on line and seeing if they have any tapes for you. Their address is: http://www.models-mart.com/. If that does not work, try using Google.

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.
