baby modeling and acting

baby modeling agencies — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 10:56:16 +0000

As discussed previously, baby modeling and acting go very well hand in hand and an acting career is often a natural progression from modeling at ANY age. The reason for this I find is that the acting provides an outlet for the individual to present themselves as personalities over and above their looks and to allow themselves more expression.
But before you present your child for this next step you need to consider if this is suitable for your child. If you think about the time and effort that it takes to be involved in modeling, then it is the same in acting but two-fold. The pressure is on, the criticism is high and your childs disposition becomes a lot more important as they do not use as many babies so they can’t just edit your child out as easily. But if your baby is a naturally buoyant personality and enjoys modeling then give it a try.

A lot of parents get their children into the baby modeling industry but then start to think where to from here? Well one of the best avenues is to join a baby acting agency. Obviously a baby is not able to do much to begin with, but by enrolling at a young age you give your child the best chance of feeling confident in front of the camera and learning to take direction from the photographers and cameramen. I find that children from this industry are usually very confident. However please do not indulge your child too much as I also find these children can become self-centred so you need to watch that!

The other benefit of this area is that the salaries are a lot higher for an form of acting and particularly when they are old enough to speak.

baby models casting

To continue our series on baby models casting calls, the next point to consider is how you are going to present your baby on the day. There are three things that I would recommend that you consider:

Clothing – casting calls are often full of potential candidates that all look the same. Try to be a bit different so that your child stands out from the crowd.

Purpose – many casting calls are set up for a particular campaign or purpose so you should be very aware of what this is about. You can then dress your baby accordingly and ensure that the judges will be able to picture your child in the adverts easily.

Personality – This is the perfect forum for a child to really show their personality but remember there will be a lot going on so you need to be sure your baby is able to cope with crowds and that they are well rested so you will be able to show them at their very best.

Other than that you can turn up and have some fun!

baby modeling castings

An area of the baby modeling industry that is often overlooked at the outset is baby modeling castings. Yet these are an excellent opportunity as they provide a different forum than the usual baby picture contests or baby modeling agencies.

As you will probably already be aware, the best agencies are often in big cities and thus can be restrictive for many parents and babies, while a picture contest will not allow the child to be see in person and the full depth of their personality taken into consideration. As such the baby modeling castings provide a middle ground where you can really showcase the talents of your child without needing to be with an agency.

baby talent

baby modeling agencies — Mon, 30 Nov 2009 14:58:42 +0000

Is your baby not only beautiful but talented as well? Is there something about you and your baby that sets you apart from the other children? If there is some serious baby talent then you should use that to your advantage as well. In this industry there are thousands of babies and children that are pretty much the same. Blue eyes, blonde hair and a cheeky grin can be a great asset for some, but it also puts you in one of the largest demographics of baby models. So in order to ensure YOU are getting the work that you want then you should try to differentiate yourself from the competition. One of the ways to do this is to highlight any skills that your child has that may be useful to the photographer.

As your child is obviously quite young these skills can be anything from crawling to speaking and everything in between. It may just be that they want a very small but advanced child and you can offer that. So pay attention and market whatever you can!

baby modeling commercials

If you want to get into baby modeling then you definitely want to get your baby into baby modeling commercials as well. These go hand in hand as many commercials will also have print media to go with them so you end up with two jobs rather than just the one.

On top of this the baby commercials often pay a lot more than standard photographic work. However be warned that this type of work can be quite hard on your child as there is a lot more going on in the set. Also, due to the costs involved to produce a commercial there is a lot more time pressue involved so you had better be sure that your baby has the temperament and disposition to cope with all of these elements.

The big agencies get a lot of this work so if you are interested then you should speak to them and see what is required to get involved at this level as well.

Local Baby Modeling

Another BIG consideration when you are looking into the world of baby modeling is to look at your location and where the local baby modeling agencies can be found. It is a basic fact that most of the big reputable agencies are located in big cities as this is where the photographers and clients are also based. Because of this you may find that your LOCAL baby modeling agent is 50 miles away rather than around the corner, and if this is the case you will need to be prepared to travel long distances on a very regular basis if you are to make a go of it.

For those of you that live in a big city like New York, London, Sydney or LA then this will be plenty of options available, but for those of you outside these zones you will be restricted in who is available to represent your baby and also how much work they will be able to find you that is local to you.

If you find a good one though then you may find that there are less clients and the local work that is available can be yours for the taking.

Modeling for Babies

baby modeling agencies — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 14:02:51 +0000

Does your baby often receive compliments on their looks or personality (not including relatives)? Do they make the people around them smile? Does YOUR baby have what it takes to be the next big thing in baby modeling? If so, then modeling for babies may just be a perfect fit for your child.

A good baby model will earn a decent living, have fun and even make friends as they grow up in the industry. It can also often give them self-confidence.

However, the second question you have to ask yourself is whether YOU have what it takes to commit to such a venture. Very much like adult modeling, the baby industry can be tough on parent and child so you need to consider whether you both have the temprament for this work and also the endurance.

The main areas to consider are:

1. The days can be quite long and tiring and you may be standing for hours on end working with your child and the photographer. Are you up for the challenge?

2. To secure the top jobs you are likely to need to travel long distances which can cost your time and money and may be difficult for a working parent. Obviously you do not need to take these jobs, but it can be the difference between an average and highly successful baby modeling career.

3. You both need to have an outgoing, happy temperament overall as your child is usually going to be smiling a LOT, and you will need to be patient and able to communicate with quite a number of people on a regular basis. A shy parent will find all of this interaction incredibly draining.

4. Is this about money, fame or a laugh. Go into it knowing what you want to achieve, but make sure that the focus is on your baby first and foremost.
