Become a model
Become a model in Gothenburg
Becoming a model in Gothenburg starts at ROW ONE with four photos and your measurements. The application takes five minutes, application and admission are free, and we answer every application. Castings take place by video call, in our rooms in Frankfurt or at the production site; jobs come up in Gothenburg, in the region and across Europe.
Why Gothenburg
What we look for in Gothenburg: natural photos, honest measurements, time for castings and jobs. What we do not need: a portfolio, a course certificate or a fee. We take care of the first pictures ourselves.
The agency grew out of THE GOOD STAFF, which has staffed events for years. We know what clients book, and we only take models we can actually place. That is why the board is small and the jobs are real.

Why Gothenburg
With around 610,000 inhabitants, Gothenburg has companies, agencies and studios that book models regularly, plus productions in Jönköping, Helsingborg and Aalborg within easy reach.
The harbour locations in Gothenburg attract productions; if you live here, you know the wind and the weather on set.

Questions
Frequently asked
01Do I need experience to apply from Gothenburg?
Experience is not a requirement. What counts: four natural photos, correct measurements and the willingness to travel to castings and productions.
02Does the application cost anything?
No. Application, admission and first polaroids are free. We earn a commission on jobs, never from you.
03How tall do I need to be?
Guide values: women 172 to 181 cm, men 184 to 192 cm for fashion. For commercial and e-commerce we book outside these ranges as well.
04Can I model part-time?
Part-time works well, especially for e-commerce and commercial jobs, which are usually day productions.
05Can I apply at 30, 40 or 50?
Absolutely. Clients book faces of all ages, and the classic category is one of our busiest.
06What about my photos and data?
Application photos are stored in private storage, not on the website, and deleted if we do not take you on. Board photos are published only with your consent.
07Do I have to be exclusive with ROW ONE?
No. Exclusivity is an option we discuss once you have worked with us; it is never a condition for admission.
08Do I have to come to Frankfurt?
Only if it suits you. From Gothenburg the interview happens online, polaroids follow our guide, castings take place where the jobs are.
