Questions
Frequently asked
01Do I need experience to apply from Mestre?
No. Most of our models started without experience. What matters is natural photos, honest measurements and time for castings and jobs.
02Does the application cost anything?
Nothing. We never charge for comp cards, photos or courses; if someone does, it is not us.
03How tall do I need to be?
For fashion, women from about 172 cm and men from about 184 cm. Commercial and classic have no fixed limits; the face and the presence matter more.
04Do I have to come to Frankfurt?
Not for the application. The first conversation is a video call; castings happen in the region or in Frankfurt, reachable by plane or train.
05What does a model earn?
Day rates depend on the category and the usage: e-commerce days at the lower end, campaigns with buyouts at the upper end. Our commission is stated in the contract.
06Can I apply at 30, 40 or 50?
Yes. Classic models are in demand for commercial, corporate and healthcare productions; there is no upper age limit.
07Will I hear back?
With a clear yes or no, once we have looked at your photos. If yes, we propose a date for the video call.
08Do I have to be exclusive with ROW ONE?
You decide. Some models are exclusive with us, others are not; both work.
