Questions
Frequently asked
01Do I need experience to apply from Umeå?
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.
04Are there jobs in Umeå?
Umeå and the region offer jobs in e-commerce, commercial and events; for fashion and shows we book in Stockholm as well.
05Will I get a comp card?
Yes, once you are on the board. The comp card is produced by us, free of charge, and updated with every new set of pictures.
06From what age can I apply?
From 18 without further ado, from 16 with parental consent. There is no upper limit: classic models over 40 are in demand.
07What happens at the first casting?
A conversation, polaroids, measurements, a short walk. It takes about an hour, by video or in person.
08What 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.
