Become a model in Zwolle
Becoming a model in Zwolle 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 Zwolle, in the region and across Europe.
Why Zwolle
Applying from Zwolle is simple: four photos, measurements, contact details. You hear from us with a clear yes or no and, if yes, a date for a video call.
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.

Four natural photos: face front, face profile, full body front, full body side. Daylight, plain clothes, no make-up, no filters.
07Can I apply at 30, 40 or 50?
Absolutely. Clients book faces of all ages, and the classic category is one of our busiest.
08Can I model part-time?
Part-time works well, especially for e-commerce and commercial jobs, which are usually day productions.
