Do you really want to succeed?   Do you have a special talent?   Put yourself 'in the shop window' and promote yourself in the best possible light!

. 

Are you tall, dark and handsome, a double for Giselle or Justin T?  If you are a Model this may well be what an Agency is looking for.   On the other hand you may not, unfortunately, be what casting directors are looking for!  It may well be possible that they are looking for the exact opposite, or anything in between!    In TV, Film, Background Artists (Extras) or even Commercials almost every shape and size of person is required. (TV/Film Extras currently earn around £60 per day including all meals.  Some Models earn anything from a few pounds to thousands depending on their assignment.  

It cannot be stated enough but difference is most important.    What is also really vital is that you 'advertise' yourself, and nor does it matter if you are a current act.

Here at Royale Promotions we promise to display up to five of your photographs and biography online, which will, by the nature of the internet, be available worldwide giving you excellent coverage and exposure to anyone interested in the business.  We will also notify known agencies and TV/Film companies, on a regular basis, that our site has been updated.

Animals are also well sought after in advertising and commercials etc., so give your pet a chance.  Spell out exactly what is different or exciting about your 'loved one'.

Some newspaper classified sections, fashion magazines and websites are suggesting, in their adverts, that stardom is just around the corner if you only pay a percentage of your future earnings (which could be thousands) or pay around £85 (c.$120) per annum for them to display your details or act as your agent.  They decide what you do!   *   We will e-mail you (phone if urgent) details of all approaches and thereafter you will deal directly with the casting director, model agency etc.      Some agencies require you to travel hundreds of miles, at great cost, for the chance of being selected for example Catwalk, Fashion, Promotional  or TV/Film extra work, but of course at your own expense!   This is currently Free with Royale-Promotions - but hurry, not for too long!

If you decide we are not for you please be aware of scams.    A typical scam involves certain agencies promising modelling jobs, but require you to purchase a very costly portfolio as a pre-requisite for gaining employment.   Of course this "photographer" just happens to be associated with that agency!

Please DO NOT spend a huge amount of money on photographs, but do ensure that they are of a good or above average quality, are of interest, not all in the same outfit and will promote what you are trying to 'get across' to employers (e.g. hair, face, figure etc.) and try to wear something appropriate.      Click to read : Some DO's and DO NOT's you should most definitely read are shown here  - please read  - it MAY well help you.
