how does one become a male model?

>inb4 be good looking
>inb4 be really really good looking

>> No.6663731

Learn about lighting and angles and basic photography

Learn the rudiments of fashion and pattern-making

Probably be autistic

Probably suck some dicks to get a foot in the door

Know how to market thyself

>> No.6663743

are you retarded.
why would a model need to know about fashion or lighting. they don't decide anything themselves, are told what to where, how to walk and where to stand.

a lot of male models will learn about lighting and stuff, just from being around it and listening to it.
plus they are gonna be going over "pre shoots" and stuff and they'll want to have some type of idea.

if you're around something all the time how could you not learn about it?

I've been told I should try modeling by a model.

How should I take my selfies to submit to modeling agencies, what kind of lighting should I use, how should I pose, what are they looking for?

How much can modeling pay, what do basic advertisments photo shoots pay and how much does runway modeling pay (can I keep the cloths after?).

I'm 6'4" and 180-185lbs with thick wavy brown hair. I've been told I look like Aston Kutcher.

I guess having unique face features and strong jaw, being lean and tall is a good start.

That feel when people tell you that you look like Cilian Murphy but you aren't really photogenic.
