Acting : 2 Proven Tips That Get Actors Commercial Modeling Jobs by Aaron Marcus

Great tips, Aaron Marcus!

Thank you so much.

You're welcome, Aaron Marcus.

Aaron Marcus thanks again for these. Whilst I don't do any modelling I enjoyed getting an understanding of your process. In particular the acting techniques that you use to make the photograph come to life. In the particular example you gave I could just picture you as a kid/young man on the sports ground with a huge grin on his face and shouting loudly. It's great that you are able to draw on this. I find that when i draw on memories to milk the emotion they tend to go 'stale' after a while.Any tips for that?

Thank you, Alexandra. Any reason why you haven't pursued commercial modeling? There are a lot of categories I can see you being cast in. To answer your question. I try to bring back the emotion and they scale it sometimes. Bring it up, down or add a different but similar experience so that I can show a wide variety of looks.

Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom and insights here.

Hi Aaron Marcus no particular reason why i hadn't considered commercial modelling. To be honest probably because I didn't even think it was a thing. Not even sure how I would get started with that. Do you need to be in a big city like London or LA to have the best opportunities. I"m a bit curious now. I'm guessing you have posted You Tube videos on this topic and your book too of cours.

Don’t feel bad. Most people are unfamiliar with commercial print work. You will find jobs virtually everywhere. Big cities and small.

You would be cast as the professional, highly educated

person. Doctor, lawyer therapist, teacher, yoga instructor, mom and in many other roles. Yes, my book, How to Become a Successful Actor and Model walks you through the process. You want to learn how to prepare and create the right types of commercial photos and not the generic ones most people get.

You can market yourself and or have a local agent submit your photos for work

And, you are also correct, I do have videos on my YouTube Channel sharing information about commercial modeling work

If you ever have a specific question, always feel free to reach out

Aaron Marcus thanks so much for this great advice. Hmmm......i'm interested. As soon as things quieten down a bit I might look into it and will then check our your videos.

Let me know if you ever have a question.
