Does anyone know of any modeling schools besides Barbizon that teach you how to walk, talk and be like a model? I want to start modeling but I'm only 18.
missbananafontana answered Friday January 4 2008, 5:35 pm: All modeling "schools" are complete scams. The best you should do is to send in photos into modeling agencies, and if they see that you could be a profitable model, they will invest money and time into you. Schools like Barbizon and John Robert Powers are fakes that rip you off. All they're going to do is take photos of you and steal thousands of dollars from you. There are legit talent schools for acting and making Broadway stars, but modeling schools don't teach you anything. Real modeling agencies will not take your money. I suggest sending snapshots of yourself and getting an agent at the Ford Agency. [ missbananafontana's advice column | Ask missbananafontana A Question ]

Word from the wise though,
they are pretty expensive for classes.
You'll go to an open audition,
and if you get a callback
they'll ask for $1000 to start out
then more per class.
If the money isn't a problem,
then I say go for it! [ topaz_x's advice column | Ask topaz_x A Question ]
