Welcome to the Mayhem!

This site is full of useful tips for beginning models; it's well worth reading over.

You can search for casting calls in your area, or post your availability or travel plans, via the Casting/Travel link in the site nav bar.

And this thread (stickied at the top of this forum) has some useful information on common scams and how to recognize them.

Sure. Should you find your way to Philadelphia, look me up. You're underage, so I wouldn't be able to shoot you for the type of work I'm mostly on Model Mayhem for, but I enjoy shooting headshots, portraits, etc. and can usually find time to squeeze one in.

Welcome to the Mayhem hienvy

Three good ways to network are:

Post an availability notice letting people know that you are available (under the casting/travel tab). This is for when you want to charge money. You can offer trade as well.

Search for Casting Calls in your area based on criteria you select. Post a Casting Call letting people know about an idea you have and want to put into a work of art. This is for when you are willing to pay other people. You can offer trade as well.

Search or Post Casting Calls and Travel/Availability Notices
Official Casting Call Rules - Read

Browse for photographers in your area and leave comments on images you like, send a friend request or message. Start a list of photographer's photos that you think are top notch for photographers in your area. This can become something of a Rolodex. Make sure that you select the Advanced Options and select an appropriate Logged in within:. I typically use 30 days, but you may want people who respond faster. Otherwise you will get photographers who haven't logged in in over a year. There are a lot of inactive accounts.

Good luck in your search!
