TAMPA BAY MODELING TAMPA BAY MODELING JOBS TO AVOID BAD DEALS We don't know if it because of the economy or not, but lately modeling job offers posted on a certain free Internet classifieds site are getting a lot worse. Some of the most insulting to models are retail stores and businesses with the nerve to ask models to work modeling jobs for FREE! They do these promotions, and they do these fashion shows, marketing their business and making money from it, and the models don't get paid. We talked to Ryan, a booker over at Benz, and he said that a lot of independent models who were booking work without going through an agency were not getting paid. We thought that he was joking until we saw some of these crappy modeling jobs posts. Any business that doesn't want to pay models, and tries to convince models to do jobs for "experience" and to "network" needs to be boycotted, in our opinion. It's pathetic! Then, again, you don't have to be a professional, or a business, to be able to post an ad on a freebie classified site, a site which posts anything and everything. The following modeling job offers, in our opinion, are bad deals. If we are wrong about any of these, please prove it. This is pretty much for entertainment, too. Read the post. Think about it. Our replies follow. Swimsuit Models
Needed (International Plaza Tampa) Mall Retail store needs live mannequin models for in store event. Women's designer swimsuit store is searching for mannequin models for in store Girl's Night Out event November 12, 2009. The event is to promote new merchandise arrivals and giveaways will be awarded. Models will work in windows wearing swimsuits and coverups between 6-9pm. This job does not offer pay but is a great experience to add to your resume. Serious inquiries contact manager to setup meeting. Call (813) (Omitted) * Location: International
Plaza Tampa What?!?!? You want models to work three hours and not get paid? It's for experience, and it would be a great addition to our resume? You cheap @$$ B%$#^%$^%$^%$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The brazeness, and nerve, of this modeling job post really pisses us off. You obviously do not have any respect for professional models! International Plaza has been advertising their Girls Night Out campaign like crazy. You are going to be marketing your retail store, making money, and you want free labor. It's not fair to use models to make money, and not pay them! "Mannequin" modeling is not easy, as models have to pose absolutely still, and it is a modeling job that pays more than regular promotional modeling. As a minimum, should be paying those models $30.00 per hour cash, EACH! I'm thinking that you thought that manniquen modeling would be a cool promotional effort for your store, and that you could find three or four suckers.... I mean, models, to work for free while you make money. I suggest that you poney up the $270.00 to $360.00 and pay the models. What's really pathetic is that International Plaza is an expensive, high-dollar mall with upper-scale customers, and that $270.00 to $360.00 is pocket change for most models. We'd be doing you a favor allowing you to get off so cheap! Just because the economy sucks does not mean that you can get away with selling models short, cutting their rates, or, in your case, eliminate paying the help altogether. I can imagine the sales staff, and yourself, laughing at all the pretty models behind their backs as they work for free, and everyone else gets paid. Why don't you ask your sales staff and regular store workers to work for free, too, while you are at it? After all, by your logic, it's good for experience, and will look great on their resume! Maybe you could get some of your store employees to do the manniquin modeling while wearing swimsuits, if they can pull it off. After all, modeling is easy. You only have to be one of the beautiful people- or so you think, because you are not models. Modeling is tough. It takes talent. How DARE you disrespect a profession that takes more dedication, investment, and qualifications than any of your minimum wage staff are qualified for! You're the "store manager". This is your idea, and your promotion will make you look good in the eyes of corporate if it helps your bottom line. I suggest that you pay the models $90.00 each to do the job, if they are not that experienced. You could pay it out of your own damn pocket, too, or make the effort to convince corporate to do it. You are pathetic, and you can expect us to boycott your sorry-ass store! After seeing your unprofessional attitude toward models, you'll be lucky to pull of your promotion for less than $50.00 per hour per model (putting up with dumbass retailers pay, plus compensation for being eye candy posing in skimpy bikinis)! That's $150.00 per model. If you want four models, pay up $600.00. Hell, that's still cheap! Thank GOD there are a lot of models out there who feel the same way, and they flagged off your stupid ad in disgust! Plus Model Casting Call At
(Omitted) In The Brandon Mall (Brandon Mall) There will be a Plus Model
Casting Call tomorrow Sat. October 17th at the (Omitted) store in the
Brandon Mall from 4pm-6pm. * Location: Brandon Mall No pay? You better pay those models! It's bad enough being in a fashion show for plus sized clothing, but you need to PAY THEM, especially if it promotes your business and makes you money! Models let us sell your photos…….
(bay area) Professional or amateur models looking to earn extra money. Let us sell your photo and we pay thirty percent commission. You supply tasteful quality photos I’ll drop the background put them on my site for sale… With the economy being what it is promoters are looking to save money so it is much cheaper for them to buy already keyed assets be it photos or footage. Photos could be used for anything magazines, art or promotion of any kind… Must be at least eighteen and sign a model release If you have any reservations
about where your photo will be used please don’t apply as I have
no control over what they will be used for….. Check out the site (Omitted) If you are interested get back to me either through this ad or my contact page… * Location: bay area You have no control over what they will be used for? YOU'RE SELLING THEM! Of course you have control! Also, another jerk who uses the economy as a catch-phrase, insulting and patronizing people. The same company posted an ad looking for sexy and provocative pictures, too, so we have to wonder what those pictures will be used for. Models don't want their likeness being used to promote dating services and adult businesses. They don't want their "sexy" pictures being taken out of context and making them look slutty or trashy. You can take your picture solicitation and shove it up your @$$. Also, what about the photographers who also own rights to those pictures (did you think that the models took them?)? Do they have any say in how their work will be used? We didn't think so. We looked at your work, and it sucks, too. No wonder you are soliciting models for their pictures. You are not able to take good ones yourself!
Model for beach shoot today?
(Tampa Bay) Had a beach photo shoot lined up with a model today but she no showed. Want to set up another with a serious model. Send face and body pic and be ready to shoot friday am/pm. * Location: Tampa Bay Ha ha! Too bad, so sad. Although we don't condone models pulling a no-call, no-show on a professional modeling job, we don't think that you qualify. We also don't approve of the model leading you on and misleading you, when she should have been straight-up with you. This said, who are you? Are you a photographer who we would want to shoot with? Are you any good? Why don't you identify yourself? Why is it that very few people posting on the classified sites identify themselves? Serious models require serious pay, and only work with professional photographers who have a portfolio, and who can be checked out. We are models. We don't want to date you. We want to get paid, not laid! Why is it that your shady-@$$ ads feel so shady? Are you looking for a date, or are you serious about taking pictures of models? Why do we feel hunted when we read your ads? Why don't you tell us who you are and what your references are? Oh, and is that "50" serious pay, as in cash? Is that $50.00 for an hour? It had better be. Or, is it a $50.00 dinner certificate, which isn't really pay? Why can't you pay in cash? Loser. You're pathetic! Male models for bridal show
(tampa) Please email us for more info. * Location: tampa Oh, yes, this is why we became models! We invested in our careers and work really hard because we want to end up to working for free! Another company seeking free labor while they make money from the show, or sell the bridal show to their clients and make money that way, too. Not at all worth it. Models, go out and do something fun instead of wasting your time. Maybe you could check out these fashion shows and make fun of the idiotic models who agreed to work for free! Female Teen Swimsuit models
needed (Tampa Bay) Female teen swimsuit and glamour models needed for websites. Send photos and info for consideration and possible test shoot. If chosen for a web shoot, $250-$500 per shoot.
That's a lot of pay for a modeling web site! Who are your customers? How do you make your money? Why do they have to be teen models? Who in the hell shoots glamour pictures of underage girls? Teenage girls have no business posing in skimpy clothing or in provocative poses. It's not modeling. It's something else. We have a qualified opinion here at Tampa Bay Modeling, and the opinion goes like this: "sites featuring children in provocative poses and revealing clothing might not be considered child pornography by the law, but it is child pornography all the same, and you can bet your last dollar that it's being used as such". Scumbag! Female model needed for topless
shoot (Tampa area) The shoot is only for 30min and pays $30. The photos will only be of your top and not include your face, will be anonymous. For those interested, just send a pic of your top, clothed or bare doesn't matter, and I will get back to you. I'm looking to do the shoot very soon. You don't have to be a model to do this. It's a very simple photo shoot. If there any questions, just ask. * Location: Tampa area Are models really this desperate for pocket change? Oh, wow.... We make a whole $30.00 for a risky modeling job which has the potential to undermine the career of a model! Aw, thanks... you won't include our face?! That makes it alright...... Hey, wait, how do we know that our faces are not in the shots? Do the models see what the photographer is shooting when they are in front of the camera posing? Also, what in the hell kind of modeling shoot is it when the model does not show their face, and the breasts are the subject? Could it be some new-fangled parts modeling job where the breasts are symbolic of a reputable product? Are our breasts going to advertise breast augmentation, or the services of some plastic surgeon, which then becomes false advertisement because they did not sculpt our breasts? Or, maybe, it is a fetish job for someone with a breast fetish! Oh, and we don't have to be a model? What kind of professional books a model into a modeling job who is not really a model? Fetish modeling undermines commercial, mainstream modeling work. No sane professional model who is a mainstream model does that. We care about our careers! Try at least $500.00, @$$hole, and you had be better be a professional photographer with references. If not, no way at any price! You're not exploiting anyone! If this is for legitimate, professional use, we will be aware of everything that the pictures are used for, too, or you can forget about a modeling release. Oh, and who are you? Why don't you identify yourself so we can evaluate your work? Pictures are forever, and cannot be undone..... High-risk modeling work can only be done with professionals who we completely know and trust, and is for professional models only, models who do that kind of work. We'll pass. Looking for Male models for
Bridal show (Tampa-Surrounding areas) Bridal show is November 1, 2009. Must be able to take direction well and be DEPENDABLE. Tux will be provided as well as hair cuts. Please email head shot and availability to email. Thanks!!! PS-not a paid event TF * Location: Tampa-Surrounding
areas Wanted: Dependable, professional models. We don't want to pay you, but you had better be dependable, or, else! We will fire you from our non-paying modeling job, and will sue you for breach of contract, if you are not dependable. Do the guys get to keep the Tux? We didn't think so. Do we get paid anything? Oh, that's right. We should be grateful for the experience, which a professional model, the type of model that you are looking for, would already have. This is probably the same bridal show that is posted above. You cheap @$$ businesses had better quit insulting models, and you need to pay them, before we boycott you! Is a hair cut worth the $500.00 that a model would normally make modeling at a bridal show? At the very least, even lowly promotional models make at least $15.00 per hour, four hour minimum. Can you at least pay them $60.00? We didn't think so. We hope that you go out of business and end up unemployed! Runway Models Needed (The Shops
At Wiregrass ) We are looking for runway models for a FASHION SHOW to be held on Saturday October 24th in The SHOPS AT WIREGRASS. We will be holding a Model Search Event on Tuesday Evening OCTOBER 20th from 6-8pm in the Mall Office Conference Room - located between (Omitted) and (Omitted) - behind the shopping center. * Location: The Shops At Wiregrass A fashion show!
