Did you know that Models are self employed... a.k.a. "Freelancers"?? They work for "themselves".
Technically, "Bookers" at an agency work for the models to find opportunities for them to work and they will receive "commissions" as their compensation if the model gets the job.
Food for Thought: Bookers don't just work for "one" Model, so there are other factors that make models feel that they are at the mercy of their Bookers. (Ummm...they are!) Bookers are human, and depending on their attitude about a model can affect how well they actually "promote" the model to the other industry people that they may potentially work with.
Ideal Situation: Have a GOOD relationship with your Booker if you're a Model represented by an agency. Stay on their good side and there may be a better outcome ;) - A.K.A. Models Edu. Series
INDUSTRY CRUSADERS! A.K.A. Models is Creating Alliances Within the Modeling Industry that Share, Educate, and Promote the Best Parts of the Industry while Striving to Make the Bad Parts a Little Better...YES, IT'S POSSIBLE. A Bit Controversial, but I'm not here as a model to post pictures of myself. I'm here as an educator and sometimes an advocate to help you educate yourself!
