    If is your dream go for it. Be prepared. Have a portfolio. Have manners. Have an open ear for any constructive critiques. Eye contact great handshake great smile. Follow direction. Stay healthy. Have other ways to support yourself while modeling and take some classes in a field you are interested in.

    That back-dated web fee sounds sketchy bro. Unless they continued to use your image they don't have grounds to charge you for services "not" rendered. I've had a few renewals from agencies I'm no longer with and at no time did they include fees outside of the contracted 20%. Perhaps there was some sort of "agreement" there but outside of that no sir.
    Regarding pay, your Tier of modeling dictates your pay.

    I wish she didn't interrupt him so often. Jeez. Everytime I try to hear a point he's about to make, she jumps in. Such a bad habit.

      The CSciWorker I feel she’s just excited to talk about what she does, and she’s saying valuable stuff so makes an interesting video

      No. Never. If they ask you for money, it’s a scam.
