"Have you ever dreamed of getting your son into modeling? I bet you've been dreaming ever since he's been born. Well, you might want to check with him before making your dream a reality. Hi, my name's Jena Hartman, owner of PromoZone Live, and this is my son, Javen. We're here in Tampa, Florida. We want to give you a few key steps on how to get your son into modeling like I did with Javen. You ready, buddy? Yeah. We are. First thing is first, you want to contact local agencies like we did with Javen. you want to contact them and set up a meeting, a time for them to see your child, or son's personality on camera and off camera. You want to take a long a head shot and body shot, so they can have it on file, along with other their contact information. And stats. Some websites that you can check out would be one model place dot com, as well as craig's list dot com. To get work besides going through an agency, you have the option of helping your son independently. If you're going to be looking for a portfolio, or a cop card, you don't need that right away, because when they're just starting, you want to just have the regular head shot and body shot to take on in there. And along the way, you can get the comcard, and portfolio, but that's a little bit more experience and a little bit more time in the industry as it's very competitive. So you want to make sure you're always prompt, which means obviously on time, and that you have a smiling face, you and your son. So, you having a good time? My name is Jena Hartman, owner of PromoZone Live, and baby Javen, here in Tampa, Florida, and that was how can my son get into modeling."
