FAQ

 

  1. How many potential models participate in a FMI Live Model Showcase? It depends on how many people we find that have true potential to be a model. Our attendance is usually smaller than other companies since we are highly selective.
  2. How do I buy my tickets and my hotel? After you have been scouted you can either register online or call or email us and we will take your payment for our Live Model Showcase. To get the special hotel rates, please go to the attend page of our website and link directly to the Dolphin Resort to make your reservation and receive the special $135 room rate. If you wish to purchase extra guest tickets just let us know. You will receive a Confirmation package in the mail 3 to 4 weeks after payment is received.
  3. What do I get when I purchase an FMI Live Model Showcase Package? Our Live Model Showcase Package includes two (2) Entrance Tickets (one for a Participant and one Guest) plus one (1) Numbered Badge that entitles the model to participate in the Live Model Runway in front of the agency directors. You will receive your Entrance Tickets in the mail and your Numbered Badge at the event sign in. You may bring additional guests for $95.00 per ticket. All guests and parents are encouraged to attend all the events, including the parties, runway clinic and information session with the agency directors.
  4. Is the Live Model Showcase a model competition? No. The Live Model Showcase is not a contest or a competition. Everyone who attends our event is there because we consider they have real potential to be signed by an agency. We look to boost participant's self-esteem and improve the self confidence by the education they will receive in the event and by knowing they have been hand picked by some of the most selective scouts in the nation.
  5. Should my parents attend the FMI Live Model Showcase? We absolutely encourage all parents and family members to come to our showcase. Parents will learn all the ins-and-outs of the modeling industry and have a better understanding in how to help their child achieve success as a model.
  6. What happens after the FMI Live Model Showcase? Our first priority after our event is to help the attendees that received call-backs from the agency directors complete their process of getting signed to the agency that best fits their lifestyle and priorities. If you received a call-back and an agency is interested in you, we will make sure that you are placed with the right agency.
