Yes, as long as they have a teen or child modeling division.
"Real people" modeling agencies tend to accept a wide number of people regardless of height, weight and age. Many print agencies also fall under this category but it depends on the market/location.
I don't believe there are any modeling agencies out in Peterborough, but there is an external link to modeling agencies in the Ontario area listed under Sources and Related Links. If you're looking for modeling work, it may be difficult to freelance there. Having an agency will help increase your chances of finding modeling work.
If you are under 5'7" then you will want to look into commercial/print agencies. The height range is from 5'5"-5'7". Any shorter and you will be looking into petite modeling, which does not have a demand or market so you will have a more difficult time finding a modeling agency with a petite division.
As a model, yes. Modeling agencies represent models as young as babies. To be an actual employee of a modeling agency, you can be under 18 but must have a work permit. The minimum age for employees to work at a place like an agency is different from state to state.
This describes certain times and days of the week that modeling agencies allow anyone to come in and interview with them without the need for an appointment (if you are under 18 then you will need to bring a parent or guardian with you). Not all modeling agencies offer open calls--also known as open casting calls. This is another way that agencies find new models. Most agencies list their information on open calls on their websites as well as what to bring.
You can only get a modeling job if you are signed to a modeling agency. Look up modeling agencies within a 2 hour's drive of where you live and visit their websites to see what the requirements are and what photos you should submit. You can also do freelance modeling, which means you act as your own agency and find yourself work. However, this is not recommended for those that are under age. Sticking with a modeling agency and having a contract is the best way to book modeling jobs.
Most definitely. Models age 25 and older fall under the category of "lifestyle modeling," which is a sub-category of commercial/print modeling. Many agencies use these two terms interchangeably, however.
Doing lip modeling falls under the category of parts modeling. In order to pursue this type of modeling seriously you will want to have an agency representing you. While not all agencies have a parts modeling division, there are a decent amount that do. You will have to submit your snapshots of the body part(s) you want to model and if the agency feels they can market you can get you work, they will sign you.
Leg modeling falls under the category of Parts Modeling. These models are used specifically according to what body part a client needs. Parts models often model hands, legs, feet, neck, ears, etc. The best way to pursue this type of modeling is to find agency representation with a modeling agency that either specializes in parts models or has its own parts model division. Not all modeling agencies work with parts models. There is one well known parts modeling agencies in America, which is called Parts Models and is located in New York (www.partsmodels.com).
Unfortunately, there is no market demand for male models under 5'10". There is no petite modeling for men, either. The only way to do any type of modeling is through freelance, which means that you work as a model without an agency and act as your own booking agent. There are hardly any modeling agencies that will sign on a 5'7" male, unless you are a teen.
Unfortunately, there is no market demand for male models under 5'10" in the fashion and runway niche. There is no petite modeling for men, either. The only way to do any type of modeling is by submitting to agencies that represent male commercial/print models. This type of modeling is very open to height, age and size. Male models don't necessarily have to be tall like fashion models and can be used for a number of print modeling assignments.
I am not sure what you mean by "scene." If you are referring to "scene" as in the whole "emo" look, that type of modeling falls under alternative and to my knowledge there aren't any modeling agencies that specialize in alternative models. Maybe some online ones. Alternative models tend to be freelance and find their own work and the more well known they become--usually through the Internet--the more opportunities they are given.
