hey what's up guys welcome back to my channel if you guys are checking me out
for the very first time definitely want to consider subscribing I make awesome
videos in a weekly basis that you guys are going to love alright so a lot of
talent scouts especially now during the lockdown are unable to do their jobs
efficiently so what they're doing now is looking at online strategies on how they
can scout models and one of the best ways to scout models online is through
social media now if you have instagram and you're not yet on tik-tok don't
panic instagram is still a great way to get discovered
but now modeling agencies are now expanding their efforts into tik-tok and
that's what we're going to talk about in this video alright so in this video it
is now time to talk about Tik Tok yes tick tock modeling agencies and talent
scouts are now moving their strategies from scouting on instagram - now scout
in on tick tock now if you're still on instagram you don't have to take talk
not to worry Instagram is still a great way to get discovered
but what modern agencies are doing now is that they're trying to reach a
younger demographic if you will children I'm sure you guys have seen all the
viral tick tock videos - fun dances on all that tick tock is not just for viral
videos it's also a great way for models to post your runway walks post their
videos so that that way they can get scouted or get seen by clients so why
Tik Tok instead of Instagram now Instagram is still a great way as I said
to get discovered however the demographic on Instagram is
now a little bit more older and tick tock has the ideal demographic to be a
model so just to give you guys some perspective 69% of Tik-Tok users
are between the ages of 13 to 24 now this is the ideal age range to start a
modeling career or to get scouted not to mention Tik Tok is growing really fast
and a lot of these younger demographics are moving away from Instagram and into
tik-tok where they're posting more content so brands clients and talent
scouts they're all getting on tik-tok to scout these models and to find out who
the influences are on that platform so again one differentiation is
that tik-tok is primarily videos and when you're posting videos you can't
read touch videos the same way you retouch images so these talent scouts
get to see a real authentic representation of what a model actually
looks like unless you have tons of filters on that video then that
statement doesn't apply alright so let's get to the main point of the video how
do you get scouted by IMG and other talent scouts on tik-tok so here's the
deal so IMG has a scouting units called we
love your jeans and if you guys have watched my other videos I've talked
about them in previous videos and also posted some hashtags and some accounts
that you can tag and now I'm doing the same for tik-tok so if you look on the
link in the description box there's a link on my website that has all of the
accounts and all the hashtags that you need to use to get scouted by IMG
scouting team a couple of very important tips I've seen a lot of people on
Instagram misuse these hashtags and accounts that they tagged I've seen
people tagged up to 50 accounts on one post and usually these posts are heavily
retouched or over stylized so again I'd like to remind you guys to use these
hashtags and accounts wisely because an agency might see them and they might
block you if they feel like it's spam or they might just ignore you and then you
lose out on your chance of being scouted a couple more important tips for take
talk is that when you're tagging these accounts try to tag them on your runway
walk try to tag them on your video selfies or video portraits if you will
you also want to include your height in your bio because that Held's a talent
scout know if you meet their requirements it would also be helpful to
include your age as well if you will but that's not necessary
so again I hope you guys use these very carefully you don't want to come across
as being a spammer if you guys have any questions hit me up if you guys like
this video learn anything new I appreciate a thumbs up in my next video
I'm gonna be talking about commercial modeling so stay tuned for that don't
