Review of Red model management - red nyc

So I just felt like I personally need to do this. Because preconceived notions gave me a bad impression and this agency really doesn t deserve that. Since last fall, I ve been interested in RED. I wasnt looking around for an agency that would take me but for an agency that I could work towards as well. Like a goal agency. I tried a few times and wasn t successful but I never gave up. Red has always had some really concrete faces and they also build a lot of great models. As I was doing my research, I obviously came across the reviews here because one of my model friends told me to look the reviews up. The negative reviews only bothered me because I am a dark skinned black girl and in this industry you can be casted away or simply just go unnoticed. Going into offices had always been a weird experience for me. As well as I carry myself, I m never really welcomed with a smile and reading these reviews made me feel like going into the office would be just another not so great experience. I went in and I was greeted by just the nicest girl and a freaking puppy! I didn t feel the weight of the room at all. I felt so comfortable before I even got to speak with an agent. The agent I spoke with sat me down and asked about ME. Which is rare, I had the opportunity to talk about myself and my goals and my career and I ve never done that at an agency office before. I just felt like something positive needed to come up on this page. I feel like regardless of whether the reach out to me or not this was just a good experience for me to have as a young model. It was really encouraging, I even forgot my swimsuit bottom and was still comfortable enough in the office to offer to take my swim headshots in my underwear LOL. Long story short, Red does an amazing job catering to potential models. I m so happy that i was able to get such a positive experience from one of my dream agencies. I feel like I can walk into any agency and be okay now.
