Look-a-Like Modelling
A Look-a-like is someone who bears a remarkable resemblance to someone in the public eye, whether they be a celebrity, politician or even a member of the royal family! Working in look-a-like modelling is a unique way of working in the modelling industry, as you are not trying to portray your individual style or even a range of looks but as the person that you resemble. Look-a-likes Modelling is popular in the Exhibition and Promotional Modelling with like-a-likes used by Party Entertainers who use Hollywood lookalikes to meet n greet guests at the start of a party or surprise guests by making an entrance at an office party perhaps. Christmas events often use celebrity look-a-likes to entertain party goers who like to see a famous double of their favourite sports star or pop star.
Look-a-like modelling can provide a career for the few lucky models, but to make money you do need to have an exceptional resemblance to a well known person. There is also a lot of work for Look-a-likes outside of modelling, for example in television work and events. There are in fact national and even global events that have look-a-likes competing to win the title of 'Top Look-a-like' which does provide travel opportunities for those involved in this type of modelling. A Modelling Portfolio is an important asset to have a a look-a-like. Ensure that it is created with the help of professional photographers to have a true range of shots to demonstrate your resemblance and work with professional creatives to perfect your looks.
