Child Modelling AUGUST 2006

[mrratty]

Hello...

thanks mimi, will phone kids and ask what the companys name is mon morning, im really excited!!!

thanks little madam- do you think that was the easist way to get there?

good luck with your castings tommorow (wish it was me!)

strawb- have a good time at chessington

elles mum did u get my email x just started working

Julie, think so, I would ring them and ask for directions, they will be happy to do that. I went for the photoshoot, so you may need a different entrance or something.

Good luck Elle and Marymay and everyone else with a casting...we are having the day in London with DS and a friend, so any ideas for child friendly fun things????

MIMI - yes i got your pic it was really nice!!

littlemadam........The Natural History Museum and the Science Museum are always great for kids......and they are free!!! Mine have been several times and still enjoy a trip back there when we can fit it in!

Good Luck for all the castings on Monday!! Especially those of you with a possible overseas filmed ad at the end of it. Those are always really exciting! Sort of wonder if we'd have had a call for this one had we not a holiday starting Sunday next week!!

Ellesmum........enjoy the first casting! Just have lots of fun. We always treat our trips to London as an adventure as you never quite know where they might lead you!

Thanks Ragamuffin, will go and get the map now!! Have a great holiday, where are you going?? we can't get away this Summer because of DH work commitments, but hoping to visit mum and dad in Oz for Christmas, Chrimbo breakfast barbie anyone!! Just that 24 hour flight...

littlemadam.........off to France for 2 weeks!!! Our first summer holiday in 6yrs!! Normally DH can't spare the time either. I have a sister in OZ....recently emimigrated and married now living in Brisbane. Oh for a barbie at Christmas.......as a S.Afican........quite the norm for us!!

Both museums close to each other. Get off tube at South Kensington......and there are directions from tube station with underground walkways.....very easy to find!

HI ALL,

Good Luck for any LO's with castings this week

Havnt posted for a few days, took DD to the JL casting on Fri which was a complete waste of time as they didnt even have her sized clothing (12-18), so she got squeezed into a 9-12 months.

We should find out tomorrow if she got it or not as they were shooting on Tuesday, but I dont hold out much hope.

Still havnt heard anymore about the C&G job, but we are going to get the license on Wednesday, havnt had DD pics done yet though, so I will have to take her tomorrow.

To all of those that I met today, it was great to meet you all at long last and put a face to the names. We will have to do it again soon

Take Care xXx

So what did I miss!!!!!!?????? Super castings? Jobs? Auditions?????

Got back late last night from France. Weather good. Food fab. Seriously tired. DD didn't sleep well whilst there so therefore neither did I.

DS had a sniff of a possible audition for a French meat commercial but didn't hear back from B&B so that's out. Had quite a shock when DS's invoice from the E4 ident came thru - MUCH less than anticipated. I guess they don't do "buy outs" for things like that. Drat. He wanted to buy an electric train set with the proceeds of that job.

DD is in front of the "electronic babysitter" and I need to get my act together and start getting things put away. When I have some time 2nite, I'll pop on and see what has been going on!

2manypimms - glad you had a nice time

ellesmum- spoke to b and b today and the modelbook at approx £120 is purely optional and you don't have to go in it if you go with them. the photos they use on their website if accepted is purely the snapshots took at the initial assesment so as far as I am concerned if they say yes to my ds it wont cost me anything and the website charge is took from his first job so all in all think they are a good package. have you paid for a photoshoot or anything with kl?
let us know how the casting went today

Hi hope you all had a good weekend all good luck with casting and jobs
i cant belive its raining its my wedding anniversary it never rains today ! off to cornwall saturday so i hope the sun comes back out !

Julie4travel- i got the book i havent had time to read it all yet but it looks very good loads of good info and tips ill tell you more when i get a chance to read it properly i know they do have it in the libraries if thats any good to you

can i ask i was looking back over the thread and under my name i saw message delleted ? did i say something wrong or not allowed ? why do they get deletted ?

Hi Lindac, did you mention a certain author who we're not allowed to talk about any more? ( see bottom of thread)I'm just guessing if maybe they deleted all posts that mention her? Don't know if you did or not its just a suggestion as to why its gone.

hello all.
YummyMummy21- its nice to meet you on sunday and its shamed that we had to leave early.

went to the casting this morning, we were the first one to arrive, but, we let the other kid went first. he is a 3 yrs old boy from norrie carr, very co-operated. he did whatever they asked him to do.. excellent.

his mum never heard of MOT when i told her ds is with them!

ds didnt even smile or stand still!! nevermind!! he needs more pratice!!

no i didnt never heard of her! did about anouther but not bad things !
as long as i didnt offend anybody i dont mind x

opps sorry god how many times did i post that hahaha

Wonder why it went then? Maybe it was a mistake. Maybe email mumsnet and they might be able to tell you.

lindic- great the book looks good. didn't want to spend out until I new if it was alright

when r u going back to see carole? is your dd on her books and website? I see loads of new girls have joined her there are pages of them on her web. fingers crossed for lots of work for us

lindic- sometimes people report unappropriate posts, we have had that before different people reporting others. Its mainly swearing etc and none of your posts have been like that so i wouldn't worry. was it on aug thread or julys?

was great to see you guys again .. eventho i had to leave early .. didn't get to meet you yummymummy, but maybe next time
tigeryuan, oh good luck to ds anyway

oh, and i kept telling my friend she should put her ds up for modelling . he's so cute. She has now, with KL and i got a text this morning to say he went to his first casting .. don't know what for tho

mythumbelinas - thanks!
remember that i asked my friend to join kl few months ago, she didnt do it in the end!!

hello everyone just got back from my daughters casting, she did really well, was smiling and jumping in front of the camera, they put a georgeous pink cashmere dress on her which looked so cute! there were lots of kids there from kids london and bruce and brown, there was 2 kids from urban ang. there wasnt many girls there elles age they were either babies or 4-5 year olds so that was promising. we went by car in the end and got there within an hour which was good. just need 2 wait 4 the outcome now but was a great experience!
