Maryam Zolghadr on the red carpet Cannes

You may be required to walk on a runway, pose for photographs or appear in short video clips such as advertisements or music videos. Models are often called to a variety of locations to carry out their work and travelling is a common demand of the role.

Female models also earn significantly more than their male counterparts within the modelling industry, as there is typically greater competition for female modelling roles.
