Casting Hamburg: 7th May – CM Studio Gosee: Girl, Boy, Diverse!

Hamburg, May 7 – one day, two shootings, a real chance. CM Models opens the studio doors at Gosee Studio and is looking for new faces: Girls, Boys, and Diverse individuals who are ready to take the next step in the fashion world. Those who have always wanted to know what a professional casting really means will get a direct, honest, and above all inspiring answer here – live on site.

What happens at Gosee Studio on May 7

The day at CM Studio Gosee is no ordinary casting appointment. It combines two high-profile productions under one roof – and that’s exactly what makes it so special for everyone who is taking their first steps as a model. On one side, the current New Faces from Hamburg are cast and photographed by one of the agency’s favorite photographers. On the other side, the cover of issue #22 of the fashion magazine FIV is created – with one of Germany’s most followed TikTok stars in front of the camera.

Experiencing the energy level of such a production day is invaluable for aspiring models. You see how a professional set works, how lighting is set up, how communication between photographer, stylist, and model takes place – and you’re right in the middle of it, not just watching from the sidelines. Anyone who wants to apply to a model agency in Hamburg gets a real insight into the daily business on this day.

The FIV Magazin Cover Shoot

FIV Magazin is one of the best-known German fashion magazines in the digital space. Issue #22 will be designed with a TikTok face who brings millions of followers – this means maximum professionalism at every level for the shoot. Anyone who is in the studio on that day gets a firsthand look at how a professional shoot for the model portfolio is prepared and executed. This is pure insider knowledge.

New Faces Shoot with Agency Photographer

At the same time, the new Hamburg faces of the agency are cast and photographed on site immediately. This means: application photos are created directly in the context of real agency work. For everyone who wants to know how to properly prepare for a casting, it’s a masterclass in practice.


Who can apply – Girl, Boy, Diverse

CM Models consciously seeks broad diversity. The casting is open to all genders and all looks – and this is not a marketing promise, but lived agency policy. Whether classic editorial face, streetwear type or unique niche look: whoever has an interesting appearance and is willing to learn has real chances.

Minimum height and measurements – what really counts

Many potential applicants fail mentally when it comes to the question of body measurements. However, the requirements are more diverse than often thought. Whoever knows the classic model measurements and requirements knows that there are different categories. The criteria for high-fashion jobs are different from those for commercial or curvy modelling. Also find out about the minimum height at modelling agencies – and which modelling agencies without a minimum height operate.

Those who want to start in the curvy area will also find a home at CM Models. As a curvy model, there are more opportunities than ever today – from magazine photo shoots to large campaigns by international brands.

Without classic measurements: Plus Size and Large Sizes

The segment of plus-size models is continuously growing. CM Models reflects this market and is actively looking for faces beyond the classic sizes 34/36. If you fit into this category and have always known that you belong in front of the camera – this day is your chance.

  • Open to all genders
  • Girls, Boys and Diverse are welcome
  • Various categories: Editorial, Curvy, Commercial
  • No age discrimination for New Faces
  • Naturalness and personality decide

How to prepare optimally

The Perfect Casting Checklist

  • ☐ Submit your application online in advance
  • ☐ Prepare current, natural photos
  • ☐ Know your measurements: height, clothing size, shoe size
  • ☐ Clothing: Clean, body-conscious, no prints
  • ☐ Hair: Loose or naturally tied
  • ☐ Make-up: Minimal to none (Natural Look)
  • ☐ Punctuality – better 15 minutes early

Why a casting at CM Models is different

CM Models belongs to the agencies that work transparently and fairly. A casting at CM Models means: no hidden costs, no advance fees, no empty promises. Anyone who wants to know whether an agency is legitimate should know the criteria of a reputable model agency – and CM Models meets them. For orientation, it’s also worth taking a look at the Top 10 Model Agencies in the German-speaking region.

Another important point: model agencies that ask for money are generally a warning sign. At CM Models, the principle applies: model agency without fees – earning comes through work, not through advance payments.

What can happen after the casting

Whoever is selected starts directly in the agency’s New-Faces-Pool. This means access to real jobs – from local campaigns over magazine photo shoots to first steps on the runway and catwalk. For exceptional talents, international markets also open up: whether it’s the Model agency Berlin, Become a model in Frankfurt, Become a model in London or Become a model in New York – the journey often begins with a single day like this one.

Who is also considering modeling part-time will get realistic assessments from CM Models on how this can be combined with school, studies, or a job. And whoever still doesn’t know what a model earns should definitely inform themselves beforehand – transparency is everything here.

  • Entry into the New-Faces-Pool possible
  • Immediate shooting experience on the same day
  • Access to national and international jobs
  • Personal feedback from the agency team
  • Netzwerkkontakte aus der Industrie

Hamburg as a Model Location and What It Means for Your Career

Hamburg is one of the most important fashion and media locations in Germany. Those who start here benefit from a vibrant creative scene, strong advertising clients, and an established agency landscape. The city has access to the Berlin Fashion Week and is also a springboard for the Big 4 Fashion Weeks worldwide – from the New York Fashion Week through the Milan Fashion Week and the Paris Fashion Week to the London Fashion Week.

The connection to the German creative scene should not be underestimated. German fashion designers are specifically looking for fresh faces from Hamburg – and a good casting at CM Models can open exactly these doors. Those who know how to correctly contact a model agency have an advantage over the competition from the start.


Frequently Asked Questions About the Casting on May 7th

Do I need to register in advance or can I just show up?

Pre-registration is strongly recommended so the team can plan the day optimally. You can apply directly via the CM Models application page. A short-term on-site presentation is also possible to a limited extent, but without pre-registration there is no guarantee of a time slot.

What photos should I bring?

It’s best to bring current, natural photos – no professional studio is necessary. It’s important that your face is clearly visible, once frontally and once sideways. Anyone who already has a model portfolio for the casting should bring it along. Smartphone photos of good quality are completely sufficient for the first impression.

Are there any costs for the casting or the photoshoots?

No. CM Models operates on the principle of a model agency without fees. The casting itself is free of charge, and the photoshoots for the New-Faces-Pool are also not tied to advance payments. Anyone who is still unsure should know the characteristics of a reputable model agency before signing.

What happens if I don’t have classic model measurements?

This is not an exclusion criterion. CM Models consciously searches for diverse looks and categories. Anyone who sees themselves as a Curvy Model, as a model in larger sizes or in another niche is explicitly invited to apply. The requirements for modeling are broader than ever – what matters most is personality, presence, and the willingness to learn.
