What should I do when looking for an event agency?
If you are wondering this, please read this article to the end!
Here are the most important things to consider when choosing an event agency!
In the first place, check the agency’s profile! And check if some of the following points may be right or may have occured already:
■Suspicious activities
■Troubles with paying employees’ remuneration
■Difference between the real job and the one you were told about
Then look for some more details:
■Check the firm’s corporate history! Some suspicious firms have already been in trouble, or have closed their doors after a court decision in the past…
■Choose a firm that has been doing this business for at least 10 years and that does not have any incident or bad reputation on the Internet!
■The firm should have a website and have the kind of work you want to do! This is also very important.
And finally, if you think: “I got interviewed and was accepted! But the job is not matching at all with what I thought.” “I got the job but the management is kind of awkward and there is no following-up.”
Then, it’s probably not a good place to work at…
But finally, after making a minutious selection, you will be able to see on the list some good places to give it a shot.

RECOMMENDATION #２
SOS Model Agency Founded in 1972, this is a stable modeling agency that has been in business for over 50 years.
RECOMMENDATION #３
Stadium Promotions Located in Esaka and established in 1983, this is a solid modeling firm with over 40 years of experience.
That’s all of for this time! Do you think you just found the right place for you?
One of the criteria for choosing an agency is that it is not a recently established company, but one that has a proven track record of success. A track record means the number of jobs they have done. It is important to know how many jobs the company has done, rather than a company that makes a profit by taking lesson fees from models.
One tip: Check the linked websites to see the number of jobs they have done. It is a good idea in order to see if there are jobs that you would like to do yourself if joining one of them…
Let’s introduce you some of the best agencies for hostesses and promotional models in this article.
But what is a promotional model or an event hostess in the first place?
Let us explain it that first!
In fact, there are various kinds of work that a promotional model can do. But there are two main types: _ Hostess / promotional model for an event _ Hostess / promotional model for a party
In the first case, the person hired contributes to represent a brand on a booth, and help making the promotion in different ways.
In the second case, she supports services at a party or banquet hall, by serving beverages and food for example.
Usually, the parties are 2 to 2.5 hours long, with a 3 to 3.5 hour commitment, including meeting & standby, meeting an hour before the show, getting together to do hair, changing into costume, and meeting & standby, although the guaranty varies from region to region. In Tokyo, the market rate is around 9,000 yen to 11,000 yen.
For the event side, depending on the exhibition or event, most of them have a full day commitment, such as 9:00 am to 5:00 pm or 10:00 am to 6:00 pm, but unlike a regular part-time job, you will most likely have a two-hour break. Duties will often include responses such as “reception”, “calling in customers”, “sampling”, “tasting”, and “taking surveys”. For those jobs, clients look for beautiful looking people between the ages of 18 and 30 who have completed training as service professionals. The remuneration is about 12,000 yen to 15,000 yen per day for 8 hours of work.
Now, we would like to introduce you to one of the most popular & reliable firms in this kind of companion industry.
Founded in 1997 in Osaka, Chat Noir Inc. is an internationally active firm with its headquarters in Tokyo and branch offices in Osaka and Los Angeles. The company has been in business for 26 years and is one of the top-ranked firms in the industry with over 1,500 employees. The company also has English and Chinese language staff, and interpreters. It is also recommended for those who aim to become narrators or announcers.
Recommendation #２
S.R Company This company focuses mainly on party promotional models, but can provide a wide range of services in Tokyo and has a full staff of personnel. They are often hired for New Year’s parties, year-end parties, corporate parties, etc.
Offices are located in Tokyo and Nagoya. Costumes can be provided, and personnel may be available for unique cosplay.
Understand better the job itself and the differences between both sub-categories?
Indeed, even if they are the same kind of agencies, all three agencies mentioned above have different specialties, characteristics, and way of working.
If you are interested in this business, I think you can find better work if you look for a firm that specializes in such an area.
In the industry, in general the work process is the same: A job request from a client arrives to the office → profile gathering & screening → selection & decision by the client.
Every office always creates a profile with your photo on it and the client will select the candidates based on this profile.
Therefore, even if you apply, you have to wait for the result of either acceptance or rejection. In short, it is a world where you are chosen by the client to get the job.
It is hard work, but it is also rewarding, and the pay is supposed to be better than other part-time jobs. Besides, many part-timers are students or single mothers because the jobs tend to be flexible.
Many event agencies are small companies, often started by experienced staff who have started their own companies.
And it would be easier to work with a company that has a manager who will manage the work properly and teach you the contents of the job and the hours of work in a gentle and polite way.
“I like to be in front of people!” “I am good at serving customers with a smile!” “I’m good at approaching people!” “I want to be involved in a variety of jobs, not just the same one every day!”
If you are such a person, we recommend you to give it a try as an event or party staff, hostess or promotional model then.
There are many modeling agencies in Japan, large and small.
I want to be a model, but I don’t know how to become one. I don’t know which agency to join… If you are not sure, we will introduce you to the most recommended agencies!
It depends on what kind of work you are looking for, but here is a good place to start!
RECOMMENDATION #１
If you are good at English or Chinese and your height is over 185cm for men and 175cm for women, you may have a potential to try modeling abroad! And with the recent depreciation of the yen, Japan has the lowest average annual income compared to other developed countries.
However, how do you approach the modeling business in other countries?
In fact, there are few agencies specialized in such a business. Yet, there is a model agency in Japan that has a global presence and that can support you!
The agency is getting pretty active in overseas expansion as you can see on Instagram.
Back in the days, the agency was founded in 1997 and was first established focusing on promotional models, event hostesses and narrators for event-related business.
RECOMMENDATION #２
BON IMAGE Founded in 1980, this is a very well-known agency in the industry. With many foreign models and a wide range of advertisements and shows, it can be said that they are a reliable agent.
RECOMMENDATION #３
OSCAR PROMOTION Oscar is an agency that has produced numerous celebrities ranging from models to celebrities to actresses. It is a good agency for teenagers, as I have the impression that they provide good education such as walking lessons and acting lessons.
RECOMMENDATION #４
SATORU JAPAN The name of the company is taken directly from the name of the representative. Like Chat Noir and Bon Image, this agency has also been taking its models abroad and has been using a wide variety of foreign talent.

RECOMMENDATION #８
NAME Management This company has branches in Tokyo, Osaka, and Nagoya. There are no famous models here, though there seem to be actresses as well as models. If you live in Nagoya or Osaka and want to challenge yourself in Tokyo, this might be another good place for you since they have a branch office there.
RECOMMENDATION #９
Star Ray Productions, Inc. Although it is more of a talent, if you want to become a talent or actress from modeling, you may want to try this agency.
RECOMMENDATION #１０
SOS Model Agency This agency has branches in Tokyo, Osaka, and Fukuoka, and has a 50-year history. They do not seem to have many famous models on their roster, but they do have a large number of members.
That’s all of for this time! Do you think you just found the right place for you?

Even if you want to try modeling abroad, you may feel uneasy. Our image of male and female models overseas is more “cool” than “cute” as in Japan.
To find out how you can become active in overseas modeling agencies, we would like to introduce three easy study methods that we recommend to those who are interested in doing so.
The first thing we recommend is to read books/books written by top fashion models. Models who are at the forefront of the world are overwhelmingly different from ordinary models in their mentality and mindset first of all. Their attitude in daily life, the way they keep their minds in order, their healthy diet…all of these things are on a different level from the average model. However, there are only a few books written by fashion models, and they are not easy to find.
Among them, I would like to recommend “The Law of Beauty (2020/3/12)” by Ai Tominaga.
In “The Law of Beauty,” Ai Tominaga, who is one of the world’s top models, introduces in detail in the following seven lessons the essential attitudes for models, such as “what top models have in common,” “how to eat beautifully,” and “self management to make dreams come true.
Although Ms. Tominaga is a female model, this book is also recommended for men who aspire to be international models, as it contains important points common to male models as well.
LESSON 1: What it takes to be beautiful LESSON 2: How to create an aura of beauty LESSON3: The Best Body Line LESSON 4: The Ultimate Beauty Time LESSON 5: Dietary Techniques to Become Beautiful from the Inside Out LESSON6: What is important for working women to shine LESSON7: Self-Management to Achieve Your Dreams
Before and after reading this book, your way of thinking as a model will change drastically. I recommend this book to all models, male or female.
Method #2 : Look at composites from overseas model agencies
A “composite” is a profile card containing multiple photos, which is indispensable for a model’s activities, and is sometimes referred to as a “comp card” overseas. Usually, overseas model agencies publish composites and works on their model introduction pages, and by looking at the photos, you can learn what kind of models are active locally and what kind of models are in demand.
Method #3: Watch Youtube videos of overseas fashion weeks
Many videos of overseas (New York, Paris, Milan, etc.) fashion weeks are available on Youtube. By watching such videos of fashion weeks, you will be able to get an image of overseas models. Here are some videos.
【WOMEN】CHANEL | Fall Winter 2022/2023 | Paris Fashion Week
【WOMEN】Ralph Lauren Fall/Winter 2022-2023
【MEN】Louis Vuitton Men’s Spring-Summer 2023 Show | LOUIS VUITTON
【MEN】The Dior Winter 2022-2023 Men’s Show
To conclude
We have compiled a list of study methods that we recommend for those who want to try their hand at modeling overseas.
It is important to first see with your own eyes and get an idea of what kind of mindset and attitude successful international models have as they tackle the job of modeling, and what kind of models are actually active overseas.
Nowadays, you can access a lot of information on the Internet and in books while you are in Japan, so please make the most of it.
It is very important to keep your body and mind in good shape while staying abroad. However, due to the unusual environment, there will be some people who will lose their lifestyle. Therefore, in this issue, we would like to introduce some tips for overseas models to keep both body and mind in good shape while working locally.
Barriers to Modeling Abroad
When modeling abroad, it is difficult to get used to living in a different environment than usual. The hotels and apartments you stay in, the stores you visit when you go out, the food you eat, and everything else will be different from your daily life. If this happens, you may find that your lifestyle is disrupted and your modeling activities are hindered, even though you have come all the way overseas to take on this challenge.
The biggest risk is a collapse of mind and body. Once you are swamped by a lifestyle breakdown, there is no easy way out. If you go to an audition, casting, or filming in an unhealthy state, you will not get good results. In the worst case scenario, you may end up “not getting any work at all and having to return home.
You will lose money and confidence… If you return to Japan without a job, you will only have to pay more money, and you may feel like “Oh… if this is the case, I should have never gone abroad. If you don’t get any work, you may lose confidence and think, “Maybe I’m not cut out to be a model…” and give up on your career as an international model.
How to take care of yourself to avoid falling into a negative state
To prevent this from happening, you need to take care of yourself on a daily basis.
What is the most effective way to take care of oneself in an unfamiliar environment?
Here are a few ways…
Care Method #1 : Go to a park and exercise Every country has parks, large and small. Try to get some physical exercise there. For example, just going for a light jog, stretching, or working out and sweating will make you feel more positive.
Care Method #2 : Enjoy the outdoors In addition to parks, there may be other places where you can enjoy the outdoors. For example, in the case of Hong Kong, hiking and mountain climbing are very popular. In some countries or regions, you may also be able to go to the beach and enjoy swimming.
Care Method #3 : Enjoy the country’s unique cuisine Enjoying a meal is also a good way to refresh yourself. Rather than staying in your room and eating the same food, try visiting different restaurants and enjoying meals that can only be enjoyed in that country. Just don’t overeat, so don’t forget to exercise and train. LOL!
Care Method #4 : Go to a training gym If you have some money to spare, it is a good idea to go to a local gym. If you go to a gym, you will find people training with you, which will help motivate you. The famous Anytime Fitness has locations all over the world (and of course in Japan as well), so if you can afford the time, we recommend signing up in Japan and entering a local gym.
Care Method #5 : Make friends with models It is also very important to make friends with models. If you are working alone, you may feel more anxious than necessary, but conversing with fellow models will free you from such anxieties. It is also a great way to learn English, which is a great advantage for those who are not good at English.
Care Method #6 : Be curious anyway In a new environment, it is important to be curious about everything around you. Try to enjoy everything: food, sightseeing, shopping, friendships, experiencing different cultures, and so on. If you enjoy the environment you are in, it will have a positive effect on your mental health, and you will achieve good results in auditions and photo shoots.
NG Behaviors International Models Should Not Do
NG Behavior #1 : Not going out The biggest NG behavior is to stay in your room all the time. If you are in Japan, you will have various plans for part-time jobs and private life, but overseas, you will have no plans except for filming and auditions. If you stay in your room, your mind and body will become dark, and this will affect your work as well.
NG Behavior #2 : Acting alone all the time It is not necessary to be with someone all the time, but try to interact with others locally as much as possible. Similar to “not going out,” the more time you spend alone, the less opportunity you have to vent your inner self, and this will show itself in your mood. Create a positive atmosphere by creating opportunities to free yourself to some extent.
NG Behavior #3: Repeating the same behavior every day Repeating the same behavior every day is also prohibited. Going to the same places, eating the same food, looking at the same information… Life becomes a rut, and the mind gradually becomes exhausted. Try to refresh your mind by experiencing new places, new food, and new information as much as possible!
NG Behavior #4 : Not exercising or training Not moving your body on a regular basis is another NG behavior. Try to go to parks or sports facilities to exercise and stretch your body. When your living environment changes, there is a risk that your body shape may change from your original shape, so you need to take better care of yourself than when you are in Japan.
As a conclusion
If you go to live abroad in an environment that is unusual and unfamiliar to you, there is a risk that your rhythm will be easily disrupted and your body and mind will be affected.
To avoid such a situation, it is important to be aware of self-care on a daily basis.
Keep your mind and body healthy and you will be successful in your life as an overseas model!
The biggest concern when trying international modeling is whether or not you will be successful? The biggest concern when trying to model abroad is whether or not you will succeed. When it comes to modeling, Europe is the place to be! However, the types of work and the size of the rewards differ from country to country.
In this article, we will introduce modeling in Hong Kong as an example.
Modeling in Hong Kong There are several characteristics of modeling in Hong Kong.
(1) Compensation One of the main characteristics of Hong Kong is that the remuneration for work is high, so much so that it is said to be “one order of magnitude higher than work in Japan. For this reason, models come from all over the world to stay in Hong Kong for several months and work as migrant workers. There are also models who succeed in getting work in Hong Kong and use the money to try their luck in European countries.
(2) Quality of photo shoots Along with the high remuneration, the quality of the shoots is also high. In Hong Kong, there is a strong image of spending a lot of money on each shoot, and the quality of the finished work is also high. Therefore, working in Hong Kong is an efficient way to build up a work record.
(3) Types of Work In Hong Kong, there is a lot of work mainly in the “financial” advertising field, such as banking, insurance, and real estate. Also, since there are many global companies in Hong Kong, the work track record of these companies is quite good. Therefore, Hong Kong is an attractive country for models who want to be successful as advertising models.
(4) Models who are active in Hong Kong Models working in Hong Kong are not only local models but also come from all over the world. For example, there are many Asian models from China, Korea, and Japan, as well as European models. You can interact and exchange information with models from all over the world, so it is an environment where you can grow both as a model and as a person.
(5) Amount of work Depending on the agency you belong to, you will have auditions called castings. In many cases, you may have two castings a day, or five or more a week. In Japan, some people only need to get in once a week, but in Hong Kong, you may have a much better chance of getting a job. Therefore, there are many models who get a lot of work and return home with more money than when they entered the country.
Advantages of Modeling in Hong Kong
Attractive point #1: Close to Japan First of all, it is very close to Japan. Airfare is currently around 50,000 yen as of November 2022, and travel time is only 3 to 4 hours, so the hurdle to travel is very low. It is easy to access not only Japan but also other Asian countries, so it is easy to go to another country from Hong Kong.
Attractive point #2: There are many locations where you can relax Hong Kong is famous for sightseeing, and there are many attractive spots where you can go on private tours. Casting day after day can be mentally exhausting, so it is important to take a break every once in a while. I would like to introduce more attractive spots in another article.
Attractive point #3: Relatively pro-Japanese& foreigners-friendly Hong Kong is famous for being relatively pro-Japanese. This makes the local people friendly to Japanese people and makes life easy for them. Other famous pro-Japanese countries include Taiwan, Thailand, and Singapore, so choosing such a country to model in may be an option.
Attractive point #4: Enjoyable dining One of the attractions of Hong Kong is that you can enjoy the food. While it is important not to eat too much in order to keep in shape, being able to enjoy gourmet food in between castings and photo shoots is one of the attractions of Hong Kong. If you don’t like the local food, don’t worry, there are plenty of Japanese & international restaurants in Hong Kong.
Attractive point #5: There are many places where you can exercise. After a meal, training and exercise are essential, and Hong Kong has many places where you can move your body. For example, there are many mountains where you can hike, a seaside promenade where you can go jogging, basketball courts, and many small parks. Hong Kong may have the image of being a “small country,” but there is no shortage of places to exercise and get moving.
Summary of model life in Hong Kong
In this article, we have introduced in detail the modeling lifestyle in Hong Kong. When it comes to modeling abroad, there are many countries to choose from, but trying it out in Hong Kong is one of the options.
If you are thinking, “I want to go abroad, but I don’t want to go too far!”, please consider trying Hong Kong.
If you are a model, you may have at one time or another wanted to try your hand overseas or work for an international modeling agency, let’s have a look at this article.
When we think of overseas, cities such as London, Paris, and Milan come to mind, but there are many countries and regions outside of these cities where you can try your hand as a model.
In this article, we will introduce the process of working with a modeling agency in Hong Kong.
Things you must first do to prepare before attempting international modeling
#1 : Passport
This seems obvious for many of you, but those who have no experience abroad often do not have a passport, so be sure to have your passport ready as soon as possible.
#2 : Creating a Composite (model portfolio)
This is also a must. A composite is a profile photo book consisting of one main photo and four to nine sub photos, so to speak, that serves as a “model’s business card. It is also sometimes referred to as a “comp card” overseas.
In many cases these days, the photos you post on Instagram are also important, so be sure to scrutinize the photos you post on Instagram and make sure they are ready to use as a composite as well.
(1) Funds for covering overseas expenses
There is no better way to live on the outside than to have funds for your activities. In addition to hotel, apartment, and food expenses, you may need to buy clothes for auditions or get a haircut.
However, in Hong Kong, some agencies give models an advance allowance called “pocket money. The market rate is usually around 500 to 1,000 HKD (8,000 to 17,000 Yen) per week.
If you cut back on food and other expenses, you can make a living, and if you get a job in the area, you can earn a large amount of money.
(2) English conversation at the junior high school level
Although it is not impossible to speak English, we do not recommend that you give up going abroad because you do not speak English.
If you are an attractive model, you can get a job even if you do not speak English fluently. Also, they will speak to you according to your language level to some extent, so it will not hinder your work.
In fact, it is much more important to gain experience abroad so that you can hone your English skills and become comfortable speaking English with people from other countries.
Attractiveness of working for a modeling agency in Hong Kong
Attraction #1 : The quality of work is high! The quality of work in Hong Kong is far higher than in Japan. They spend a good amount of money on the budget spent on the shoot and on the model’s costume and makeup. This creates a virtuous cycle that makes it easier to get new work because the quality of the finished photos is high and can be used as composite photos.
Attractive point #2 : Higher budgets (remuneration)! Compared to Japan, the remuneration for modeling work in Hong Kong is much higher. It is said that “one digit is different” or “one zero is more,” and that work at the tens of thousands of yen level in Japan can pay hundreds of thousands of yen in Hong Kong. For this reason, models from all over the world come to Hong Kong to “dekasegi” for short periods of time, from 3 months to 1 year. The money saved there may be enough to challenge other Asian countries or even Europe.
Attractiveness #3 : Foreigners-friendly and multinational! This is somewhat unrelated to modeling, but Hong Kong tends to be kind to Japanese & international people in general. This makes it relatively easy to live in Hong Kong, not only for modeling, but also for everyday life. Also, Hong Kong is a multinational country, so people come from all over the world, not just from Asia. Therefore, it is a big advantage to be able to interact with models from various countries and make friends with them.
Tips for working as a model in Hong Kong
Point #1 : Interact and connect with various models! In Hong Kong, you will have to participate in auditions called “castings” to get work. In Hong Kong, you will attend auditions called “castings” and try to get work, but it is also recommended that you make contacts with other models as well. The reason for this is that you will not know many people abroad, so you will spend a lot of time alone. If this happens, you may lose your energy, and if you do not get work again, you may feel more depressed than necessary. To avoid this, make sure you have a few more modeling friends. Eating meals together or going on leisure activities can be a refreshing change of pace. You will also be able to exchange meaningful work information.
Point #2 : Training every day! There are many fitness gyms in Hong Kong. Among them, there are many “Anytime Fitness,” which is famous in Japan, and we recommend that you train there regularly. Many models in Hong Kong (especially Asian models) work out on a regular basis and have a strong presence at auditions because of their large muscle mass. Therefore, if they have little muscle mass, they may not be able to show their presence and may not be able to get work. On the other hand, training on a regular basis and having your body made up will definitely give you confidence and an advantage at auditions. We recommend that you train regularly with your fellow models.
Point #3 : Enjoy Hong Kong! Although you are only going abroad to work as a model, we recommend that you do some sightseeing and have a change of scenery. Almost without exception, models who are active are very curious. We recommend that you take an interest in various places, nature, stores, and experiences on a regular basis, and experience all the pleasures of Hong Kong during your stay. If you stay alone in your hotel or apartment, you will inevitably feel down. So, take in the fresh air and be on the offensive to make the most of your model life in Hong Kong.
In conclusion
For models who want to try overseas, going to Hong Kong now is a great opportunity. There are many models who have given up trying to go abroad because of Corona.
In this sense, there are few rivals, so it is relatively easy to get a job if you try going abroad now. Once the Corona scandal is over and anyone can go abroad, you will be surrounded by rivals, and it will be difficult to join an overseas office. Now is always the time to take a chance, so take the challenge as soon as you think of it.
If you are a model who wants to join an overseas office or take on an overseas challenge, please do not hesitate to contact Chat Noir. We will help you to advance to an overseas office through a free consultation.
There are many modeling agencies in Hong Kong, and many international models are active in the city.
In particular, there are many Asian models from Japan, Korea, Thailand, and other Asian countries, as well as models from European countries such as Russia, Spain, and Poland.
So in this issue, we would like to introduce a few modeling agencies that have a large number of international models working with them.
1.QUEST
QUEST is one of the largest modeling agencies in Hong Kong. It is believed to have the largest number of castings (auditions), and has a large number of local models as well as international models.
The main office is located in Wan Chai, in Hong Kong Island, but the firm also has a branch in Guangzhou, China, which is not far from Hong Kong.
PRIMO is one of the largest agencies in Hong Kong along with QUEST.
Originally from the Elite Model group, one of the world’s largest modeling agencies, PRIMO has a wealth of casting projects too.
Because the agency actively scouts for international models, it has a large number of international models, and in particular, many Asian models, such as Korean and Japanese, are members.
The office is conveniently located in Sheung Wan, on Hong Kong Island.
WE MANAGEMENT is a relatively new model agency, actively scouting for international models. The agency has a well-known BOOKER service in Hong Kong, and also holds castings for major companies’ advertisements and fashion brands.
It is distinctive for its extensive support for models, with a significant number of models from not only Asia, but also Europe.
The office is located between Sheung Wan and Sai Ying Pun on Hong Kong Island, overlooking the sea.
There are many modeling agencies in Hong Kong where Japanese models are active, and opportunities are rolling in. Hong Kong is also one of the pro-Japan countries, making it an easy place for Japanese to work.
Therefore, if you would like to challenge abroad but still have concerns, Chat Noir can support you in every way possible. Not limited to Hong Kong, we can support you to challenge in many places, such as Singapore, Taiwan, and even Europe or the U.S.

Regarding the venue, it will be held at Makuhari Messe International Exhibition Halls 1-8 and the International Conference Hall (Business Meeting Area).
In addition to major game makers, manufacturers of VR goggles such as Meta Quest and Pico Technology Japan, communication tools and metaverse platforms such as Discord and Cluster will also have booths.
However, in order to limit the number of people in the venue from the viewpoint of preventing the spread of the new coronavirus, tickets for the general public will be sold in a predetermined number each day, and only in advance online.
No same-day tickets will be sold at the venue.
Laslty, on the afternoon of September 16, the second Business Day, general visitors are allowed to enter the venue, which may be a good spot since it is a workday comparatively speaking.
We hope anyway that you will be able to come and enjoy this incredible exhibition!
