Fitness modeling agencies for activewear brands and sports shoots
Brands searching for fitness modeling agencies need more than a good look. They need adults who can hold a plank for the tenth take, run the same sprint again in good form and know their own limits. ModelContracts lets you cast fitness models and athletes, write the physical demands into the brief and book each person on a contract that covers hours, breaks, overtime and the model release.
Fitness shoots brands book
Fitness imagery has to look real, because the audience trains and spots fake form at once. Most briefs combine studio product shots with action scenes.
- 01 Activewear and sports apparel for product pages and lookbooks
- 02 Gym, studio and outdoor training scenes for campaigns
- 03 Supplement and nutrition packaging and ads
- 04 App, equipment and wearable product imagery
- 05 Short training clips for social and paid placements
Cast for the movement, not only the look
Write the actual movements in the casting: yoga poses, lifts, running, cycling, boxing or mobility work. Ask for experience with that discipline and current digitals. Activewear product pages run like our ecommerce models castings, and lifestyle ads with people working out at home follow the commercial modeling agency flow. Size inclusive activewear lines also cast through plus size modeling agencies.
- Discipline and experience listed in the brief
- Filters for city, height, measurements and sizes
- Several roles in one casting for group class scenes
Safety on a fitness set
Repeated takes of jumps and lifts tire people quickly, and a tired model gets hurt. Put the physical plan in the casting so models apply knowing what the day requires, and keep breaks in the schedule. The booking agreement records hours, overtime and cancellation terms, and the brief records warm up time, surfaces, equipment and any heights or outdoor conditions. A model can decline any movement they consider unsafe.
- 01 Warm up time and breaks written into the schedule
- 02 Equipment and surfaces described in the brief
- 03 Water, shade and changing space noted for outdoor shoots
- 04 Model may stop a movement that feels unsafe
How a fitness booking runs
Post a model casting, shortlist applicants, compare digitals and send offers with your rate and hours. When the model accepts, a modeling contract is generated with the usage rider and model release. After the shoot you confirm hours, including any overtime, and release payment. The four steps are explained on how it works.
Usage rights for activewear campaigns
Fitness images often run in several places at once: product pages, social, paid ads and in store displays. Choose every media you need before sending the offer, with a term (6, 12 or 24 months, or perpetual) and a territory (US, North America or worldwide). If the shoot is for a supplement or equipment brand, check that paid ads and packaging fall under the media you selected, and talk to your own attorney about product claims in ads.
Clear agency fee on every booking
You set each model's rate. The agency fee depends on your plan and is added to that rate: Starter carries 20 percent, Studio 15, Agency 12 and Enterprise 10. The fee and the total appear on the offer before you send it. See all plans on pricing.
Adults only, verified before the first casting
Every fitness model on ModelContracts is 18 or older with age and ID verified. Brand accounts are verified, content stays fashion and commercial, and models never pay any fee. Trainers and athletes who want bookings can apply as a model. More on safety.
FAQ
Can I book personal trainers and athletes, not only models?
Yes. Any adult who passes age and ID verification can apply. Ask for the discipline and experience you need in the casting.
How do I handle a model who gets tired or injured on set?
Plan breaks, describe the movements in the brief and let the model stop any movement they consider unsafe. Cancellation and overtime terms in the contract cover changes to the day.
Which usage do supplement brands need?
Usually web, social and paid ads, sometimes packaging and print. Choose every media in the usage rider before you send the offer.
