Casting commercial models
Commercial models are the faces customers trust — TV and digital ads, catalogue, e-commerce, in-store and social campaigns. Casting is about relatability, not runway stats, so you'll find a wide range of ages and looks here. Brands of every size can browse and contact commercial models free.
Common questions
What does a commercial model booking include?
Usually a shoot day (or half day) plus usage — the right to use the images or footage for a set period and territory. State the usage in your enquiry so the model can quote accurately.
How quickly can I cast a commercial model in South Africa?
Most models reply to enquiries within a working day. For a straightforward catalogue or e-commerce shoot, a week's notice is often enough; TV commercial dates book out faster.
Do commercial models work with small brands?
Yes — many VELA models build their books on small and medium brand work. Day rates are on each profile and confirmed directly with the model.
