Nouvelle Ère
Works with: women, men
Nouvelle Ère is a modeling agency based in Paris, France, founded in 1999. It holds the state licence required to place models in its country and is a member of SYNAM.
Nouvelle Ère in its own words
Founded in 2003 by Bérengère Pajolec, Nouvelle Ère represents actors, models and artists of every background. In search of diversity, charisma and modernity, we continually enrich our roster.
How to apply to Nouvelle Ère
- Apply through the agency's website (see the link above): most agencies have a "become a model" page with a form or an e-mail address. Prepare 4–6 unretouched digitals and your measurements.
- Check its website or Instagram for open-call days; if none are listed, apply online.
- If you are represented by a mother agency, let it make the introduction – that is how most placements abroad start.
- Models from abroad can apply; a work permit is arranged by the agency once a placement is agreed.
- Never pay to apply. A licensed agency earns a commission on your work, nothing upfront.

What you need before applying
Agencies ask for the same three things: clean digitals, exact measurements and – once you are signed – a composite card for castings.
