How to Get Cast in a Rap Video

Individuals who want to get cast in a rap video should try to get the desired look that the video directors want. Individuals should also apply at talent agencies who have connections. People can find work in rap music videos easily if they work on having the right look and apply to a trusted agency.

Things You Will Need:



  • Portfolio

  • Profile



  1. Work out to get fit so that you are ready to be cast in a rap music video.  Do a lot of sit ups, squats and lunges to get that you will fit the description of what rap video directors are looking for. Consider wearing clothing and styling your hair in a way that fits with the rap style.

  2. Create a portfolio by gathering your best pictures. Consider getting some professional head and full body photos taken by a photographer so that the pictures come out well.

  3. Put together a profile of yourself and list all your positive attributes. Emphasize your positive physical features such as height, weight, measurements and eye color.

  4. Apply to a talent agency that has contacts with rap video directors. Bring in your portfolio and profile so that the agents can see how photogenic you are. Discuss your interest and see if the talent agent can find you work. Ask about the work that past clients have done.

  5. Act in a professional manner when you get your first job call. Leave early so that you can plan for the unexpected such as traffic. Let the rap video beauty experts work on your hair and make up so that they can give you the desired look that you need. Listen to the director and rap artists about what they recommend for you to do in the music video.
