What Is a BitLife Model?

As the name suggests, being a BitLife model is all about serving looks. You will work with agencies and casting directors, just as it tends to go in real life, and you'll get gigs appearing in advertisements and photographs while maintaining a good relationship with your casting director and clients.

The life of a BitLife model isn't an easy one, however. It can be a confusing job to make progress with, as each audition and photoshoot prompts you to be quirky, full of poise, or full of attitude. You have to cater to the client and know your virtual Balenciaga from your pixelated Prada.

It's worth it, though, as BitLife models are almost guaranteed to become famous. The bigger a name you make for yourself, the more photoshoots, commercial roles, and opportunities (like writing your autobiography) you'll be presented with.

As a BitLife model, there's a tier list of nuanced roles to strive for. Each one is a bit more prestigious than the last, with higher wages and an increased chance of gaining fame. You can check out the list of modeling gigs below and see which one suits you.

• Body Part Model
• Stock Image Model
• Catalogue Model
• Elite Model
• Supermodel

You'll need to start from the bottom no matter what, and there's a lot of trial and error involved in impressing your clients. It's important to wait until your reputation has grown before asking for higher wages, too. Just like in real life, you won't see many promotions or job offers without working hard to build a portfolio of work, experience, and connections.

So, your goal is to get jobs as a body part model to build your experience, before moving up to a stock image model and so on. Eventually, with enough experience (and a lot of luck), you'll be able to become a supermodel, at which point you'll be earning much higher wages. However, it's not quite that simple in practice. Becoming a supermodel, or even a body part model, requires some specific experience.

How to Become a BitLife Model

If you're looking to become a BitLife model, then here's how:

• The game now lets you prepare for a modelling career during childhood.
• When starting a new custom life, you can choose modelling as a special talent.
• Having modelling skills makes it much easier to get into the profession later on, as does increasing your character's looks to around 90% and above.
• At 13 years old, you can begin taking modelling lessons with parental permission.
• Taking these lessons is important as the skill boosts your chances of getting a modelling job at 18.
• During childhood, you should also get a part-time job (or ask your parents for money) to afford the early costs of the modelling career.
• At 18, your first step towards the job is getting a headshot taken.
• For best results, choose the full-color option with a blank background and flirty expression.
• If these options aren't available, back out; the money isn't taken until you hit 'OK.'
• After getting a headshot, approach local gigs to build up experience.
• Complete two or three gigs, then approach a reputable agency that suits your character's age.
• With luck and the right sliders, you may get a job as a Body Part Model.
• If your character lacks good looks, consider boosting them with plastic surgery as an adult.
• The Health stat is important, so keep it high through visiting the doctor and exercising.
• Alternatively, you could manually change your stats using BitLife's God Mode option.

You have to work hard to become a BitLife model. The most important thing for this is to get your character's appearance above 90%. As mentioned above, the simulation now lets you prepare for a modelling career during childhood. So, when you start a new custom life, you can choose modelling as a special talent that will make this a lot easier later on.

At 13 years old, you can begin taking modelling lessons (assuming your parents permit you). Taking these lessons is important as the skill boosts your chances of getting a modelling job when you reach 18. During these early years, you should also get a part-time job (or ask your parents for money) to afford the early costs of the modelling career.

At 18, your first step towards the job is getting a headshot taken. For best results, we recommend choosing the full-color option with a blank background and flirty expression. If these aren't available, back out and try again as the money isn't taken until you hit 'OK.'

After having a headshot taken, approaching local gigs is a great way to build up experience. Complete two or three, then approach an agency - look for a reputable one that suits your character's age. With a bit of luck, you'll put the sliders in the right position and get a job as a Body Part Model.

As you can see though, if you have aspirations to become a supermodel, then you'll have to start working towards it from day one, beginning with your character's appearance rating. While it's possible to score a gig with luck, having good looks and slowly building your experience and skills before 18 will go a long way.

What Are the Perks of Being a BitLife Model?

It certainly won't come as any surprise that the main perk of being a BitLife model is the money and fame. Climb the BitLife model career ladder, and you'll slowly start to see your gigs go from paying a few hundred dollars to hundreds of thousands. You'll be virtually strutting down the runway as the new Naomi Campbell is in town. On the side, posting on social media and engaging with it often is a great way to boost your fame and get an extra slice of money.

On top of the obvious financial benefits, if you manage to climb the ladder and become a reasonably notable model with a solid social media following, you'll unlock the Fame characteristic. From there, you can partake in extra jobs to make money and ever square off against powerful rivals in the BitLife Model industry.

There are some downsides, however. If you're playing as a female character, getting pregnant will usually get you fired from your agency. You'll also need to be wary of 'extreme' requests from clients (i.e., over-the-top raunchy behavior) as they won't always want you to fulfil them.

Evidently, navigating life as a BitLife model is harder than it looks. However, there are some handy tricks to know that will make things easier.

How to Do Well as a BitLife Model

After submitting your headshot and getting the job, you'll need to become a master of the Attitude, Quirkiness, and Poise sliders. Pay close attention to the randomized descriptions you're given by clients. The table below shows the optimal combinations:

That's everything you need to know about getting started as a BitLife model. It's a tricky profession, but you're sure to get ahead if you stay friendly with your booking agents and make a good impression on clients. Don't be afraid to ditch your agency, either; some (usually the ones with well-known clients) have a better chance of making you famous.

If you're not sure how to unlock Elite gigs, don't worry - the game doesn't make it obvious. You'll need to complete five local gigs before they become available, but the extra money they can offer is well worth it.

We've gone over how to become a model, the requirements you need to meet, and the benefits you get for climbing the corporate ladder. Armed with this knowledge, you'll be rocking the runway in no time - try not to get caught if you try to sabotage your fellow models, though. You don't want to become the next Tonya Harding
