"Rising Star Academy"
for kids in age 4-18:
Career development for models and performers on the Star Kids main board.
Our partners list includes international model search projects, castings of young actors, fashion weeks, prestigious competitions, brands and fashion magazines are. In 2023 Star already celebrated its 12th birthday - during this long time we have discovered amount of young talents for international stages and helped each of our pupils to believe in themselves. The search of new talented faces into Star Kids family takes place several times a year according to our casting schedule.
Why not a kids model school but the Rising Stars Academy?
First of all, it is an image laboratory with the purpose is to provide harmonious development of the personality and discover it’s strongest sides, no matter which direction in performing arts the a child chooses as the main one.
Secondly, our aim is to provide preparation for the world class events, which includes much more different aspects than basic modeling skills. A standard kids model school program would be insufficient for successful performance at a multiform international competition or Olympiad and becoming a public person.
Thirdly, what differs us from many hobby-studios: the management and teachers of the Star Kids Agency follow the principle of an individual approach, taking into account the experiences, goals, wishes, personality, strengths and weaknesses of each child. Continuous work on own careers and self-growth allows to keep trainings up to date according to the world trends and requirements.
Why are so many of the classes in our program still in modeling direction?
Habbit of graceful appearance, walk and posing, being confident in front of photo and video cameras as well as in front of large crowd, sencse of taste in style, looks and image making, being culturally developed and be able to answer unexpected questions with dignity - all these skills are necessary for every performer, even if a child and parents do not plan link the future with modeling. Self-confidence, self-awareness and shiny appearance will be useful for young people in every direction as well as in daily life.
