Dancers may or may not hear back from Revolution. There’s no need to follow up—we will reach out if we decide to move forward with your application. Applications are reviewed year-round. 

Yes! We encourage dancers to reapply within 6 months to a year, as this allows us to receive updated photos and measurements while also tracking their progress in training. 

Dancers will be invited to an in-person live audition if they are selected. Auditions are invite-only. Following the audition, our Model Team will then send an acceptance or denial email. 

Sometimes, if a video is too large, the application will not submit. Please remove the video and then submit. You can also send the video to models@revolutiondance.com.

During the audition, dancers will be guided by a choreographer to show us dance poses in a variety of genres and then will be encouraged to improv in each style they train in. Besides dance technique, we are also looking for confidence, stage presence, and the ability to take direction and corrections. We will update measurements and capture photos as they pose and dance—just like a real photoshoot! 

There are no size requirements. Models’ ages can range from 3 years old to 22 years old. 

No! While we do ask if dancers have experience, it is not a requirement. Models are required to inform Revolution if they are also modeling for specific companies in our industry. 

We encourage dancers during the audition to show us all of their styles that they train in. The audition is the foundation of our photoshoots and relationships with your dancers. Dancers may not train in all of the styles Revolution holds photoshoots for, but this does not hurt their chances of being accepted. 

Yes! We encourage dancers from all over the Chicagoland area to apply. 

Models are considered for various events throughout the year, including photoshoots, fit modeling, and other opportunities. The casting process for these events occurs shortly before each one, which means that dancers may be contacted anywhere from a month to up to a year in advance. Please note that casting for specific events is not guaranteed, and there is no need to reach out to us. We will contact you! 

Photoshoots are held in the Chicagoland suburbs. Additional photoshoot information (location, schedule, requirements, etc.) is to be kept confidential and will not be disclosed until final approval on casting has been given. 

Yes! All dancers selected for a photoshoot must attend an in-person fitting at least a week in advance of their event. 

Yes! All dancers are paid for their time when working with Revolution. 

Model images will be available on our website, but alternative, unretouched, or unused photos will not be released under any circumstances. However, if featured in a catalog, models can request a hard copy of the catalog after it has been released to the public. 

Parents may stay in the common area but are not allowed on set during the photoshoots.  

Yes. All dancers are required to fill out a Model Handbook and a W-9 in order to work with Revolution. 

Application and audition photos will be used for internal use only. Photography and videography taken at a photoshoot may be used for catalogs, social media, website, advertising, or any other editorial or trade purpose at Revolution's discretion. 

No. All photos, videos, and designs taken by Revolution are the sole property of Revolution and may be used without restriction. Models and parents do not have the right to request or limit their usage.
