What ugc creators do
Creates “user-generated” style photos and videos for brands to use in ads and social media. Brands hire UGC creators for authenticity: you don’t need a big following.
What agencies and clients look for
- A short portfolio of sample videos is your “book”.
- Read contracts closely: usage rights and duration should be clear.
How to start
Make 3-5 sample videos with products you own and pitch brands or UGC marketplaces. Never pay an agency to sign you: see how to spot modeling scams.

Frequently asked questions
Can I become a ugc creator with no experience?
Yes. Agencies scout new faces all the time. Clean digitals, accurate measurements and a reputable agency are what matter, not a paid course or portfolio package.
Do I need professional photos to apply?
No. Most agencies want simple, natural digitals taken in daylight against a plain wall. See our model digitals guide.
Is the height requirement strict?
Typical heights are guidelines that vary by agency and market. Fashion boards are strict; commercial, beauty, parts and UGC work is flexible.
