Throughout the first audition, we will start examining the Instagram entries and successful applicants will be contacted to submit their model comp card and portfolio, where they will be screened through by our editors at Men’s Folio Malaysia.

And for the semi-finalists, we will also repost their entry as an announcement to confirm your eligibility as semi-finalists. So, keep an eye out on @mensfoliomy.

For the semi-finalists, you will then be scheduled in for a meet-and-greet session with the editors, where we will determine the top 10 finalists of the Model Search!

The top 10 finalists will be announced between 15th September to 30th September 2018.

These workshops will be hosted in the month of October 2018 and be made into an exclusive web-series to showcase the top finalists to our audience before the big finale.
