ACTIVE MODELS
Your portfolio is your
Curriculum Vitae, and as with any CV, should be kept fresh, and
up-to-date. It needs to promote both professionalism and
versatility, and should target the market and in some instances
the specific task for which you are applying. There's not
a lot of point in presenting artistic nude images to a wedding
dress
designer for instance.
Actively promoting your
portfolio will
often mean chopping and changing to suit the potential client's
business. By having a library
of images, and careful selection of which amongst these are
included in your Portfolio, you will increase your chances of
gaining the jobs you want.
Whether your need is to
supplement and refresh your portfolio, create specific and/or
unique images, or to replicate something you've seen elsewhere,
we will take the time and effort to get it right and provide
your needs.
ASPIRING MODELS
Do you want to be a model?
When people think of a model,
for most there is an instant image conjured up of a tall 18 year
old waif strutting her stuff on the catwalk. Names like
Jasper Conran, Vivian Westwood and the like are hovering on the
peripheries of such images.
The promotion of the fashion
industry has manufactured a wonderful world of glamour, where the rich and
famous are to be found, and everything is fabulous and
wonderful. This image tends to overshadow all else,
however 'haute couture' is only a tiny part of a massive and multifaceted
industry in modelling. Rather like football, there are
many many thousands more people who actively participate than
make it to the international arena.
Men, women and children of
all ages can become models, and they do not have to be slim
and/or glamorous. Some advertising only requires an image
of a single part of the body, such as a foot or a hand. A
slim long fingered hand would be used to sell jewellery, whilst
a small adult hand used to make an ice cream cone appear bigger
than it is. Possibly a strong masculine hand to hold a
razor... Images of people are used to sell anything and
everything, including prosthetic limbs so you don't even need to
have a full set of everything.
If you want more information,
and an honest, free and no obligation discussion on your
prospects, or modelling in general, then feel free to get in
touch.
