If you want to be a graphic model, how can you become one?

You can get hired through the right channel, but be careful not to apply for a job at a company. All companies that recruit models are fake recruiters who charge money under various names to defraud money. Real companies do not charge any fees. But real companies don't recruit models from outside, and you can't get in, so being a model is not that simple. It depends on where you are. If you can come to Beijing, you will have plenty of opportunities. If you want to be a model in Beijing, firstly, you can find units or individuals who directly use models through the Internet; secondly, there are real free preliminary audition channels in the industry. You can start with both methods, that is, you can directly become a model. You can also be signed by a real and formal company.

Especially for the second channel mentioned above, due to various reasons, very few can actually access it, and the threshold seems to be a bit high. But if you can't go to art school or participate in the talent show, the right thing to do is to participate in the free preliminary auditions and other opportunities organized by industry insiders. Don't apply for any company. There is really no one there. Don't even touch it. touch them.

The threshold is not high, but it is a common requirement for all professional model artists. Everyone wants to find a real and legitimate place to work as a model, but the professional requirements for models in real places are difficult for amateurs to accept, including graphic models. The requirements for the preliminary audition activities of this real channel in the industry are beyond your imagination. That is, you must not refuse to be naked in public on location! Because it is difficult to determine in advance what model you will be in the future when participating in the preliminary audition activities, and there is no one who only does one type of model. Any modeling agency will accept any model, and you will be a model if you meet any model. There is no way to pick and choose. Therefore, under this premise, as a model, being naked in public is a situation that needs to be faced frequently, and it may even become a commonplace norm.

This does not mean that every kind of model must be done naked, but it means that no matter what model you are doing, you cannot avoid being naked. For example, clothing models often need to show sexy underwear and expose everything. What's the difference between wearing clothes and not wearing clothes? Many times, dressing is done in public, and there is no way to avoid anyone. Many dressing assistants are male, and makeup artists are also male. They often need to apply makeup to every inch of your body. Some designers even need to do it on-site. It is very common to modify the clothes on your body, temporarily embellishing them with needle and thread, and photographers surround you to take pictures. In some modeling activities where Chinese and foreign models gather, it is very common to see models running around naked in the rush. There is no way to avoid the presence of so many men when a model changes clothes, and men have long been accustomed to the fact that no one is looking at you. Moreover, in foreign modeling events now, female models appear naked and show off hats, shoes, jewelry, etc. No one can say whether China will do the same in the future. Therefore, if you don’t have the ability to expose yourself in public as a model, you won’t be able to do this business at all. Therefore, auditions are all required to be completely naked in front of the public. Otherwise, how can you prove that you can do this job? Anyone who cannot do this will be eliminated during the audition.

The same goes for graphic models. Mannequins also belong to graphic models. Mannequins are the main task of any modeling agency. There is no model who does not do human models. Whoever says not to do it will immediately be banned. Relegated to limbo. If you do it, you will make a lot of money, but if you don’t, you will be eliminated. Who is so stupid as to not do it? None of the girls who are working as models today are not doing these models. Although they only say that they are ordinary models to the outside world, and they do not even tell their friends and family the truth, in fact, no one who does not do it will not be able to survive in the industry. . Therefore, it is normal and necessary to tell you during the audition that you cannot refuse any type of model, and that you are required to be naked in public on location. If this does not work, you will definitely lose at the starting line!

This time you know that the real modeling agency you are looking for is not as simple as you thought, right? In fact, only girls who have attended art schools can meet these requirements, because the first lesson when they go to art school is "liberating nature". The teacher tells them this and tells them that they must learn to live naked in the future, and then He took them to do nude performance art in public on campus and skinny-dipping with boys. Over the course of several years, they were completely accustomed to the naked way of life. Therefore, the training method of the free preliminary audition activities in the industry is to enable you to achieve the effect of attending an art school, and the talents that come out are all top-notch. If you are sure that you can do it, why not attend this event for free? Isn’t it much better than paying a high price to attend a model training class?

But these activities seem to be only available in megacities, such as Beijing, Shanghai, and other individual cities. And because it is an industry-wide event that is not publicized to the public, there is no official website, and there is no unified contact information. They all rely on the personal relationship between individual photography volunteers and individual modeling agencies, so it is difficult to find. I don’t know where you are from. , if you can’t find it locally and can do it without refusing to be a model of any kind, you can come to me in Beijing. I am a former high-level executive in the entertainment industry in Beijing. I have now retired. I am currently volunteering as an elderly volunteer in Beijing to audition for you for free. This event is open to both actors and models. Whoever takes a fancy to you can participate in their event.

Our auditions are all filmed on location in downtown Beijing. Working meals are provided free of charge during the auditions, as long as you provide your own accommodation. You control your own time, and it doesn't interfere with your normal work and study.

For us, it is mainly a way to be content and happy in old age, enrich our retirement life, and achieve the purpose of exercising while shooting outdoors.

Since those employers come to me from time to time to view films and select people, and every time they come, they only view recent ones, so if you only shoot a small amount in a short period of time, you are likely to be rejected by them. miss. Only by insisting on auditioning and filming information films with me for a long time, so that they have your information every time they come, will you have a better chance of being seen and selected by them. During the audition, I will arrange some sporadic performing arts activities for you, all of which are paid, so that you can experience, exercise, see, and accumulate, so as to prepare for your future acting career

But When you come to me for an audition, I state that I don't guarantee that you will be able to find a way out. It's best not to have the mentality that you have to be an actor or a model. Just have fun, treat the audition as a real shoot, and have fun. Except that you don't make money, it is nothing like a real shoot. The difference is, when you come to me, you are no different from a real artist. You must really love this industry, including even the audition photography itself. Regardless of whether you are selected or not, you will fully enjoy being able to express yourself in front of the camera. Don't bite the bullet and audition.

I myself have a certain reputation in the free audition community in Beijing. I have been doing this charity work for decades. Many well-known artists have come from my audition activities. If you search on the Internet, you will find nothing but malicious attacks by some vests from the scammer companies whose jobs I lost. Apart from the abuse, no artist who has actually auditioned with me has ever complained about any specific wrongdoing by me. Of course, it does not rule out that there are some girls who have never been to my place, but were sold and counted money for others, and I can't do anything about it. I believe that those who are clean will self-clean, and this is my pride.
