How can I become a graphic model?

Many young people yearn for the modeling industry. /kloc-boys and girls aged 0/8 and 20 often ask me that I am tall and feel good about myself. I really want to be a model. How can I get into the business and become a model?

This problem is more complicated, because you want to be a model when you think you are not bad, and you usually feel good about yourself. You may not be a model without training and customer recognition, but there are many talents with real modeling potential. If you have the potential to be a model, you will have many opportunities to participate in similar activities at school, such as etiquette and "clerks" who help distribute materials at exhibitions, auto shows or other activities. There are many opportunities now. Many small models have been modeling for several months and have been exposed to this industry for a long time. If you have a gift, don't wait until you remember it. If you feel good about yourself, how did you get into this industry?

First, to participate in training: first of all, to carry out some professional training. Model training is not difficult, but only after training can we have professional knowledge, understand the basic essentials and make people feel more professional. These skills can be applied freely through continuous experience accumulation.

Second, participate in activities: take the initiative to participate in outdoor shooting activities organized by photographers on some large community websites or photography websites. The so-called outdoor shooting was organized by some photographers and several models participated. Photographers practice shooting skills and angles, while models practice expressions, movements and modeling. Newcomers had better take part in such activities more, which is helpful to find the feeling of being a model and get the affirmation of photographers. Of course, they should choose carefully before attending. It is recommended not to take part in indoor shooting.

Third, participate in the competition: after some training, if the conditions are outstanding (female height 173 or above, male height 183 or above, with outstanding appearance), try to participate in some more important model competitions, such as some famous model competitions such as CCTV and New Silk Road, so as to accumulate experience and exercise yourself in the competition. If you can get the ranking, it will be easy to enter the industry.

Fourth, learn basic skills: girls should learn basic makeup, and boys should exercise: learn to pose and shape. Many times, shooting and some performances require models to make up themselves, which is a skill that female models must master. You can go to professional classes for training, get a lot of information online or in fashion magazines, and practice at home. Boys must practice their musical instruments and develop a sense of muscle and line, so that they can meet the requirements whether they participate in competitions or perform. Models are required to pose in many different poses, and female models must know at least 150 various poses. There can be fewer male models. But you must be skilled, you can show it immediately when you shoot, and you can't repeat the same action too much.

Fifth, make professional model cards: In the past, models used paper model cards, which were usually made by themselves. These expenses include taking professional photos and making model cards. But in recent years, with the extensive use of computers, models can use software to make their own model cards, which must contain information such as height and measurements. Photos must be taken by a professional photography company. You can take some photos in the photography building, and just start taking cheap packages. Professional model information photos mainly depend on your photogenic level. After the model card is finished, it can be sent to model companies and advertising companies.

How to know if you are suitable for the modeling industry: the only criterion to test whether you can be a model is the market, that is, whether customers approve you. If it is an interest, it is another matter. Then how do we know whether the customer approves or not? When you send the information and photos to the model company, see if there is any client interview. Interview is a necessary process for customers to choose models. Many models will attend the interview. In fact, this is an opportunity for customers to compare models. Under such circumstances, do you think you can have an advantage in it? From figure, appearance, modeling experience and so on. Can the 10 interview you attended impress customers more than three times? As a business model, if a customer chooses you after an interview and pays you for advertising and catwalk, congratulations, you can go on in this line.

Before you think about where to go for an interview with a modeling company, you should evaluate whether your qualifications really meet the standards of modeling. Specifically, you can refer to the model information on the model website, compare yourself and make a correct judgment. Not everyone can be a model, and judging oneself objectively is also a sign of being responsible for oneself, so as not to be cheated by some fraud companies that recruit models.
