Matters needing attention when asking models to shoot.

Precautions for model shooting:

Practicing posing through the mirror is the best tool for you to learn how to pose. When looking in the mirror, you should always imagine what the photographer will do and which part of your body will be closest to the camera, which will greatly affect the effect.

Leaving space between the limbs and the body, on the one hand, can avoid squeezing out the fat on the limbs, on the other hand, it can also create a slimmer visual effect through sufficient body width.

Find the main light source and learn how to pose. When your arm is lifted directly to the main light source, the strong contrast will make your arm too bright, and your elbow may block the light, so pull your elbow back a little.

Beware of phototaxis. Don't think that only insects tend to light, and people may get closer and closer to the light source unconsciously, so if the light source has been set, try to keep it fixed or pay attention to whether you are getting closer and closer.

Don't squint too much

Know the limit of turning your head. Many rules used to remind you that models don't turn their heads. Look in the mirror and practice again.

Stretching your neck is not a natural action, so many people will ignore it, but the effect is very significant. Practice in front of the mirror, relax your head and pull it back, let your head lean forward a little, and you will find that your neck will lose weight soon! If you go into another movie and let your chin face the camera, the outline lines will become more prominent and much more beautiful.

Appropriate Angle If the photographer is facing you at 12 o'clock, then you should turn slightly to 1: 30 instead of 3 o'clock, because it will make you lose the width of your body. In addition, don't turn to the light source, turn to the shadow and hide what you don't want in the shadow.

Pay attention to your fingers, don't straighten them together, but keep them slightly bent and relaxed; Besides, don't show the back of your hand, because it's big and ugly. On the contrary, if you show the side of your hand, you will feel much slimmer and smaller.

Wear the right clothes. If you are hired to promote certain products, you should wear clothes that are suitable for the relevant products, not block them.

Take a universal box with you. You should pack a universal box and take it with you every time you work, because some gadgets will not be mentioned in the job introduction, but you should be prepared. For example, outdoor/studio shoes, transparent/black underwear, facial tissues, leg lotion, ordinary vests, safety pins/clips, drinking pipes (used to protect lipstick when drinking water), clean water and energy food, spare stockings and cosmetics when shooting underwear, etc. If a special job is like playing a bride, you'd better bring your own trinkets, especially wedding rings.

It is everyone's job to answer your size honestly, and no one will care about your size, whether it is height, weight or measurements. It is very important to be honest with your work partners. If you find that it doesn't apply at all at work, then the biggest embarrassment is.

Don't judge others too early when communicating with other models. Some people think that models have poor brands and poor personalities, but in fact many people are very friendly and helpful. And the people you worship are actually just ordinary people.

Friendly and interesting, whether you will be hired again depends largely on how you cooperate with others and whether you are friendly, devoted and happy to everyone. Everyone just wants to work with the people they get along with, so please keep a friendly attitude.
