Do graphic models have height requirements?

Flat models don't want height! What you want is a kind of confidence! Plane models often appear on magazine covers, newspaper color pages, commodity posters, product albums, calendars and indoor and outdoor light boxes.

Successful print advertising works can often make the audience unforgettable and achieve the purpose of publicity. Print advertising works are closely related to photographers, makeup artists and backstage production.

As a model, a plane model needs to have the following basic elements:

First, the appearance:

(1) The whole graph is harmonious.

(2) Face model is superior to oval face, oval face and rectangular face. Other face shapes should be selected according to other conditions, and make up for it in makeup and hairstyle.

(3) The roughness, fineness and color of the skin model are directly related to the timing of use. If the skin is good, there will be more opportunities and a wider range of adaptation. Acne or rough skin that affects the appearance will affect the opportunity. Even if the skin is good, pay special attention to protection. Because the makeup of models is professional and their daily life is irregular, we should pay special attention to controlling the intake of cigarettes, alcohol, sugar and irritating food if we want to keep the skin beautiful.

(4) The requirements for a good hand shape are slender fingers, not too thick joints, fine nails and delicate and elastic skin.

Second, the quality:

A model's self-image includes two aspects. On the one hand, it is the natural image of the model, which mainly refers to the model's appearance, figure, performance style, characteristics and skills. On the other hand, it is the moral image of the model, her attitude towards work, the people around her, her evaluation of self-worth and her cultivation level in public places and life details. These two aspects cover the quality of models, that is, professional quality and moral quality.

1, professional quality

The professionalism of models is mainly reflected in the professionalism. Because the value of a model is that it can create the advertising image of products for customers artistically, customers should first consider the characteristics and vitality of the model's external image when choosing this image. This means that as a professional model, you should always maintain a good image. This image is not only on the stage, nor does it refer to the artistic level, but runs through the training, life and work attitude. In social activities, the more famous a model is, the higher people demand of him. At the same time, out of the need of image, it also means that everything about the model is not his own, but belongs to the image created by the model, and all his actions must be based on obeying and maintaining this image.

2. Professional ethics

3. Basic requirements for creating images

(1) has a serious attitude towards work, training and career, and has professionalism.

(2) We should abide by industry rules, correctly evaluate ourselves and respect the work of others.

Third, what should a plane model do when he enters the business?

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.
