Do graphic models need to make any preparations?

The airplane model is different from our common runway model. Graphic models are mainly based on personal portraits and shapes, and photographers use them to create graphic works. Because this kind of model is not based on live performance, the height requirements for this kind of model are relatively loose, as long as it is more than 1.55 meters. However, the requirement for graphic models is not only to be photogenic or graceful, but also to have high quality. Plane models need to have instantaneous expressive force in front of the camera, harmonious unity of spirit, emotion and body, pure and clear image connotation, high appeal and affinity.

Plane models often appear on magazine covers, newspaper color pages, product 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) ratio

The whole figure is commensurate.

(2) Face shape

Models' faces are oval, oval and rectangular. Other face shapes should be selected according to other conditions, and make up for it in makeup and hairstyle.

(3) skin

The roughness and delicacy of the model's skin and the depth of skin color 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) Hand type

The requirements of a good hand shape are slender fingers, not 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

With professionalism and good natural image, can you still maintain your advantage? Not necessarily! Because there is another very important image that will affect the fate of the model, and that is the moral image.

Modeling is actually a very responsible job. Because models do not represent themselves, but promote products and enterprises. Every word and deed of the model belongs to the advertising image he created, not to the model himself. From the time the model started to make this advertising image, she should be responsible for this image and undertake social obligations for this image. To put it bluntly, dedication is dedication, that is, sacrificing personal interests for the cause, and success lies in these inputs, dedication and sacrifices.

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

The model should know some inputs and outputs, which is not a simple moral problem. First of all, we should see the efforts made by people around us in the growth process of the model. To cultivate a person, the energy, time, venue clothing and props paid by the unit are valuable, and the process of cultivating models is the process of input and output. Only by seeing what others have done for this, seeing other people's labor and fairly evaluating other people's labor and their own labor can we correctly treat and grasp every opportunity given by society.
