Pictures of some Modeling industry
I AM GOING TO TELL YOU ABOUT DIFFERENT TYPES OF MODELS AND INDUSTRY.
The various types of Modeling.
Catwalk: Catwalk describes a narrow, usually elevated platform used by models to demonstrate clothing and accessories during a fashion show. It's a very specialised field. In theory the minimum height requirement is 5'7" for women and 6'0" for men but in reality they are usually looking for people who are taller than this.
High Fashion: This what most models are looking for, but it is hard to get. High fashion is modelling designer clothes and cosmetics. To get this type of work you need to have outstanding looks, a first-class agency and a lot of experience.
Catalogue: Generally, catalogue models represent the market segment for which that catalogue is targeted. Often times this is the classic beauty – tall, slender, healthy and beautiful.
The marketing idea is transference, i.e. if you buy these clothes you will look as nice as the person pictured in the catalogue.
Catalogue modelling usually pays well because of the volume of photos taken. You should generally be between 1.6m and 1.7m tall, and a size 6.
TV commercials: A model is seen in a different medium. Consumers get a chance to see your personality in a way that's not captured in a still ad.
The client will select models who are extremely consumerfriendly, whom customers will like and to whom customers can relate. Because there are so many types of products, models — as well as actors and real people — can find themselves cast in TV commercials.
To be more marketable, you need to learn how to deliver dialogue with conviction in front of a camera. Consider this option if you have on-screen presence, appear comfortable and expressive on camera.
Lingerie: This is really catalogue modelling and we only mention it separately because, unlike other catalogue modelling, size is very important. For some reason, nearly all of the underwear photographed is size 10. More specifically, the bra size is 34B - so if you're not 34B there will be very little lingerie work available to you. For some strange reason, size-specific products are not unusual. Models for Wedding dresses, for example, are nearly always size 12.
Glamour: Glamour has a bad name because it is often a euphemism for porn, but glamour is really where the model is photographed for his or her looks and there is no product as such.
Some glamour photography is fully-clothed, but most of it is nude. If someone wants to book you for glamour photography find out in advance exactly what you will be expected to do and get it in writing.
There are specialised agencies for glamour modelling.
Amateur: Some amateur photographers book models for perfectly legitimate reasons, e.g. to improve their photography skills. Generally speaking, if you are interested in this type of modelling it is safer to approach camera clubs than to deal with individuals.
Figure: This is 'fine art' nude photography, which does not have a sexual content and where the (usually amateur) photographer wants to depict the human form in an artistic way.
Promotion: This usually involves working on exhibition stands and similar, being pleasant to visitors and making the stand look more attractive! It is not really modelling as such but models are often used because they have attractive looks and a good personality.
Mens magazine: This is pornography, or something very close to it.
Video: Video models are models who do music videos.
Continental: Similar to mens magazine, but more so, usually includes the use of sex toys and/or fingers.
Softcore: Being photographed or filmed while pretending to have sex
Hardcore: Being photographed or filmed while having sex.
