4. What should a graphic model do when he enters the business?
1, attend the training
First of all, we should 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.
Step 2 take part in activities
Take the initiative to participate in outdoor shooting activities organized by some large community websites or photography websites. The so-called outdoor shooting is organized by some photographers and several models to shoot in the suburbs or parks.
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 activities, but to take part in outdoor shooting with many photographers and models.
Step 3 take part in the competition
After some training, if the conditions are outstanding (female height is above 173, male height is above 183, and looks outstanding), try to participate in some more important model competitions, such as some famous model competitions such as CCTV and New Silk Road, and accumulate experience and exercise yourself in the competition. If you can get the ranking, you will easily enter the industry.
Step 4 learn basic skills
Girls should learn basic makeup, and boys should exercise: learn to pose and learn to 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 on the Internet or 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 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.
