“Well organised and great communication
Models Direct are super to deal with, keeping in touch regularly and ensuring everything is in order, both before and after the shoot.
I had a great filming day with a fab team from IMA, who were welcoming and well organised.
I was needed a number of times during the day for stills and video, so I'm glad I took a book to read for the in-between moments.
As I left the venue, the Creative Director spontaneously asked everyone to give me a round of applause, which was lovely!
