A (typical) day in the life of a Models Direct model on set

All bookings with us are different. That’s because the modelling briefs we receive from top brands demand certain specifications, whether they are a quick one-hour shoot or a job lasting a few days. Every model is different, too, with their own looks and style, which makes assignments even more exciting for casting directors, photographers and film makers.

That said, we thought it’d be beneficial to give potential models a general idea of how a typical day with one of our clients may pan out. It should whet the appetite for those readers looking to secure modelling jobs with us. For the thousands of successful models, it may bring back memories and remind them to keep their portfolios updated to increase the chances of even more work.Read more on the blog – https://www.modelsdirect.org.uk/a-typical-day-in-the-life-of-a-models-direct-model-on-set/

Model Feedback/Review 

Female Model Sarah 

Shoot – Promotional Shoot 

I have been extremely impressed with Models Direct as an Agency due to many factors. From the registration process with Heidi who actually had conversations with me and didn’t make me feel like just a number to get on their books to pay the fee, but who I felt was completely genuine, watching their active and impressive social media postings (hoping one day I would be up there!), good luck wishes and well done posts and stories, to being active in looking for work for me from the beginning.

And then there’s Gemma! Gemma has been an absolute pleasure to work with. She was so helpful in booking in my first job with Models Direct and was in regular contact, sending through booking information, promptly answered any queries that I had, helped me to feel at ease in the lead up, wished me luck on the day and then followed up after the shoot. Gemma really is a credit to the agency as she is professional, friendly, personable, positive, full of encouragement and very knowledgeable.

I am still smiling from ear to ear after the shoot yesterday as I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience! My male model partner was a perfect match for me, and the photographers were so helpful, experienced, laid back, calming and such a pleasure to work with, we all enjoyed ourselves thoroughly and had such a laugh! The client was very accommodating also, looked after us very well and made us feel special.

I honestly can’t thank Models Direct and Gemma enough and will always have the fondest memories of my first shoot!

MD Feedback & Reviews 

Its no secret any business will have reviews good and bad!

For us here at Models Direct we believe having a mix of good and bad reviews benefit a business by enhancing its credibility, demonstrating a human side, and providing valuable feedback for improvement. While positive reviews build trust and also allow potential new models and clients and insight, negative reviews, when addressed effectively, also then show that as business we value customer feedback and is committed to improvement and willing to be transparent about customer experiences. 

  • No business is perfect and appreciate seeing a realistic representation of the business. 
  • Negative reviews offer valuable insights and we respond according, sadly within the industry there is lots of confusion and high expectation, which from the get go we are very transparent. 

In essence, a mix of good and bad reviews provides a more balanced and realistic view of a business, enhancing its credibility, demonstrating its commitment to customer satisfaction, and providing valuable feedback for improvement. 

Here at Models Direct – We appreciate our Trustpilot & Google reviews, both positive and negative, as they allow us to showcase our business transparently and honestly.

Behind the Scenes on a Modelling Shoot

There’s nothing more exciting than taking part in your first ever modelling shoot, but it is worth having an idea of what to expect before you go…

Models Direct asks its models to take their own snaps and to report back on their experiences so those who are attending an assignment for the very first time can find out more.

Read some of these, have a look at photos and videos that have been posted and remember we are always happy to answer any questions you have before heading off.

In the meantime, here is a little glimpse behind the scenes!

Shoot – Promotional Shoot 

What a brilliant and fun experience.  I feel so fortunate to have chosen models direct as my agent as they guided me well in my journey of being in front of the camera.  Gemma made sure I was informed of the process throughout and made me feel at ease throughout.  The job I was given was with a great client who really knew their stuff behind the camera and made the whole experience a real joy as it was so professional, relaxed and enjoyable all at the same time.
