It felt amazing being a model for the day. The best thing about the assignment was shooting the commercial. I had to smile at first to show that i thought my shirt was the best but it wasnt so i had to show disappointment after we did that we had to take pictures to show pride and dissapointment. If your thinking of being a model go for it, its an experience of a life time.

The assignment was absolutely unbelievable. Being a model for the day was so exciting I couldn't wait to get on the catwalk. The best thing about the assignment was the confidence and self-belief that it has given me. I was asked to do Two catwalk shows per day with Bear,(pet cockapoo dog) and had to model some T shirts and Bear was 'modelling' dog accessories Read more about this child model assignment

Fantastic first time experience on the catwalk thanks. Being a model for the day made me feel ten feet tall!!!! The best thing about the assignment was the professional team I worked with at the NEC it made me feel very special. I was asked to model three outfits that were for sale at the NEC pet show and take along my pet for the catwalk

I had an amazing time and loved the opportunity of being on the catwalk. Being a model for the day was exciting and I felt like a star. The best thing about the assignment was meeting and working with professionals and performing on stage to an audience. I was asked to model clothing and perform various sets to music on the Jollyes Lifestage (catwalk). Something I would say to someone thinking of being a modle is it is great fun and a dream come true experience. Lisa was great (the co-ordinator) she kept us informed of all the required details and information.

In one sentence I fell it was a really good assignment and enjoyed it thoroughly. It felt absolutely amazing i enjoyed every minute of being on the cat walk. The best thing about the assignment was working with all the animals and friends around us which gave us a lot better performance. I was asked in 1 scene where me and my brother walked up the catwalk with our pet dogs; Molly & Sally and then I handed over Molly to my brother and a solo part where I did 'the worm' otherwise known as 'the caterpillar'. following this, both me and my brother walked off the stage area. We modelled t-shirts and dog collars and our dogs modelled a harness and lead.

The assignment made me feel really happy & excited. The best thing was doing cartwheels down the catwalk. I was asked to open the show by doing 3 cartwheels down the catwalk, a one handed crab dressed as a dalmation dog, then the last scene was to model a dog bed by pretending to sleep in it.

In one sentence I feel great about completing the model assignment. Being a model felt brilliant. The best thing about the assignment Ihave just completed was that I prentended to sleep in a dogs bed on the catwalk. I got asked to wear a collar around my neck and a top, and also I was asked to wear my pyjamas and pretend to sleep in a dogs bed. Some thing I would say to someone thinking of being a models is you really should go to Models Direct because you get looked after.

GMTV Assignment. Whe we came to the studios we were taken to the green room where breakfast was waiting. Sitting in the green room was an experience of it's own as we got to brush shoulders with Kate Garraway, Andrew Castle, Rachel Stevens and Estelle. Mueez was then given a guided tour of the studios and got to see how everything is put together and edited. Everyone was really friendly and very nice to the kids especially Henderson, Gyte, Sarah and Mark. Everyone also congratulated them on their performance and said how well both of them did. All in all a wonderful experience. Thankyou Models Direct.

I really enjoyed the two days of Kids Chinese Club. The days were interesting to learn about how the Chinese people speak like and how different their lives are to ours. The language lessons were really interesting but it was a bit harder than I really expected but it paid off. The cultural lessons were really interesting too because we got to meet Daisy's teacher when she was 5, who was Joseph. Overall, I really enjoyed the two days and it was a great experience.

The description of the assignment was accurate in terms of what Christal was required to do and she performed very well with what was asked of her. Feedback from the Director was very positive. The children all worked well together and formed good friendships.

Wow, what a tiring but thoroughly enjoyable two days. Everybody was extremely friendly and welcoming, they made Kimberly feel completely at ease. From my point of view as a parent i thought the whole experience was handled professionally yet relaxed, therefore i was happy to leave Kimberly unaccompanied in the knowledge that she would feel safe and comfortable with the people involved in filmimg.

We all met at the studio on Wednesday for filming. There was 10 children and Daisy who was our teacher. Daisy was very nice to all of us! I really did enjoy myself and also meet loads of new friends. We had 3 lessons on the first day and then 3 lessons on the second day. I loved speaking chinese in the restaurant!We had a birthday party for a girl called Jayda it was one of the best lessons because we ate loads of sweties and cake!!:) Daisy was very good at speaking chinese. Also she spoke spanish and french. Tracy was very kind to us aswell who told us what to do. I thought Jim was very funny too! We had to do some retakes because of all the lorries and construction outside also there were loads of police and ambulance's going past and the sirens were going off. I really enjoyed my time with everyone and would really be delighted to go and do it all again!! xie xie (Thank you in chinese!!) for giving me this assigment! http://www.sloughobserver.co.uk/articles/1/9058/

Thank you so so much for this first assignment what follows is a brief descriptions of Jada's experience in her own words. I had great fun during this filming session. I have never done anything like this before in my life. I met lots of children who were younger and older than me. It was good because I have made lots of new friends and learnt lots of new things about China and the way they speak. Daisy (our teacher) was very very nice, it was great to be taught Chinese by someone who is 17 years old. I wish she would be a teacher at my school. I was sad when filming was finished and Daisy had to go off to Spain, but i hope i can see her again and learn some more Chinese. The two days were very long, I had to get up very early and i did get tired but i tried my very best to keep going, when we were not filming there was a lot of hanging around, but im glad i kept going, because im now looking forward to seeing film at my school with my friends. Even my mummy had a good time learning Chinese and chatting away with all the other mums and dads. I've even got e-mail addresses of the friends I've made. Thank you.

Here are the details from the Tap Creative Design Agency assignment. David and his team were great, they met and greeted us, explained what we were doing the photos for. They were very good with Prince-Shercar, and he really enjoyed himself. Can't wait to do it again he says. They always checked that we were ok, and they were all pleasant and well dressed. Many thanks for the experience again.

I liked having my pictures taken at Kits for Kids it was exciting. My favourite part of the day was having my photo taken with the whale. Love Bethany Bethany really enjoyed herself and was continuously complimented on her behaviour and manners by the photographer and staff at the photo shoot. Bethany was enthusiastic, followed the instructions given to her and was very eager to be in front of the camera. Whenever the photographer asked the children who wanted their photo taken first Bethany always put her hand up and replied "me please". She had a great day. Cindy
