Modelling jobs and more...

I joined Models Direct after I took semi-retirement and had a bit more spare time on my hands. I am a fairly confident person and love meeting new people. I wanted to do something completely different and it seemed like a fun and interesting thing to do. This was my first assignment and I was booked to pose as part of a couple using Airport Parking Facilities for a holiday company. The assignment took place near Aberdeen Airport and was over three days. I didn't quite know what to expect, but I needn't have worried as the crew were fantastic at putting me at ease and explaining exactly what they needed from me. I thoroughly enjoyed working with my partner and the crew and learned about the process of shooting an advert. I found the whole experience totally enjoyable and really exciting, and would certainly like to do more work like this in the future. I think it has been a great move for me to join Models Direct as they have managed the whole booking process with professionalism. They have also been extremely encouraging and supportive.

Firstly, everyone involved in the shoot was absolutely lovely and welcoming.
The company did really well to provide us with everything that we needed, they looked out for us and this made the shoot much more relaxed. Also, they did really well to explain the purpose of the shoot and what was expected of us which really helped with getting into the right mindset.
I worked both indoors and outdoors portraying a homeless teenager in need of aid and then getting provided with the necessary aid. Working on the streets of Lewisham also helped in order to see the situations homeless people find themselves in. Being in the actual environment was really useful as it allowed me to see exactly what homeless people go through and this only helped me portray a homeless teenager better.The shoot was really fun and this is down to not only my love of being in front of camera but also the team we worked with were not just kind but also fun to work with.
The shoot was similar to how I expected by reading the brief but was different to how I expected in terms of how easy it was to work with the team. Also on a personal note this first experience really helped me to realise that being in front of camera is when I am in my element.

The Anchor representative and photographer were very patient, friendly and understanding. As a result my late attendance, due to a transport issue, was bearable. T
he day was made enjoyable by the company of my fellow models and the staff at the centre.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Models Direct on a really interesting assignment – being the model for a mole-analysis machine! From start to finish, my experience was overwhelmingly positive, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Models Direct to aspiring models.
What stood out most was the clear communication throughout the entire process. From the initial booking to the day of the shoot, I was kept well-informed and knew exactly what to expect. This really helped to put me at ease.
The professionalism of everyone involved, both from Models Direct and the client, was exceptional. The team on set was friendly, efficient, and created a comfortable working environment. I felt well-looked after and that my time was valued.
Overall, it was a smooth and enjoyable experience, and I'm very impressed with Models Direct's organization and the quality of the opportunities they provide.
I would absolutely recommend Models Direct to others looking to get into modelling; they are a truly professional and reliable agency.
