Modelling jobs and more...

HiI attended my 1st assignment for Models Direct yesterday with Greene King as an extra.
I had losts of support and encouragement from models direct.
I over thought my wardrobe but did take other outfits so was able to read the vibe of the room and change accordingly.
I really enjoyed the experience in seeing how a video production works and chatting to other models.
After much waiting I finally played a background scene astanding and chatting it was great fun coming up with conversation topics and expressing in a joyful way.Overall I very much enjoyed the day and a big thanks to all at Models Direct, the production team, staff at Greene King and of course all the other models that I worked with that made me feel welcome

I took Logan who is 18 months old to Weybourne Beach to model clothes for the Next winter catalogue. He had a great time playing with the other children and being on the beach. He had to get changed into the clothes that were provided and then we went down closer to the water with a boat and some cliffs in the background and Logan had his photo taken. The photographer and crew were very friendly and Logan loved them! He had his hair trimmed by the hairdresser which was done perfectly and made him look really grown up. I think the most enjoyable part of the assignment for Logan was being on the beach playing with the pebbles and being around the other children. This was Logan's second assignment though Models Direct so he is gaining experience in front of the camera. I would definitely advise people to join this agency as everyone is so friendly and helpful and it is a great experience going out there and getting dressed up to have your photo taken for a big brand. I originally decided to join Logan up with Models Direct as he has a very distinctive look as he has a big afro so I thought it would be nice to try and show all his hair off and get him into something like this. Before this assignment I hadn't updated Logan's e-portfolio for a while, but I will definitely start updating it more regularly again now! Thank you, Elishia

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.

Fantastic!From start to finish the team made us feel very comfort and relaxed. It made the whole experience fun and we can’t wait to do it again!
Gemma from MD was great, keeping us informed of all details as and when she could and was very helpful on the phone with my numerous questions.
Overall it was a great experience!
