My friend John and I were sitting in my office yesterday morning to play poker and discuss where we go to lunch.
No, this is not the beginning of the story of male friendship. It 's the story of how two models of losing a decent payday.
I had the job of a layout for a local jeweler to shoot, and had contacts with a model near one of the largest sites online modeling portfolio. I wanted to shoot them to display more or less an hour to do with his shots forboth our portfolios. How we behave like other "helpers often, John had a shot Glamour shoot with another model for a few hours after I posted. He would have helped me and then I will light and props for him to move.
But there we were, sitting around a table playing cards. Our cameras were designed, the lights were on, but we were not filming. Why?
No one was presented by our models. None of them had called, nor were they answer, he would have the numbersus. To my knowledge, none of them knew the others, even if our pool of local models is not so great, so I doubt that they had jointly decided to stay with us. Neither John nor I am famous, but we have shown quite good portfolio on the web. We are also known. In over ten years, people shot, I cried just get an angry phone call from a friend: "Who is this?" As professionals, to encourage both models to meet with someone for their comfort, so I can not thinkThat these women would say that you can trust.
According to "Crap happens." Sometimes the vehicle fails, the child gets sick, or miss the bus. I understand that. If you are behind, or have another emergency situation, the professional thing to do - Hell is a noble thing to do - to call. And some days the fate conspire against you, and your phone is the juice or not, where you left off. I understand - we all had really bad days.
A number of years, Ihas a catalog of lingerie in the mail during the Christmas season mailings. All the clothes were displayed by only five or six different women. One of the women was a striking blonde. Now when I say "striking" I do not believe in common sense way. Sure, it was right for a nightgown mail proportionate short, but her face ... A front was significantly higher than others. The One Shot, which smiled with his mouth open showing teeth like tombstones in old files. His nose was broken andinsecure at some point. Make-up artist had done a great job as the editor of photos I'm sure. But she was still, say, not a classic beauty. But here it is, in a famous catalog of lingerie, modeling - and sales - some very nice clothes. Why was the Director of the issues raised? Why had the opportunity to reach a national audience? I have never spoken with anyone associated with that shoot, but I'm sure know.
This study showed.
And this is the secretserious sums of money as a model, or any other work you have done. The first thing to do before anything else, as "a better job than other people" or "Insert a superior experience for your customers," is that you really have to show up.
Most managers of most fast-food job interviews and new hires. Why? Because after a few days, half of new recruits just stop the ads. Many are not even in its first layer.The fast food industry is not to give employees a notice period of two weeks before departure known, nor employers offer a variety of reference, before leaving a troublesome employee. The reward is not great - but better than most people think. Why? To try to motivate employees and show them, in fact for their travels.
Most women are offered a modeling job involved much more than the typical fast-food worker. You will receive copies of the images. Sometimes you get to keepProps and costumes. Many get their travel expenses paid or reimbursed. Some even walk away with cash, much more per hour than they would in almost any other job.
And this is what is the real model on the most basic - a job. Stick to learn the craft, pull up your skills and talents, and can become a profitable career. But, first, is a job. Better paid than most, but still a job.
So what we have lost two models? Well, John and I each had $ 200 budgeted for our models,2:00 to 3:00 working hours. This is between $ 65 and $ 100 per hour. Each girl was able to shoot off half a day with pictures taken for her portfolio, tear sheets and professional all the money you have forty hours of work at minimum wage.
You can add more money, have more fun and spend time modeling more than almost any other job. But you need bigger, the most important rule for making money as a model to follow.
The first thing you do is ...show up!
