Adult Modeling/Acting Division- "Star Express"
In-Depth Course Description
Ramp & Runway Modeling
Complete instruction in modeling pivots, European and American turns, dance choreography for the ramp, team modeling and stage presentations for group modeling are covered. Small and large runway show performance skills are also discussed.
Make-up & Hair Care
Both color and black and white photography make-up are taught for high fashion and commercial portfolio shoots. The goal of this workshop is for the student to be able to apply various looks on the set for personal shoots as well as paid professional shoots. Contouring, color, and style for individual looks are achieved. The condition and type of each student’s hair is evaluated and daily care recommendations are made. Hair products are described in relation to their purpose and best use. Each student has his face shape defined, and hairstyles recommended accordingly for both current and future styling decisions. These sessions are taught keeping job, interviews, stage and sales presentations in mind.
Wardrobe Coordination
One of the keys to success is presenting yourself in an interview, casting or go-see. These sessions will give you tips for what to wear for you body type, the best colors for your complexion, and most importantly what is appropriate for various situations. This workshop will also include fashion looks for photo shoots!
Photo Posing Techniques
The model's photo positions and their relationship to clothing and the expression of a look is studied and practiced by students with the use of background music to move in and out of photo sessions. Photography light levels and camera angles are studied. The preparations for both studio and on location shoots are also included.
Portfolio Preperation
A model's portfolio is planned with the individual's best attributes in mind. Fashion, character looks, and commercial photography poses are identified, and the student is assisted in organizing his portfolio for professional presentation, directly related to the work they are qualified for.
Photography Session
Actual photography shoots, a “two-look” shoot, are included with a top fashion and beauty photographer, utilizing selected looks from each student's planned portfolio. Proofs are provided for the student's review, and the Julie Nation Staff assists in the selection of prints for the student’s portfolio. Students will own their CD of photos. The cost of prints are not included in the program’s tuition. Students may have printing of photos accomplished elsewhere, or through Julie Nation’s photo service.
Agency Procedures
To advance one's career in modeling a thorough understanding of agency registration and procedures is needed. Model's release forms and contracts are reviewed. The composition of the resume is accomplished. Mock agency interviews are performed by students in class.
TV Commercial Workshop
On-camera performances and critiques prepare the student with script reading and auditioning skills. The student uses actual TV commercials and voice development skills are reviewed.
