HOW SHAZ TAKES MODELING

New models often ask themselves whether they have what it takes to become a model

You are likely to hear that to be a model you need to be beautiful, tall and slender with perfect proportions. Now this is certainly true for high fashion models, where designers want one type of model that they feel shows off their designs in the best way.

However, if you do not fit this criteria, don’t despair as there are many other areas that you can work in successfully and lucratively as a model. The modeling industry needs all different shapes and sizes. It ranges from the models who are required for the runways of Paris and Milan to those being seen in the background of TV commercials. You need to find the right fit for you and your place in the industry. To help you with this we have listed the different types of modeling work that’s available and the criteria for each, and as with most things in life there are always exceptions.

Shaz explains how a good modeling portfolio and how you should show yourself to the world!

Find out what makes a good modeling portfolio and how you should show yourself to the world!

Before putting together a modeling portfolio, it is important to know what type of modeling you can do. A portfolio of a Freelance model would probably include a variety of different types of photos, while a portfolio of a high fashion model would have high fashion images, and so on. So be realistic from the very onset of your career to avoid any setbacks or rejections due to the fact that you are attempting to enter a type of modeling that is not best suited for you.

You should know that your modeling portfolio is a true first impression of yourself as a model. A portfolio will always be the first thing that agencies and clients look at before they even choose to see you in person. And for that reason, it is highly recommended to focus on the building of an impressive modeling portfolio that will enable you to establish a successful carrier point.

Pay attention to the quality of the photos you choose to include in your portfolio. These photos need to impress agencies and clients alike and make you stand out from the rest. So always aim to project the best possible image of yourself.

Here are a few things to remember when building a modeling portfolio:

It is better to have fewer photos that are great, than having more photos that are of poorer quality. So the rule of thumb is that less is more. As a new model, your portfolio should have 6 - 12 photos, especially when you are presenting yourself to a new agency. As an established model, your portfolio should ideally have anywhere between 10 and 25 photos.

Always keep in mind that the purpose of a modelling portfolio is not only to show your good looks, but it should also demonstrate your ability to portray different characters, age ranges and personality. For this reason you should include good headshots without makeup, these are called Polaroids, (to get professional Polaroids check out modelmanagement.com's photo sessions and see when the next shoot is happening in your area). It's also important to have good body shots, with swimwear or tight-fitting clothes, especially if you plan to apply to the larger model markets.

In terms of the type of photos to include in your model portfolio, there are no specific rules that you should follow, but just remember to keep your portfolio as professional as possible by only including high quality photos. Do not feel pressured to include pictures where you are in a swimsuit or lingerie, unless that is the type of modeling you want to work in. As long as you know what type of modeling you are looking to do, that should be enough to give you some direction as to what kind of pictures to include.

Dutch Consortium to partner Makueni farmers in promoting horticulture.

A Dutch consortium has pledged to partner with Makueni horticultural farmers by providing funds to enhance horticultural development in the County.

The consortium, a conglomerate of HIVOS and SNP Non Governmental Organizations, sent a delegation of its officers to meet the farmers’ association leaders and the Makueni county leadership, and to assess the viability of the project before the funds are released.

This follows a proposal presented to the Consortium by the Makueni Fruit Farmers Association seeking a Sh5Million grant, to put up fruit collection centers, a farmer training programme as well as setting up an agrochemical and farm input center.

The collection centers are meant to standardize the prices of horticultural products while eliminating brokers from the market chain, and who have been blamed for exploiting farmers.

The agrochemical and farm input center is meant to supply farmers with the right pesticides and farm inputs at affordable prices, to ensure quality products that satisfy the European Food Safety Authority regulations.

Executive Committee Member in charge of Trade, Industry and Cooperatives Alidan Mbinda said the County government will work closely with the farmers and the Dutch Consortium to ensure success of the project.

Mulei Mak

Millions of kikuyu lorries trecking into Makueni to ferry away your mangoes (ngunia moja@ 300 bob) which must be retailed @ sh.3000 in Nrb. What has bn done to tip off this exploitation especially to our grandmoms who r doing anything to sell 10 mangoes @ 10 to feed hudreds of their orphaned grandkids? I hear there is a plan 4 a fruit processing plant, believe it or not u will one day curse why it was built cz things might turn worse- imagin taking 5 tonnes there then u r duped that 1 was reject, + tranport, coop membership then waiting for another 100 years for dividents! Where will u get easy customers apart from nairobi (unaeza acha maembe kwa muembe uende ukanunue chemicals kwa chupa ?) In short the gvmnt shd identify markets for the fresh fruits in major towns & if possible for export na kila mtu alipwe immedietly. period na ka kuna kitu inajengwa ni Kilala kwa sababu ndo ina michungwa nyiingi
