The Dare To Live team is proud to present the First Annual
Model Expo! If you are an aspiring model\, seasoned model\, curious\, or
cynic this conference is for you! The First Annual Model Expo is a confer
ence for models from all walks of life! It is not meant to brand you\, bu
t to give you tools\, ideas\, opportunities. There will be a 'marketplace
' of vendors\, business professionals\,talent agencies\, photographers e
tc.... and as if that wasn't enough there is a Social Networking AFTER PA
RTY!!!
It is a two day conference
You were probably r ecommended this seminar for the sole fact that the people around you\, (a nd possibly you)\, believe you should be a model. The way you carry yours elf may already hint of being a beautiful diva… you may possess certain exotic and unique features that only you can shine… you may even have an irrefutable sense of style and have the know on the latest fashion tre nds… in any case I know for a fact that there isn’t a single mix-up o r mistake that you are here in this moment… at this time… about to si gn up for this course ! You have the makings to be a model & I know you c an do it. This course will teach you\, not only how to find the inner mod el in yourself\, but how to establish yourself correctly as a model. How to brand yourself as a role model/brand ambassador\, how to obtain gigs\, how to market yourself\, how to network and present yourself…. It will teach you all the aspects that you need to know to stand out from all of the other faces in the industry. Are you ready to get started?!
\nNow\, before you write yourself off I would like to just note several thin gs:
\n1. There are all different types of modeling. Haute-couture\, runway\, fashion\, lifestyle\, commercial\, fitness\, inspirational\, bur lesque\, lingerie\, editorial\, foot\, face\, hands\, and pageant modelin g!! I only listed a few\, but there are thirteen different modeling possi bilities in store for you. All of them require different body types\, dif ferent races\, different facial features\, different skin and hair types and all of them are to be celebrated!
\n2. If you wouldn’t nor mally look at an opportunity like this then know that someone took their time to do that for you. That means that somebody believes YOU have the m akings to model. If you are willing to take up this adventure it is simpl y up to YOU to choose what field you want to specialize in and commit to it…. who knows\, maybe your friend saw something in you that you don’ t even see in yourself!
\nThis conference will be an exciting course filled with practical activities\, a shopping challenge\, prizes\, guest speakers and more! Come prepared to learn new things\, refresh your memo ry\, laugh\, network & change your modeling future!! Be sure to bring a s nack\, water\, notebook & portfolios [if you have one].
