Types Of Modelling: Commercial Modelling

Commercial modelling is a very big part of modelling but with fewer restrictions to size and height than fashion modelling. It is known also as character modelling.

Models working in commercial modelling can earn some money as they are selling their image to some products and this part of market usually has a lot of money.

The models are presenting and promoting products or services. Depending on the product the model should represent a target group but should be a bit more ideal, for example if the product is targeted to mothers or teenagers the model should look like an average mother/teenager but should have something interesting in the look. 

Commercial modelling usually is being displayed on product packagings, brochures, leaflets, billboards, posters and also is for TV commercials.

There is no specific height for a commercial model, it will depend on what the client wants and what the model can offer. For example if a client wants a head shot of a model smiling, for a tooth paste ad, they are not going to pay much attention to models shape or height. They would want an attractive, healthy looking face with a great set of pearly teeth. Usually the way you smile is quite important as most often models advertising different products are smiling. It doesn't mean there wouldn't be someone needing a sad or angry face in the commercial. For working in commercial modelling it's good to know how to present yourself, to know a bit of acting and be able to make different face expressions. The producers also pay attention to personality of the model because it reflects on the photos (especially if you have to look angry or disappointed on the picture). The model needs to be flexible when it comes to the look.

If you are not sure if you are appropriate for this type of modelling, sign up for a test shoot with Candi Models and try out how your face expressions look in front of professional photographers.

Animated Photography

Today we would like to present you something we find very interesting. 

New York Fashion Photographer Jamie Beck in collaboration with web designer Kevin Burg have presented recently an amazing gallery. 

They made an exhibition of photos which at first sight look just like professional photography shots. However when you look closer there is something about the photos, you just can't stop looking at them. They are animated 'GIFS'. 

The inventors called them 'cinemagraphs'. 

Basically they separated some parts of the pictures and made them move by putting into GIF file few pictures in sequence. It looks amazing. Because only one selected part of the picture is moving you still get the feeling of this being a photo as all the other things stand still. 

It looks like the photography reached another dimension. 

Of course you won't be able to print it and have this effect on paper but nowadays it's not a problem at all, with all the flat digital screens we simply replace paper with 'digital sheets'. their gallery got lots of reviews and all the Internet is talking about this phenomena. 

People love the concept. 

Does it mean that some other artists will continue to apply this technique?And soon the concept will be something we will be expecting from modern photography? 

Is it a new chapter of photography?

Photo 3 Solutions Ltd in Kent SCAM?

Candi Models have decided to put an update to that post as we see that Photo 3 Solutions are very concerned about our company, they even pay more attention to damage us that to praise themselves, apparently they have nothing to offer but slander other companies. We hope you won't make up your minds based on one malicious person.

 
So who are these people out to tarnish and damage our hard built reputation? Well the primary culprit is a company called Photo3.co.uk. Photo3 Photography Solutions Ltd, which will shortly be landed with a £1m slander and defamation of character lawsuit, has posted defamatory comments about various studios online where it alludes to them being a scam.

Photo 3 Solutions are UK Kent Wedding Photographers and Andrew James is not a fashion photographer. He is simply a wedding photographer whose alleged 'fashion photography' amounts to little more than shooting topless girls. 

He is simply a vindictive, jealous and malicious party out to damage other studios.

He has done this merely in an attempt to steal clients from genuine organisations for his own profit.

Photo 3 Solutions work is very poor standard, make your own mind up by looking at the quality of their website.

All they do is slander other professional photographers for their own personal gain. In the last two years they were trying to slander the reputable photographic studios.

Photo 3 Solutions has been reported to an Agency Inspector at the BERR.

We have not been able to get the slanderous blog post withdrawn, this is mainly because we have no choice but to wait for  the legal procedure to take its natural course.

We hope everybody will keep in mind who is writing the bad comments about us and make his own mind based on your own experience what kind of company we really are.
