subject: What Are The Requirements Of Preteen Models Portfolio? [print this page] The other day one of my business associates asked me what the requirements of preteen model portfolios are. As I am involved in the modeling industry, his query did not amuse me. As a matter of fact, the importance of preteen modeling is going up day by day primarily due to the umpteen varieties of products the market is flooded with targeting the preteen segment of consumers. Also the success of some preteen models in their locality prompt parents and children alike to try in this highly competitive field of show business. If any child aspires to enter the modeling field s/he needs to create an excellent portfolio. There are some requirements for a good portfolio.
The primary requirement of a good preteen models portfolio is that it should have a good collection of photos. In fact the quality of a good portfolio is partly due to the quality of the snaps. The quality of your portfolio photos is supreme and the quality of your photos can either make or mar the chances of your success. Therefore, pay attention to select the best photos. Never ever place any photos you have got in random shots. Any such impulse to put some ready-made or readily available photos will thwart your any chance of success at the outset itself. Now many aspirants do the unwise act of posting photos taken with their mobile cameras. As such snaps may lack precision and clarity, it is not recommended to use them. Try to get your photos taken by the best available photographer. Also make use of the service of a good makeup artist for the photo session.
As aforesaid, the service of a professional photographer and makeup artist is a very essential requirement of preteen models portfolio. Before the photo session you need to brief them about your requirements and act as per their directions. It is equally essential to use catchy themes, costumes and postures for the snaps. Why I suggest these because it is by the quality of your snaps that the industry professionals shortlist you. You need to be familiar with the current trends in the modeling industry in different regions and localities around the world. You can garner sufficient information on the Internet in this area. Print media publications for modeling and fashion can be helpful. Having procured the very best snaps for your portfolio, you should create your profile with your personal statistics and other details as to your professional accomplishments and achievement. You can sign up with some online modeling sites and can take membership of some professionally run modeling agency.
