Hope you’ve had a good week everyone! I know I’ve had an extremely busy one preparing for Levels 1a and 1b of the Foundation Course, both of which are starting on Saturday! And of course, let’s not forget FEC 5 next week. Pretty hectic! For those who have sent me mails asking me to do one thing or the other for them, my sincere apologies. I’m am ticking off my to-do list… slowly but surely. Starting with this one… The Face of Models Village!
Completely stunning flyer right?! I thought so too. But was even more impressed when I visited the site. Targeted at models, a vital part of the fashion industry, the site, and indeed the competition, has been established to help “discover and promote models”.
Here are the details as provided by the organizer, Ali d-hybrid as he calls himself on BB. 😉
Modeling in Africa, could be a challenging career, especially in countries like Nigeria, where there are poor structures in place to monitor the activities of model management. Before the establishment of www.modelsvillage.tv, we observed the lack of coordination in the manner in which models were being used and managed in Nigeria, and since setting up the site we have seen relative improvements in the manner people do business with models.
People have been networking and doing business in the modelsvillage online community for years and the Face of Modelsvillage, is one way of boosting the chances of models getting noticed the right way.
So you have been attending screenings for models searches and simply don’t see how the models actually benefits from the contests, right? Well here is one contest that is totally worth it.
