I was so excited, being able to experience the 'behind the scenes' for one of my favourite programmes couldn't be more thrilling. The fashion, styling, back drops, photography, make up and hair was an intrest i wanted to continue my journey in of exploring more and more!!This was an oppurtunity of which all these things come together; and it was.
I woke up at the crack of dawn, got on my compfortable shoes and headed out for the busy day ahead; ( i did put that extra effort seeing as all the models were there!). I arrived in central london, one of my favourite shopping areas, nothing beats selfridges!, and walked to the studio of which the episode was being filmed.
It wasnt so much a studio, but more like a very chique town house with empty rooms.
The first assignment was to help Endzone Make-Up artists, I looked at the pictures they had been sent from the PR team of what look they were going for on this shoot. It was very big hair, sexy but classy outfits, but the shoes were the product we were trying to emphasise, the shoes had to stand out, and that was the PR roll, that this will be achieved! This epidisode was a challenge, and who ever had the best photo which highlighted the shoes; the prize would be that the winners photo would be in the window in faith shoes store, I wouldn't mind that for a prize!!
During the day I helped with the Make-up and Hair artists on the set; ensuring that they had a list of what each model was wearing and the time schedules for each shoot; so they could plan the Make Up. This experience was overwhelming; it gave me a much wider knowledge of how everyones roles are important for the day too run smoothley: from the photographer, stylist and model. I was very fortunate to work on a live set, and be hand on to assist Endzone on the day. From this experience, the fashion and styling intrested me much more rather than the make up and hair. I walked away from this day, wanting to have many days like that again!
Britians Next Top Model was very exciting, and I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience.
