Sunday 3 July 2011





It's been a busy week in Shanghai for me. I had 7 jobs ( 2 catalogues and 5 shows ) in the space of 5 days. 6 of the jobs were for the same client - Dazzle. They do womenswear, very cute clothes alot of colour and layering. The photoshoot was for their Winter 2011 catalogue. I shot with 2 other girls, one from Poland and another from Australia. The shoot went for about 8 hours which isnt very long compared to what I've heard about some girls doing 14 hour shoots. That's not to say that I wasn't ready to finish by the end of it. Believe it or not but its tiring getting dressed and undressed 100 times over. Especially when youre wearing 3 layers of winter clothes and were in the middle of summer. Any girl that likes to shop would understand..after 4 hours of trying on clothes at shopping mall you usually get fed up and go home.
The second shoot was for puffer jackets. Now the temperature outside was around 35degrees and humity around 90% the girls I was shooting with had started at 5:30am and shot outside until 10:30 where they meet me in the studio to then shoot the rest of the collection until 5pm.
One the of girls had a fever and cracked under the pressure from the heat and exhaustion. She burst into tears on set and ended up being sent home. So that left me and another girl to shoot the rest of the line. It was good fun there were 2 girls and 2 guys. We would take turns shooting individually then would pose together as couples and as a group.
Not sure whats on the cards for work this week yet. We go into the agency each Monday to collect our pocket money and check the calendar for any new jobs we've booked. Apart from that it will be castings as per usual.
