I am definitely not an attention seeker, but it was a really good feeling to know that the cameras were on me, and a feeling I would like again very much. It was brilliant fun. I wasn&#8217;t nervous at all, because I knew I had been chosen on the strength of my e-portfolio, and all I had to do was follow instructions. I most enjoyed being told that I looked good, and that I was doing a good job, and being in that sort of environment; a white studio with lots of cameras. It felt professional. The assignment involved striking various poses while standing in the middle of a circle of cameras. The poses were demonstrated by the photographer first. I was given props for some of the poses. The whole experience was great for my self esteem, and I learned a few more things about what models are used for. I would recommend it to everyone, because I got a real buzz from it. My advice to anyone thinking about pursuing work in the talent industry is to give it a go, and forget about any insecurities you may have, because you never know what will happen. I originally decided to join up with Models Direct for a bit of exposure, in the hope that it could lead to bigger and better things, so that I might have something to tell my son one day, that he could be proud of his daddy for.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re interested in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.modelsdirect.com\/locations\/worldwide.html\">becoming a model<\/a> like Gregg, or an actor, singer, dancer, entertainer or musician, you can <a href=\"http:\/\/www.modelsdirect.com\" target=\"_blank\">apply at Models Direct<\/a>, where you\u2019ll also find a range of information on modelling, acting, dancing, singing, entertaining and music, designed to help you when choosing a modelling agency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;I absolutely loved the modelling assignment with Models Direct.
