How to Turn Your Head on the Runway: A Video Modeling Lesson
Female models exaggerate their femininity; they sway their hips back and forth on the runway for a sexier strut. Their posture is erect in a relaxed (not stiff) kind of way. And, as the video above will demonstrate, their heads move gracefully with their bodies. Watch how the model turns her head as the last part of her body turns to leave and the first part to come around again. For more modeling lessons, click here.
A multitude of my students have had great success with modeling– print and runway. Even young models can learn how to execute the right walk, rythym and movements. In fact, one of my 4 year-old students, Carson Pak, had an audition for a modeling job. So I took Carson aside and showed him how to walk down the runway and pose like a boy model. Carson had a great time learning and just this past week Carson booked a TV Commercial for MATTEL’s ELMO doll! Congrats, Carson!
