Hi, thanks for being interviewed, what was the inspiration behind Fresh Face SD?
Just like everyone else, I began stardoll being invisible to the stardoll blog world. Even with a portfolio with beauty parlour headshots, it wasn't until I actually made a photo shoot of myself when I finally started being accepted as a model. Why? Because sometimes just a headshot isn't enough to be able to picture a model, well, modelling. And that's how I thought of Fresh Face SD. A place for new models to showcase themselves better in their portfolio, as well as make photo shoots for more well-known models once in a while too. I never knew that it would be this big, to the point that I would hire another graphic designer to cover some of the photo shoots or that it would be featured on sites like MDM and Editorialized.
You are an amazing graphic designer, what advice would you give to aspiring graphic designers and models?
Thank you! My advice for an aspiring graphic designer is to practice, practice, and practice. Until you are satisfied with your graphics enough to make your debut. Of course, even when you make your debut, you will always still improve the more you do. But it's always better showing your graphics to the world for the first time after you've had some practice so you make a stronger, bolder, and better looking debut.
As for aspiring models, here’s my advice: Come to Fresh Face SD and get a photo shoot done ;) Jk it is a great way to make your portfolio better but there are definitely a lot of other ways to succeed. As a model, either you have to have a great face, or connections. If you're lacking in connections, make your model ORIGINAL looking. I can't stress that enough. Although she should look somewhat attractive, focus on making her have a very unique face, whether by giving her a rarely used face shape or by using lips that are rarely used or by applying makeup that stands up. A typical Barbie face will NOT get you noticed as a model! Also, ALWAYS apply. This may be the biggest fashion collection ever and you feel like you don't stand a chance, but you never know! Unknown models ARE chosen when their face looks good with the collection.
Thanks for that, when did you start designing?
I started designing during the previous fashion week. I tried different techniques, played with hair, face enhancements, poses, shading, and clothes until I felt I got my graphics to a point where I wanted them to be. Also, hunnigall and wooldoor have great tutorials on their graphic websites that I used to get me started a few months ago.
What are your future ambitions on stardoll?
On stardoll, my future ambition is probably a combination of making Fresh Face Models the biggest modelling agency on stardoll, as well as a the success of a secret project that I can't say but that will be revealed in a few months ;)In real life, my ambitions are all very academic. I will be going to a University for the first year this year and am both nervous and excited! And my ambition there, I guess, is to be successful with my classes :)Thank you for the interview!
