"So what else do we need to become successful models in the business of modeling? One of the things we do here at W Talent providing classes for all of our talent, we teach skin care, makeup, hair design. We do photo movement, we do runway classes, and then the acting division, we talk a lot of about what it takes to present to camera. How to slate, how to audition for a commercial, how to do cold readings. Some acting skills with improv. We have great teachers. And one of the things that we do here, is we do something like how to create a great portfolio. Now it's important to have a portfolio because what this does is it shows the range of a model to a client. So what we do at W is we provide you with a great book, and then we provide you through our program, with wonderful photo shoot opportunities. Each one highlighting a different type of personality that you can project to the camera. We do bathing suit shots, we do business shots, we teach you how to do gowns, and how to work with very, very many different types of people and also solo work in front of the camera. So now, we're going to move into this studio and bring you to an actual photo shoot."
