A photographer friend of mine is looking for a 13-14 year old girl with auburn hair to model for the cover of an upcoming YA book. If you know of anyone who maybe interested please message me and I will put you in touch with the photographer. The following is the model call issued:
MODEL CALL - I am looking for five kids ages 13-14 to model for a YA novel book cover.
It is the first book in a series of seven. The shoot for the first book is nonpaying, but each model will receive a signed copy of the book when it goes to press. Then, depending on sales of the first book, for the next books, the modeling jobs for those covers may be paid. Models would need to commit to all seven book covers so that there is consistency across covers in the book series. Estimated release dates for each additional book are every 6-10 months. The book editor may use the photographs as is or turn them into drawings. The images will also be used for promoting the books.
Here is the character description of the models in need. Please ONLY apply if you match one of these descriptions and tell me what character you look like. Please provide three recent photos, specifically one full length showing your whole body, one close up of your face, and one side profile. Models must be able to wear the clothing description to the photo shoot. You must message me this info and not simply reply in the comments “interested”.
Samantha: Is the main character. She is a tomboy who wears jeans, t-shirts and a flannel overtop. She has green eyes with thick, mid chest to waist long auburn hair (a darker form of red hair, as she is half Irish). She is described as somewhat plain but with unique features. Her body weight is average as not too thin and not overweight.
Clyde: (FILLED) Has dark hair almost black with bangs that fall over his brows. His eyes are almost as dark. He is pale/light skinned with freckles across his nose. (freckles are a plus but can be digitally added) His body weight is average as not too thin and not overweight. He wears olive cargo pants and black t-shirt.
Josh: Josh is described as a cute kid with hazel brown eyes and messy, spiked, short brown hair. He wears jeans and polo shirts. His body weight is average as not too thin and not overweight.
Anastasia: (FILLED) Is described as very pretty and delicate. Her body weight is thin as she is a dancer. She has long, blond hair with pale blue eyes. She wears dresses and a blue one is described in a scene. She is Russian, so looking fitting features.
Matthew: (FILLED) Has shoulder length dirty blond hair with blue eyes. His body weight is average as not too thin and not overweight. His clothing should be jeans with a t-shirt and a button down shirt over it.
Once I have selected all the models, I will schedule a photo shoot. The shoot will most likely take place in Columbia Maryland. I need one image of everyone together and one of just Samantha.
