Bodypaint Runway Show
"BODY OF WORK"
Use this page to help you learn more about the show and how things will be organized. Below is a list of rules and basic guidelines to offer a better understanding what you should expect when walking in, and what all is expected of you regarding participation. If you have any additional questions, comments, or concerns please contact @wild.yet.zealous on IG or click the chat bubble via the home page.
Overview
The "Body of Work" series aims to intertwine the creative genius of visual artists and the innate beauty of human anatomy into an unforgettable experience that encompasses a higher level of appreciation for people. We're all very familiar with traditional fashion shows, but my goal is to create a new dimension of attention that focuses more on the individuals involved and adds more depth instead of settling for what lies on the surface. Thank you for helping make my artistic vision come to life.

Rules Of The Runway
-
DO NOT walk too fast on the red carpet. Please allow all spectators to visualize and internalize the art before them.

DO NOT communicate to anyone in the crowd directly unless you know them personally. Focus on the walk.

Please keep a professional mindset while blessing the runway. You may walk however way you'd like.

Once you make it to the end of the runway, you can pose however you want for the camera.
-
Try to stay on beat with the music so that you can keep a good rhythm throughout your walk.
-
If you feel nervous or anxious at any time on the red carpet please don't hesitate to turn around and walk back. The host will announce the next model and you will be supported accordingly. :)
-
Once you do your walk and come back please make sure you are close enough to hear when all models will be called to the stage.
