Modeling is not easy. I am not being a cynic here. Done right it can be a very demanding job and has much more to do than just ‘looking pretty’. There is posing involved, understanding lighting, makeup, and hard physical work. This has always been the case. But looking at the job from the pink glasses of the eighties somehow makes it all so dreamy.

Found Footage Fest “showcases footage from videos that were found at garage sales and thrift stores and in warehouses and dumpsters across the country“. This time they put together a compilation of modeling tutorials, tips and interviews featuring Denise Richards, Tiffani-Amber Thiessen and others. I am not sure, but maybe it should have stayed on VHS.

Put your leggings on and remember to practice your ‘Ay’, ‘ee’, ‘Ay’, ‘Oh’ and your action poses.
