Undergoing a photo shooting is not easy yet is FUN...!!!

Whoa... Being a model is not easy as it seems to be...! Being a model you must have a good smile on your face and your expression have to be very real even though you are not in the real situation/mood. Your brain need to be always ready to think/react/imagine of what expression you have required to do. Sometimes the art director/photographer would want you to have a very serious look on your face but sometimes he/she just want you to have a smile on your face, and etc.
When they want you to laugh, you really have to crack some jokes in your head in order to make yourself laugh as real as it can be. Even simple smile can be differentiate into lots of types. A certain smile or laughter can resemble that you look like an idiot/nuts but some smile can really make you look cool, surprised, happy, and etc.
I have just experienced it last week for 2 days. The photo shooting really takes up a lot of time and most of us have to wait there and take turns to take photos. Because the art director have to think and arrange who is suitable for that particular scene/situation. Does the person have the look for that part. Not only that, he have to mix match the colours of what we are wearing for the top, in order to have the contrast and to get the best effect out of it.
During one of the shots, me and JinDi have to laugh and as if we had a nice joke. But, for that shot, he really crack some dirty jokes and we both really laugh and I can't stand him, he is funny. When we were so called 'tortured/forced' to laugh the time, the art director his assistants were laughing at us also and they seem to be happy. Due to seeing both of us laughing like mad people. Hahahaha...
Other than that, we (me, Arvin, Melissa, JinDi, & co.) even crack about cheese cakes. Due to, we are holding a poster of a cheese cake. The art director also tell us about a new type of cake whereby is his own recipe which is 'Durian, Cheese, Butter...???' someting la... we couldn't stand him also. The art director is also a very happy and funny guy.
I get to make some new friends from Mass Comm. during this photo shooting. It's an amazing experience and memories. We really enjoy man...
-will upload the photo when I received them.
