Feel Out of This World with Models Direct

Plenty of clients turn to Models Direct to find models for photoshoots or for an advert, but every so often a really interesting assignment comes along. This was just the case when the modelling agency worked with 3D computer programmer Lee Perry-Smith for his company Infinite Realities.

[UKPRwire, Thu Mar 18 2010] Plenty of clients turn to Models Direct to find models for photoshoots or for an advert, but every so often a really interesting assignment comes along. This was just the case when the modelling agency worked with 3D computer programmer Lee Perry-Smith for his company Infinite Realities.

Infinite Realities specialise in creating 3D virtual characters for computer games and films. Lee is currently working on creating characters for a police video and needed twelve male and female models to pose as inspiration.

The models were required to sit and pull different faces while they were photographed by synchronised digital cameras. These images were then used to create characters for Lee’s client. This is all a bit technical for Models Direct to get their head round but if Infinite Realities’ past work is anything to go by the results will be excellent.

The models came from around the East of England, not too far away from Models Direct’s head office. A broad range of ages was represented, including forty-nine year old Richard and his eighteen-year-old son Tom. Models Direct have received great feedback from both Lee and the models who were selected.

“Tremendous!” responded Lee when asked how the assignments went. “All models were on time and Lisa at Models Direct was superb in organising the whole thing,” he continued, saying the service couldn’t have been better – or quicker.

This was the first assignment for model Steven after being registered with the modelling agency for a month. He offered his report of the assignment. “My assignment for Infinite Realities was not your typical modelling shoot!” Steven exclaims. “After having about forty pictures taken, Lee then used a 3D camera/scanner to build up a three dimensional image of my entire head. It was good to see the workings of up-to-the-minute technology!”

All of the models who have provided feedback have been very positive about the assignment. “I particularly enjoyed seeing a snapshot of what I could look like in the digital world!” model Samantha told Models Direct. “A fun and different assignment.”

“It was a great experience,” another model, Daniel, informed the modelling agency. “I had a lot of fun and thoroughly enjoyed it. The best thing was doing something different from my normal job and having fun with it.”
