WRAP UP: Wow... what a great day! An involved crowd, loads of prizes given away, funds raised for Ovarian Cancer, and more advice than models could handle from our amazing panel of specialists.
We know many were inspired while others got work and agency offers from the live casting session. Long legs were certainly a plenty and we look forward to seeing more of you in print. A special thank you to Joyce from LUCID LABEL for jumping in at last minute too. Please take a moment to look at the sponsors listed on the main conference page and Facebook. They made it happen, and we would love to see them and you back in 2015 bigger and better.... we might even hold a special event throughout the year, so stay connected, stay safe, and stay beautiful!
27th MARCH: Media launch today with gorgeous tall models wearing Nicola Finetti dresses, and star model Emily Scott even joined us. Did we tell you that legendary International designer Nicola Finetti will be with us? Well we are excited! Many other new additions in the last weeks... a top TVC casting agent is confirmed, and a bunch of designers, model scouts and business brands are joining the live casting session to find good new talent in our unique environment. 1 week to go... its time to get your tickets!
12th MARCH: Just weeks away now and we are proud to welcome another guest speaker EMILY SCOTT. A proven International glamour model with 30+ covers to her name, many TV show roles and appearances, and even voted the worlds sexiest woman many times over. Im sure she know what she's doing, so come along to meet Emily, be inspired, and find out her secrets to success.
4th MARCH: Just a month away and the buzz is building as we launch on Instagram. Prizes from The Star, Sass&Bide, and many others coming in. We introduce the fun search for "Sydney's longest legs", and even hear credible rumours that a massive worldwide name is going to drop by on the day. Who could it be... wait n see! ;) Numbers are limited, so dont wait too late or you might miss out.
11th FEBRUARY: A great day as we confirm partnership with Event Cinemas George Street to be our amazing venue and can now announce the conference date. SAT 5th April, which happens to coincide with the start of Sydney Fashion Week. We now focus on spreading the word, talking to more agencies, and locking in our celebrity guests.
Keep updated and share the love via our Australian Model Conference page on Facebook too.
JANUARY: After small set backs in securing a venue sponsor, some of who tried to add many additional fees to make big profit, we are not disturbed and carry on. Rather than grab any venue, we plan for greatness, so the conference will likely be moved back a month to secure this and more great sponsors. Many sponsors are coming forward offering all kinds of goodies that we appreciate much, and are pleased that it looks to be a super event for those attending. Patience creates amazement! :)
DECEMBER: Its just before Christmas and so much work is underway behind the scenes. Venues, sponsors, personalities... we will not rest until we get the best. Sorry sounds a little corny! haha
Supporting Ovarian Cancer Australia as part of the first ever model conference in the country makes us feel so alive. Ovarian cancer awareness, charity fundraising, and uniting models with industry professionals to build a positive future is something not to miss, so we hope you spread the word.
Come join us on Facebook and Twitter too. Merry Christmas! x
