Agenda
Model arrival and setup
Info: Model shows up at 5:30pm to get ready for poses.
Gesture - five 1 minute poses, three 5 minute poses
Info: We typically start with five 1 minute poses to allow artists to warm up and modes to present more dynamic poses that can't be held for longer periods. If time allows we will break for 5 minutes, then move in to three 5 minute poses. After the 5 minute poses, a 5 minute break for models to stretch and artists to socialize and fix charcoal drawings will be provided.
15 minute poses
Info: We will do two 15 minute poses with 5 minute breaks in between.
30 minute pose
Info: We finish with one 30 minute pose or one longer pose broken up in 15-30 minute segments.
