Videos can be filmed on your phone with Cap Cut, TikTok or any other video editing app.

 If you need to learn how to use TikTok, please watch this how to video. https://youtu.be/Svr1QSIjTzs 

Models walk using the music "Feel The Groove" by Trapaholics, available on Spotify or listed as "Feel The Groove" by Queens Road on TikTok.  

Failure to use the correct music may result in having to redo the video or being disqualified. We need uniformity in the beat the models are walking to. Videos of past runway shows are not accepted. 

Please, make a 30 second video. Include two walks in two different walk styles. One walk needs to be a NYC High Fashion type walk, and the other in a friendly local show style walk.

No submission will be accepted without a video unless attending the live MODEL CALL.
