March 11, 201312 yr Author Yes guys you are right, there is much work to do that she would get a good book to be outstanding.Because there are thousands of beautiful new comer models in the szene who also want get step in the international szene. Look at New faces from One Management they are all great and : they also have great books .I always wondering why some of her best pictures out of Cosmo edit Jungle fever are missing and those great portrait images from the final in koeln.I dont understand why she has no test shoots, are you sure she is not allowed to do? Amelie has organized for herself great test shoots with some good fotographers for her book.For me I think Luisa is too passive, she is waiting what will happen. and dont tell Luisa is not allowed to do testshoots because she is the winner. Let us wait and see what will happen the next month.But I am no more optimistic as I was some weeks before. No remarkable jobs since winning the cycle and normally a young model should have weekly shooting or jobs to improve.
March 11, 201312 yr I can't be sure, as I don't know the contract. But Jana told a few ugly details... There must be a reason why so many GNTMs already quit the contract. And yes, I think that things are much different for the winner, as she has to represent the format.Yes, we should just wait and see... I don't like to judge Luisa without knowing what and why things happen.
March 11, 201312 yr I think, there is no reasonable connection between the fact of winning the show and an alleged order to make no test shootings to pep up the setcard. Why do you think, that OE forbids any kind of proactive development? The first thing to represent the show well it is necessary to have visible success. Not just for the potential target audience of 12 years old girls. So it's exactly the opposite: great photos (editorials, testshootings, good setcard) and great jobs, that could be in web circulation and everybody would pay tribute to luisa, OE and the whole TV-formate. In my opinion, OE have the same old questionable connections they have since years, unable to manage a "real" model. Plus the passivity of Luisa. Btw, i don't think, that the two NY-Agency visits are self-arranged by Luisa. Rather organized by Hayo, Brewster or someone else.
March 11, 201312 yr I've read an interview with Jana, she told some interesting details. For example, Günther explicitly told her, that she has to do exactly what he says, and that she is not allowed to act on her own.We already had this discussion in TMF, that OE does not act logical by presenting a successful model, but we/I hoped that OE would change.
March 11, 201312 yr That's absolutely right, that OE doesn't act logical, but i can't see the difference between for example Amelie and Luisa. Just because Luisa wins the Show? Why should it not allowed to make testshots just for the winning girl!? I think, a big part of the lost yield of chances is indepted by luisa. Maybe it's right, that the girls have to do, what Günther says, but what could be a good reason to forbid nice testshootings. It's for free and OE will have a bigger range of representable pictures for their home page. To connect Photographers, you have to be a little bit offensive and cannot sit and wait in Ostfriesland. The normal way is that the agency arranges shootings, but apparently this will never happen.
March 11, 201312 yr In fact, Luisa would get testshoots by sitting and waiting in Ostfriesland, there were enough photographers asking for testshoots on her fansite (!), some of them quite good. If they even ask on the fansite, they surely also asked at OE. But not a single known testshoot happened in Germany. Why should Luisa reject them? She always arranged little shootings backstage when beeing on shows with many photographers. The testshoots itself are free, but I guess OE would have to pay expenses. I also don't understand it, and why Luisa had 2 shoots in 1 Week when she was in Zurich. And why does MM not arrange shoots?And you can see at her actual portfolio, how important this is for OE, they added the first text only page from the IN-Editorial.
March 11, 201312 yr No, these photographers were no good ones, that requested her on luisa's facebook site, just semipro dudes, beauty and cataloge things, partly very provincial. I checked them all, and it's really long time ago. If you really want good pictures, you have to move your ass. But yes, in the first place she have to leave OneEins and then i think we can assess her ambitions. For now it's all speculation.
March 11, 201312 yr Author I am also so tired... let us wait again and see we cannot do other things like this.And in this waiting time I will go back to the beautiful and special 90 th supermodels who neverdisappointed their fans in their great work.I think all is open with Luisas carreer because we dont know her thoughts and her plans. All is speculative.But with see testshoots I also think like Zeronull.
March 11, 201312 yr Next Issue of cosmopolitan usually comes close to the 20th every month, she might be in that atleast.
March 12, 201312 yr I don't wanna offend somebody in here, but does anybody work in fashion industry in here?You should know, that it is not the most important thing to have the best online portfolio. Some agencys taking more care of it and some just not. The agencys sending packeges of the models to the clients and photographers, if there getting a request for a job or something. If the inquiries fits, to the model the agency sending the packege with measure, portfolio and polas to the client, that he can decide, which model he wanna see or book.I haven't seen which photographers have ask on FB Luisa to shoot with her, but if they ask her for a test on the official fb site, they cannot be really good. Good photographers would contact MM or OE for a test and they decide then, if the photographer is good enough to make her book stronger or not.And Amelies selforganized shoots aren't good. Besides there is a diffrence between winner and the others, the contracts are diffrent. they aren't the representing faces. Jana just said, she could not decide, which jobs she wanna do at berlin fw for example. The only hope we have, is leaving OE as soon as possible. The career of other contestants really started after leaving OE, like Marie and so on.And it does not exist something like a exclusiv for a magazine, just for campaigns and shows. Cause they pay you for it. You don't earn any money with editorials.
March 12, 201312 yr cutlers, no offence taken... I think we all agree, Luisa must leave OE... No matter what it costs, having a career easily compensate the losses.
March 13, 201312 yr GDS International Shoe Fair 2013, Duesseldorf Luisa opened the "Upper Style" Show
March 13, 201312 yr Author Thank you Thuesday for this update and your quick picture finding.Sheila:-)
March 14, 201312 yr She looks great, just wish she didn't pull her hands up from her pockets for that hip pose.The next cosmo cover is also out with Lena Gercke on the cover, might have to wait until next month for Luisa.
