The Federal Office for Magical Creatures is a fictional supreme federal authority for the affairs of citizens of magical descent, i.e., vampires, werewolves, demons, and other mythical creatures. And of course, a modeling job occasionally arises at the office, because the “Office”, based in the north of Bonn, includes a creative satirical portal about fantasy themes and cosplay, as well as an online bookshop and a publishing house for fantasy literature.
Male Models Wanted for Model Job
Occasionally, we are looking for male models for a modeling job to present shirts, hoodies, Stanley/Stella urban streetwear, and fantasy novels. But also to have pictures of appropriately styled werewolves, elves, vampires, demons, etc., available for satirical contributions and press releases. All under the heading “The vampire himself only wants his coffin in the green with geraniums in front of the crypt, and everything else is Catholic atrocity propaganda.”
Currently, a TV channel wants to film an episode about the BAfmW for the show “Germany’s Greatest Secrets”. Of course, with “real” mythical creatures. For this, film footage of a model shooting will be created. We also have new books and other products for which we are advertising this modeling job.
We are looking for athletically active students, e.g., sports students, swimmers, dancers, or fitness fans, who enjoy being styled by our make-up artists, posing in front of the camera, and transforming into an attractive vampire/werewolf dreamboy who, slightly testosterone-fueled, presents himself against a suitable backdrop as the dream of all girls and gay boys. Clichés (Twilight, Teenwolf, Gladiator, Vikings, Chronicles of the Underworld) are alive and can be fun. But besides the muscular hero, the delicate elf with shirt size XS is also in demand. Also welcome with an LGBTQ background.
The shootings take place at locations such as the chapel in the Old Cemetery in Bonn, in front of the Sterntor, or in the studio of photographer Barbara Frommann, depending on the occasion and purpose.
Examples can be found in the picture galleries on our website:
- St. George’s Chapel in the Old Cemetery in Bonn
- Post-pubescent mating rituals of endemic werewolf populations
- Home office in hell
What are the Requirements for Models?
-
For the demon modeling job, UV-reflective contact lenses and body paint were used. (Photo: Barbara Frommann) athletic, slim, well-trained physique
- no shyness to work shirtless/in swimming trunks in front of the camera
- max. 3-day beard
- Independent insertion of contact lenses – it’s not difficult, for insurance reasons we can only explain it, but we cannot insert the lenses for the model during a shoot.
- Experience as a model? It can’t hurt, but it’s not a prerequisite. For us, it’s primarily about the fun of fantasy and creative photo shoots.
The application for the modeling job should include:
- a photo, shirtless selfie in front of the mirror, after which we will decide which mythical creature will be shot.
- Body measurements: height, weight, shoe size, waist circumference and leg length, and shirt sizes (from XS to 3XL). Some textiles are custom-made, for example, another shooting is planned on the Rhine bank with male mermaids, for which the fish fins will be custom-made.
In the preliminary discussion for each individual modeling job, we agree with our models on what will take place in front of the camera. The shootings last between 3 – 6 hours, mostly from early afternoon into the evening. The fee is determined according to effort and agreement. Of course, our models also receive a photo series for their own use.
