Vivi Japan
Modelling in print/magazine in Tokyo? How do I start?

I admire Japanese fashion magazines such as ViVi, and would like to launch a career as a print/magazine model in Tokyo in the next few years.

I know that the "eurasian" look is very popular, and that suits me quite well, as I am part Japanese. I'm almost 15 years old and living in England.
Since I know that I should take the first step, I am actually starting Japanese language lessons in the next few weeks.

I am 5'6" tall, which isn't really that tall, but I was doing research, and surprisingly I found that print models in Japan are usually around 5'3" - 5'7"
Even top ViVi model, Lena Fujii, is 5'3".
Would my height be ok, then?

This is something I really would like to do, but i'd like to know how to get started out, and other details.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

The only way a Japanese agency could sponsor your visa is if you are already signed to an agency in your own country and have a portfolio. So you first need to find an agent in England and get a few tear sheets from professional jobs in your portfolio

Oh Yeah

$8.96

Besides the masterfully sloppy music within, this 1961 recording offers two noteworthy elements to the Mingus discography: the presence of Roland Kirk blowing his usual assortment of horn-like oddities, and the presence of Mingus himself on piano (Doug Watkins replaces Mingus on bass). The loose (even for Mingus) environment brings Mingus's vibrant but tense sense of humor to the fore. As usual, h...

Vivi Sect Vi

An abundance of modern industrial groups continue to cash in on the innovative measures of Skinny Puppy's VIVIsectVI. Things like Nivek Ogre's trademark damaged vocals, and the multiple layering technique, which requires many listens to fully appreciate, laid the groundwork for countless albums from other bands. Released in 1988, VIVIsectVI addresses issues of vivisection, nuclear waste/war, and b...
