Bear Wear Photos 2
Here are some more photos from the shoots for Bear Wear.
So I was excited when they told me I was the only one who didn't have to be clean shaven and could keep my beard. I was slightly less excited though when I realized though that they would have me be the poster child
for the Alumni gear.
Can't pass up a good chance to do some back flips on camera.
There are many things that were extremely awkward about this photo session. First they decided to dress me
like I was sick or something and wearing all sweats when everyone else is in shorts and tanks. Second they proceeded to have the two white guys try to playfully steal the ball from the one non-white guy in the middle...
Fun fact when getting a picture taken of you eating popcorn there is no time to chew / swallow. Needless to
say awkwardness ensues when your mouth is packed so full of popcorn, no more can be fed to you and your mouth is so full you can't explain what is wrong...
Note all of the perfectly shaven legs then my hairy man legs just chilling in the middle... slightly out of place.
Bear Wear Photos
I was selected for a modeling position for "Bear Wear", UCLA's clothing catalog. Here are some of the photos from the shoots. The catalog that most of the photos were for will come out late this summer (2011).
These track jackets were awesome, I really wanted to steal the one I was wearing.
Again.
Laying on the grass with a guy on a ladder taking pictures of us... incredibly awkward. Especially when he suggested we kiss for a shot.
Camera Man: "You just got out of a game, you know you're a little drunk or something and need to lean on each other to walk!"
We're like one of those greaser gangs that always walks in a flying V and sometimes snaps on beat.
We take our job very seriously.
The fake burger was very entertaining.
Unfortunately these images are very large and take a long time to upload one by one. The rest will have to come later.
Bear Wear Application Photos
I applied for a modeling position with UCLA's clothing line "Bear Wear" and had to send a photo with my application. These are a few of the photos I had a friend take on campus to send in with the application.
If your going to study Philosophy you need a picture like this for them to use to carve the statue.
Trying to look like a real model.
It's not a real photo shoot without a few hand stand photos.
The signature one-hander.
Surprisingly enough of the hundreds of people that applied I was one of five guys selected for the position!
