Interview: Model Weronika Pawelec (Poland)
Can you tell us a little about you?
I’m a model, I appeared in the show Top Model in the 11th edition and I reached the 10th episode. I am deaf. I wear a hearing aid and a cochlear implant, without which I would be completely deaf. They are my superpower :) On a daily basis, I studies at the Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań in the field of cultural studies. I am in the process of establishing the "Fly with a Butterfly" foundation, which will support deaf and hard of hearing people. In my free time I practice and prepare for the half marathon in Poznań.
If you could change anything about yourself, what would it be?
All in all, I think everything is ok, but it could be twice more ok :)
How did you start modelling?
Quite prosaic. When I had the first game of modeling with a friend, I felt that this is something for me, so I signed up for the forum of photographers andmodels, and so began my adventure with modeling
What do you think of the work as a model?
I think that the work of a model is not such a simple profession as it seems. You do not stand and only pose, you have to show your interior in one photo in different versions. It’s a profession similar to acting. Only the actor plays his role in a longer period of time, and the model in one or several shots. In addition to posing, other factors play an important role, without which it may
be more difficult to perform this profession, such as: height, appearance, communication skills, self-confidence, English.
What is your beauty regimen?
My way to beauty is simply physical activity and rational nutrition
What are your personal qualities which distinguish you from others?
People call me an introvert, an eccentric. Some also say that I am a quiet river.
What are your plans for the future?
Plans for the future? First of all, focus on your development. That is, at university, at the foundation, in English and on some occasion also in modeling.
What are some of your favorite experiences so far?
My favorite experiences are participation in the Top Model program, going on the catwalk at Mariusz Przybylski’s, MMC, recent acting workshops.
Do you have any advice for those who want to start modelling?
First of all, you have to be feisty and believe in yourself. Others may sometimes help and give advice, but it is you who must believe that you will succeed. However, if something does not work out, do not experience it because modeling is just an
adventure in our lives. It is important, of course, to take care of yourself and your dimensions, exercise, networking and English.
What do you think of the magazine?
This is an interesting magazine with different personalities from different parts of the world. You can meet new people, which makes me happy. It would be nice if all the interviews were in English.
