Launch Your Modeling Career in One Day: Introducing Model Intensive!

Atlanta is about to get its most comprehensive modeling workshop — and you're invited to be part of the inaugural class.

If you've ever dreamed of stepping onto a runway, booking your first commercial shoot, or building a personal brand that opens doors, Model Intensive is where that journey begins.

On Saturday, February 7, 2026, Capacity Talent presents its first-ever Model Intensive — a completely reimagined one-day workshop designed to take aspiring models from curious beginners to industry-ready professionals. Whether you're 18 or 40, male or female identifying, experienced or brand new — if you're serious about modeling, this is your starting line.

What Makes Model Intensive Different?

Let's be honest: the modeling industry can feel impossible to break into. Confusing advice. Predatory agencies. No clear path forward. We created Model Intensive to change that.

This isn't a fluff seminar or a pitch for overpriced classes. It's a comprehensive, no-nonsense training day led by working models, certified trainers, and industry professionals who are actively booking jobs and building careers right now.

You'll Learn From the Best

• Vee Mahan (@yupdashim) — Professional model and influencer teaching social media branding strategies that actually work

• Michael Johnson (@liftheavylightwork) — Certified personal trainer and stretch & mobility specialist guiding you through movement fundamentals every model needs

• Industry Expert Panel — Real talk from working models and industry professionals living this life every day

Here's What You'll Master in One Day

Morning: Build Your Foundation (9:00 AM - 12:05 PM)

We start with what you need to know before you take a single photo or walk into a single casting.

The History & The Business

• How modeling evolved from the fashion capitals to Atlanta's emerging scene

• Industry fundamentals: print vs. runway, commercial vs. high fashion, agencies vs. managers

• Spotting scams and protecting yourself from predatory practices

• Understanding contracts, comp cards, and what "exposure" really means

Ethics & Safety

• Recognizing exploitation before it happens

• On-set conduct and professional boundaries

• Navigating uncomfortable situations with confidence

Afternoon: Develop Your Skills (1:05 PM - 5:00 PM)

Theory is useless without practice. The afternoon is hands-on, interactive, and designed to build your confidence in front of the camera and on the runway.

Branding & Social Media with Vee Mahan

In 2026, your Instagram is your portfolio. Learn how to build a cohesive brand, grow an engaged following, and turn your social presence into bookings.

Finding Your Niche

Not every model fits every category — and that's a good thing. Discover where your look, personality, and strengths position you in the market.

Movement Training with Michael Johnson

Posture. Presence. Body awareness. Michael breaks down the physical foundations that separate amateurs from professionals — and you'll feel the difference immediately.

Commercial Print Posing

Hands-on instruction in the poses, angles, and expressions that book commercial jobs. Real coaching. Real feedback.

Runway Fundamentals

Walk. Pivot. Pose. We'll teach you the techniques, then you'll practice on an actual runway setup with individualized feedback.

Evening: Connect & Capture (5:00 PM - 6:30 PM)

Industry Talkback Panel

This is where theory meets reality. Ask working models and industry pros the questions you're actually afraid to ask. What does rejection feel like? How do you handle money when bookings are inconsistent? What do agencies really look for? No sugarcoating. Just honest answers.

Professional Digital Photoshoot

Every participant gets professional headshots and portfolio images shot by an experienced photographer. These aren't just keepsakes — they're the images you'll use to start booking work. Images are delivered within 14-21 days.

What's Included

Your registration covers everything you need for the day:

✓ 9.5 hours of expert instruction

✓ Professional digital photoshoot with edited images

✓ Lunch and refreshments throughout the day

✓ Comprehensive resource guide with industry contacts

✓ Model Intensive branded t-shirt

✓ Certificate of completion

✓ Access to our alumni community for ongoing support

Who Should Attend?

This workshop is for aspiring models ages 18+ who are ready to take modeling seriously. You don't need experience. You don't need an agency. You don't need a portfolio.

You just need to show up ready to learn, practice, and invest in yourself.

We have 30 spots available:

• 15 male identifying

• 15 female identifying

When they're gone, they're gone.

Be Part of the Inaugural Class

There's something special about being first.

As a member of the inaugural Model Intensive class, you're not just attending a workshop — you're helping us build something meaningful. Your feedback will shape future programs. Your success stories will inspire the next generation. You'll be part of the founding community that proves Atlanta has what it takes to develop world-class modeling talent.

Years from now, when Model Intensive is a staple of Atlanta's creative community, you'll be able to say: "I was in the first one."

Investment in Your Future

Early Bird Registration: $175 (first 10 spots)

Standard Registration: $200

Let's be real — $175 for a full day of professional training, expert coaching, and a professional photoshoot is an absolute steal. Comparable workshops charge $500+. We're keeping this accessible because we believe talent shouldn't be limited by budget.

Why Atlanta? Why Now?

Atlanta isn't New York or LA — and that's exactly the point.

While those markets are oversaturated and brutally competitive, Atlanta is growing. We're home to a thriving film industry, major corporate headquarters, and an expanding fashion scene. The opportunities are here. But so is the need for trained, professional talent who understand the business.

Model Intensive gives you the tools to capitalize on what's happening in this city right now.

The Bottom Line

You can keep wondering if you have what it takes.

Or you can spend one Saturday finding out.

Model Intensive isn't about promises or guarantees. It's about preparation. We're going to teach you what the industry actually requires, give you the skills to compete, and introduce you to people who can open doors.

What you do with that is up to you.
