Male Model Profiling Films

The Tyler Riggs Dana Scruggs Video Tracks the Fashion Icon

— December 4, 2012 — Pop Culture
The Dana Scruggs-directed 'Hi I'm Tyler' film focuses on the buzzing career of model Tyler Riggs. Riggs is a Florida native who has appeared in spreads for GQ Style Russia, Wonderland Magazine and Vogue China Men.

Riggs' rugged yet dainty looks and noted interpersonal skills have led to his appearances within the runway shows of Robert Geller, Givenchy and Alexander McQueen. NEXT Models' interest in this video-based profile follows up on his many successes.

The gritty metal fence background is all that is needed to highlight the features of Riggs. He dances about in a humorous manner, and while there is no dialogue in the production, beauty expert Lindsey Williams alongside Scruggs made the clips quite memorable.
Trend Themes
1. Model Profiling Videos - The success of 'Hi I'm Tyler', a film profiling male model Tyler Riggs, creates an opportunity for similar short films to be made for other models to attract both modeling and advertising opportunities.
