Working with Figure Models

• No smart phones or any devices capable of photography or recording may be in use or visible.

• An instructor must be present in the classroom while the model is posing. Otherwise, the model will not pose.

• For nude poses, no individual not directly engaged in classroom activities (tour groups, maintenance vendors, staff, etc.) may be present without the model's consent. Otherwise, the model will pose clothed.

• For nude poses, blinds must be drawn, windows blocked and doors closed. Otherwise, the model will pose clothed.

• Classroom temperatures should remain at comfortable levels. Otherwise, the model will pose clothed. If you are experiencing issues with heating or cooling, call Facilities.

• Models are not obligated to provide reference photos. If you need reference photos, please contact the Registry to obtain model's consent.

• Studio classrooms are equipped with model stands provided by Facilities. Desks, chairs, furniture, etc. are prohibited from use as stands.

• If no stand is available, models will pose on a floor area. If you are in a classroom without a stand but would like one, contact Facilities to discuss options.

• Models are not permitted to set up classrooms. Call Facilities if you need assistance.

BREAKS

• Models will alternate 20 minutes of posing with five minutes of rest. Poses longer than 20 minutes require prior consent.

• Models must be given an additional 10- to 15-minute break for every three hours of posing.

• For six-hour classes, we recommend models be given an additional break aligning with the class break.
