So it's ok for the boss to appear hostile/rude even though she doesn't mean it (ep1) but when the models unknowingly have a "chou lian" (long face) because they're nervous, it's unacceptable...
Double standard. A boss should be a leader working together in a team, but instead this boss focus too much on her ‘power’ believe that she is above the rest. Lol.
it’s definitely enlightening to see what goes behind the scenes in growing a model’s career, however I feel that the models deserve respect & a benefit of doubt as well. From the clips shown in this episode, it seems like they were judged simply by things on the surface without first understanding or checking in with the models. Of course I understand the mentors did reach out but simply judging and assuming their actions/lack of response in such negative light isn’t very nice. I understand too that the modelling industry is very tough and competitive but as we know it can be very detrimental to their mental health, so why are we condoning this? No hate here just some feedback :)) i do enjoy watching Basic Models content but I feel there needs to be some form of respect/privacy in discussing about the models as they too are humans and have feelings!
the group chat parts are true and applicable. when i entered working life esp in the office, my supervisor always advise me to ask, ask, ask and never ever keep quiet over smtg unless you are 100% sure that you can handle it. yea it might sound annoying or you feel like you didnt wanna bother them so much but it's safe to say you'll more likely to survive in this type of industry if you do these. it'll also give them the impression that you are dedicated and interested in striving.
Am I the only one who thought that they were way too harsh on the models? If they are nervous now (understandably) how would these videos affect their self esteem? Idk just wished they’d also mention the good doings of the models as well
I don't think it's harsh. The industry is even tougher. No excuses for the trainees not putting in effort or doing their homework. Lots of people are dying to join this agency so they better treasure their chance to learn all they can. Just one bad casting is suffice to get you blacklisted in the industry.
@@elena-sg8ib Toxic industry. Honestly these people should remember that they’re making an online show and they’re under scrutiny by the public as well.
lunch comes first? no shit, if they don't eat how to give their best also if they do not even have their energy. Models are humans too, trainees are humans too, there's no need to overwork, work smart ~
If u want to know who got kicked out, go to the individual “trainees’” ig profile and if the “basic models” thing in their bio is missing it means they are no longer a trainee lol
Hey @BasicModelsManagement, I got a new Idea for your upcoming series 😆😆 Can you guys, like do a series where public sent pictures of them pose like models and let Bonita and her brooker rate them? I think that will be super cool 😎
Hi, in accordance to the covid guidelines set by our media authority, we are allowed to film without masks on. Staff and trainees not appearing on camera always have their masks on and temperature is always taken before every lesson. Don't worry, all safety measures are taken. It's very safe in Singapore because everyone here is very responsible.
I believe Singapore has been more progressive about COVID-19 safety in comparison to other countries within the past year. This probably allows them to be a little more “normal” in group settings.
Because the ones speaking to each other are Chinese....? It’s just interpersonal communications. When addressing to more people at once they use English (as usual)
@@miaash7374 they do have international clients! And there are subs! Speaking in their mother language might make them feel more comfortable but they speak English when they need to I.e. during mentoring, work, etc :)
Yasmine has hallucination she self proclaimed she was in training in sm. She is obviously lying. She has too much freckles. Sm want girls clear skin not even freckle..look at all their trainee girls all got clear skin and her looks doesn't even fit any kpop industry. And given sm big name ... And she was saying her eye was going All around so obvious she was lying. And she can't rmb her training year ? Not like it was ages ago. Also, with a contract you can't just leave like that. ... Liarliar. Hallucination. And tbh you can't get to any kpop industry Yasmine.

"lunch comes first???" was the highlight for me

Finally. I've been waiting for this episode to come out. Watching this is as fun as watching ANTM. I love it.

Ive been waiting for this episode for weeks ☺️😊
I’ve been waiting for ep2 after watching the first ep !

daryl's improvised lines were wayy more natural than the script... you want your models to act or 死背台词?
If client says this, you can't do another. Unfortunately. Since client pays u 😂
LIVING for this rn. Can’t wait for the next ep to come out
the dream to learn from such established models omg 😭😭😭

Who.said bonita is strict? She is likke one of the best trainers ever she is nice and making sure that her models are doing their best
This agency is so cool! 😏 And Bonita seems so passionate about her job!
Now I understand why she is so strict in her selection criteria.
shes just being very bossy
I hope the next episode gets uploaded sooner🙏🏼
basic u should find Aaron Lim Jun Jie Tiktok superstar, your missing out
who’s still here waiting for ep 3? can’t waitttt !
So who got kicked out? Why did it end so suddenly? 😭
so many got kicked out lol
If u want to know who got kicked out, go to the individual “trainees’” ig profile and if the “basic models” thing in their bio is missing it means they are no longer a trainee lol
@@mypeepee Spoiler alert! Lol
@@mypeepee damn! lol
I was scared to show up on the Indonesia audition because im only 168cm..i heard they only want tall models :(
15:39 I’m ded 😂 I’m sorry for laughing

Hey @BasicModelsManagement,
I got a new Idea for your upcoming series 😆😆
Can you guys, like do a series where public sent pictures of them pose like models and let Bonita and her brooker rate them? I think that will be super cool 😎
yes that would be so fun to watch!
Great idea and I would love be take part as well. But confirm they will receive a lot of hate from the public.
No thanks. I rather a NY or Paris based booker rate me.
damnn i wish i would grow just 5cm more . i wanna be 185 😪 the other guy was like 190+ 😱
No wonder jingyu looks familiar. Cause he is nic liew boyfriend. Hahah. Compatible
I hope someday i’ll be in their agency!! I’m 14 and 5’11:) my dream is to become a model ever since when I was 5 years old🥰
Wait what your 180cm?!
@@asterix2385 yup!!!:)
@@athenasaruca4071 at 14?! That's unbelievable I feel so short
@@asterix2385 i got my height from my father’s genes
at least not this agency..........
As senior models, their lack of confidence can be seen at their introduction already smh
why is she still not wearing a mask NOR a face shield while teaching ... so irresponsible
it gets worse .... they are not wearing a mask in the office too? yikes

hi guys, i think fyan @hiiitsfyan would be a great addition as a male model
Suddenly im so scared of bonita. 😰 jie jie bu yao angry
I really want to become a model but.... Im short and chubby hahaha
MOOD HAHA
@@karenhuang25 lol
u dont need to be tall and skinny to be a model. there are a few models who have unique features and make use of it when modelling.
@@riddler2754 oh... I didnt know it
Why is that lady switching from English to Mandarin all the time
Wait the tallest guy is the same height as me
honestly all of them acts awkward and the personality is just not there....?
Ikr
So what if you have personality but you are ugly
I love this video when u all meeting but i am too lazy to read subtitle. It wd be alot better when u all speak english.
Commercial acting.. Really can be better, sobs.
Why do they speak in chinese so much although it’s a singaporean multi cultural agency?
Because the ones speaking to each other are Chinese....? It’s just interpersonal communications. When addressing to more people at once they use English (as usual)
@@victoxica7413 why do that when you are able to speak english and have international viewers as well as clients themselves
@@miaash7374 they do have international clients! And there are subs! Speaking in their mother language might make them feel more comfortable but they speak English when they need to I.e. during mentoring, work, etc :)
They are Taiwanese
@@victoxica7413 Sure but from a non-chinese speaking viewer’s perspective, it seems very non-inclusive and biased.
Sorry to say javen doesn't have the looks :x
Yasmine has hallucination she self proclaimed she was in training in sm. She is obviously lying. She has too much freckles.

misc management > basic models lolzzz
bonita is so stubborn
That aunty looks really irritating.
This is modelling why are they acting?
Sometimes they get some roles in advertisements etc need to act also
@@happyleaf9635 that means they are more commercial than editorial right?
@@twr5815 there's different routes you can take in this company. Got people do fashion shows, some editorial, some acting
