Corry (9) :

Judging by the setting, I think this a fashion show as it depicts a model walking down the runway showcasing a dress. Also, there is a man in the audience holding a camera, photographing the model as she is walking. Spotlights on high barristers as focused on the model. There are also spectators in the audience watching her, their heads moving along as she walks.

They are present at this fashion show to view the clothes showcased by models. Some of the spectators might be photographers various media aspects, for example newspapers or magazines. They are present to capture images from the show to use for their magazine or newspaper feature, or maybe even for their own use. The same goes for the photographer who shot this scene. Some may also be relatives of the models or producers, present to give them support.

The expression on the model’s face looks blank and serious. Inside she might be feeling nervous thinking she might make a mistake. She is concentrating very hard to look professional and confident. On the other hand, the audience look like they are enjoying the show and they are chatting to each other, possibly about their opinions on the outfit shown.

Some of the audience at the back is standing maybe because there are not enough seats for all the viewers. Maybe it was planned to be like that so they can have a better view standing rather than sitting. The purpose of this fashion show is to showcase the various outfits by their various designers. It is also to capture photographers and people’s attention.

I don’t think I would like to try walking down a catwalk as I’m not a very confident person and I have stage fright. I am also inappropriate for this kind of activity as I do not fit the criteria needed.

Prior to this scene, there were probably other models going down the catwalk each presenting different works. The models each take turns to walk down the runway one by one. After this scene the fashion show would have ended with all the models on the runway followed by their respective designers with the audience applauding with satisfaction.

Comment more on the spectators; what do they think of the model? Since this is a fashion show, you might want to also discuss the clothes in greater detail.
