After a rigorous selection process involving physical castings in 8 African countries, as well as thousands of digital applications from all over the world, the Future Face Africa, the largest model search in Africa, is finally set to hold this Sunday, January 30th.
Judges have selected 18 finalists who will be flown into Lagos, Nigeria for a shot at turning their modelling aspirations into a reality, at the Grand Finale event taking place on Sunday, 30th January 2022 at Eko Hotel & Suites, Lagos. Models will be competing for a chance to win a 2-year modelling contract with a top international modelling agency, as well as a $5,000 USD cash prize.
The FFA project is spearheaded by Elizabeth Isiorho, a pioneer in the African modelling industry and the founder of Beth Model Management Africa, Africa’s largest modelling agency, and the organisation behind Future Face Africa.
Over the past 17 years, Beth Model Management has served as an industry pacesetter, helping to launch the careers of dozens of internationally placed models, and has cultivated some of the best talents in the industry, such as Mayowa Nicholas and Davidson Obennebo.
Elizabeth Isiorho previously organised Elite Model Look Nigeria, but after a 2-year hiatus, re-emerged with Future Face Africa to expand her model search beyond the borders of Nigeria alone, and offer a wider range of hopefuls a chance at success. FFA will be giving opportunities to people from various countries, backgrounds and skin tones, aiming to go beyond the buzzwords of “diversity” and “inclusivity” to create an initiative that truly celebrates the range of beauty that the industry has to offer.
According to Ms Isiorho FFA will be equipping selected models with the knowledge and skills to achieve international success and to have long-lasting careers in a very competitive industry. “For these models, Future Face Africa will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that could change their lives forever.” she stated.
