Black male models
Not only women, but also boys work in agencies as exotic models. The demand for them is no less high, especially considering the small number of representatives of the stronger sex in the modeling business. Black men are more likely to be cast in projects that emphasize ethnicity, creating references to the deep past. This is due to the fact that the sight of an attractive dark guy in the image of a primitive man evokes an association with ancient instincts, passion and fire. While a white-skinned person in such a role is more likely to be perceived as a beggar, a poor person. A strong image works great when promoting certain products that encourage impulse buyers.
The Asian type is in fashion today, but there are certain divisions by age - Korean popular music and anime culture are in demand mainly among teenagers, so guys with Asian appearance work in similar areas. Older men are often attracted to projects on technical, scientific or pseudo-scientific topics, based on their well-known stereotype about the genius of Asians in this field.
Male models with an exotic appearance are often used in events designed for a female audience, attracting them with romance, mystery and unusual characteristics. Some companies play on this even without an obvious connection between the presence of the model and the theme of the event - just an intriguing appearance plays a role. But with proper design, development of images for models and compliance with environmental conditions, this effect will be many times stronger, so you should not skimp on planning and implementing marketers’ ideas.
