Video: This is how Chinese models do 30 poses in 15 seconds

If you've ever doubted just how much skill is required to be a model, then take a look at these videos first spotted at Petapixel.

Models that pose for product images on Taobao, China’s equivalent of Amazon, typically have to wear 150 different pieces of clothing a day.

This means a standard day at the office involves more than 700 poses and according to news website China Daily, They’re given one minute to change outfits between shoots and just a 10 minute break for lunch.

To get through the massive workload, the models “freestyle” through a large number of different poses. They can do about two poses per second, or 30 poses over 15 seconds of continuous photos. It's so fast that the camera flashes can barely keep up.

All that work isn't for nothing though, with top models reportedly making up to ‎元10,000 (~$1,500) for a single days work.
