In this Create Talents and Models review we look at our fit and muscular hunk, 28-year-old male model S Yang Heng, known by screen name YH S. His testimonial was conducted in the company studio as well some outdoor shoot to add some fun element. His current status as a part-time student studying at RMIT, hobbies of exercising and traveling will come to you as no surprise when you look at his well-toned body, modelesque features and some insightful advices on modeling. Anyone interested in modeling has to listen to what he says!


YH S was approached by the scouters from Create Talents and Models as he was walking along Orchard Road one night at Somerset 313. The scouter gave him a name card and asked him if he was interested in modeling. He agreed came down for an interview the next day, and joined the firm subsequently.

When asked about an exciting experience he had, he mentioned that there was one time where he had to pair up with a girl whom he did not know at all, and the staff in-charge of the project were from Hong Kong. He found that fun and that the people were nice. He had to pretend to be a couple with the girl, so he had a challenge of ‘breaking the ice’ quickly. It was important as it made the photo look realistic and made it look like they were really in love and were a couple. It took them both a few tries, but male model believes it was executed well in the end, and everyone was happy and pleased.

Yan Heng’s favorite project was the Maggi Mee Hokkien Char Mee television advertisement. It was filmed during the seventh month of the Hungry Ghost Festival, in the middle of nowhere, and at night where it was pitch black and the crew had to use their own lamps and lights. He remarks that the staffs were really spontaneous, encouraging, and their sense of humor and jokes kept everyone comfortable and going. He liked working with one of his co-actors, named Ian G, who also happened to a model from Create Talents and it was very fun. The whole shoot took about eight hours but to him it felt like only a few minutes had passed.

Model also had good advice to give on what a model requires to succeed. He had two main points, the first being confidence, and the second is being adaptable. Confidence, as Yang Heng mentions, is when you have to portray yourself in the image of what the photographer wants, and that’s where patience comes in as well. Different people have different expectations, so a model would also have to adapt quick to what is required on the spot, and not just stick with the image you have in mind.

Embracing uncertainty is also another notable characteristic of YH S who mentions he likes the feeling of not knowing what’s coming next in life. He likes seeing the different job opportunities he receives when he opens up the messages from Create Talents. It’s a very different experience every time and he likes to be able to prepare his best with the limited time given to him. He believes working as such is more fulfilling and exciting rather than something that is monotonous and boring.

When speaking on why he likes working with Create Talents, Yang Heng says that the agency has opened a lot of doors for him. He has been to quite a number of model castings, and each one is different from the next. So each one is also an experience and all of them have been fun. He looks forward to learning more with our agency.

So is modeling just about looks? Yang Heng doesn’t think so. He says it surely takes personality and spontaneity. He advises aspiring models to take a leap of faith because you never know what’s going to happen and you never know what opportunities will come. If you take the leap of faith and gain the experience, you might even be acting or shooting with Yang Heng next time, which he is really looking forward to!
