How To Get A Job As A Mermaid
The ocean is filled with many interesting creatures. Of these creatures some are myth, some real. Many a tale of Neptune, Davy Jones Locker and mermaids are told over a pint of ale.
A mermaid is a half fish, half human and a beautiful sea creature. She lures her inspecting victims with her beauty and drags them below the surface of the water. To philosophers she was a perfect mixture of the sea and earth. The mermaid represented the mystery of the sea to the Greeks. Ever wondered what befell the sailor after they fell overboard?
Of course, this is more Greek mythology than anything else is, but there are people who perform as mermaids. They may have tails, but they are still beautiful women.
How do you get a job as a mermaid?
Of course love of water is one big requirement. You're swimming with a tail instead of two feet or swim fins so the action is distinctly different. Begin by working as a model so you can learn how to present yourself. Most of your time won't be spent swimming on the ocean. Much of your time will be entertaining others, so you want to be able to present yourself in such a way that you bring a mystic to your shape and performance. In addition, you want to filly understand how cameras work and camera shooting angles.
Get involved in the idea of the ocean. Talk to divers and other people who are always in the water. Find out how they see the oceans. Find one or two that are underwater photographers and get some shots to form a portfolio. In order to impress employers you will need a good portfolio.
Learn how to perform by doing the likes of kid's parties. The kids will allow you to practice the final details of being a mermaid without too much criticism.
Have a go at creating a tail of your own.
One person who was a model and became a mermaid is Hannah Frasier. It is better to make a tail for your body than copy another's one, Hannah says. It should have a natural feel. In addition, certain shapes create more power than others do, and they glide through the water better. Make it you, Hannah says, be creative.
By following these steps, one day it may be you in that picture swimming with the whale or getting applause from a thrilled audience at a famous water park somewhere in the world.
