Calling All Leathernecks

Casting Call for University Photo & Video Shoots

The Office of University Communications and Marketing is always on the lookout for students who aren't camera shy to serve as models for photography and video shoots. Inspire more and become the face of WIU! 

What should I expect at the photo and video shoots?

Our team works to make your modeling experience as easy and comfortable as possible. Photo and video shoots are scheduled across campus each semester. You and your fellow students will interact and get to know each other, while our photo and video teams capture your interaction. Each shoot is an adventure filled with new people and places.

How will the photos and videos be used?

The photos and videos captured are used in University marketing materials. Typical uses include brochures, websites, social media, billboards, commercials and other print materials for students who are interested in joining the Leatherneck family.

What happens after I sign up?

Please be patient. You may not be needed right away, but our team schedules photo and video shoots all year long. When you do hear from us, please be responsive and let our team know your availability. You may also be encouraged to bring friends!

What should I wear? 

Please bring or wear one WIU shirt/clothing item and one non-WIU shirt that is neutral in color and preferably doesn't have any logos on it. We also encourage you to bring some academic props such as backpacks, laptops, books/notebooks, etc.
