Check out the personal casting video from Top 3 Female Contestant in the OBVIOUS Magazine Cover Model Competition.
Each finalist was asked to do a personal video (up to 3 minutes) and had to answer the following questions:
- Why do you feel you deserve to me the male/female cover for the Model Issue?
- What did this contest mean to you?
- Did the contest affect you in a good way or a negative way? Explain?
We asked to see an example of their best model walk and pose.

This is the clear cut winner, There was no edit from question to question so you can tell the answers came from the heart and unwritten. Her runway walk blows away the competition. She answered all your questions with no extra talking to waste up most of the time. This is your cover model right here.

Vanessa Banks is the “TRUTH”!! Like she said, she carries the WHOLE package. Not only is she beautiful on the outside, she also has an inward beauty and a personality that will brighten any room. If you’re looking for someone that has the look, class, personality, hard working, knows how to work a runway, and a pure heart of gold, this is your lady….Ms. Vanessa Banks!!
