Figure Model (TEMP)

About the role

UCF School of Visual Arts and Design seeks applications for multiple part-time openings for Figure Model positions to support the Studio Art and Emerging Media programs. Un-draped Figure Models (without clothing) serve as primary subjects for drawing and studio art courses at all levels within an academic setting, including foundations, intermediate, advanced, and graduate instruction. Models work under the direction of faculty to create poses appropriate for each class, ranging from quick poses for gesture drawings to long poses lasting for the duration of the class session. Classes that require figure drawing rely heavily on the model; therefore, punctuality and preparedness are essential. Models are expected to hold a variety of poses, including standing, seated, and reclining, for reasonable periods of time to allow students to accurately observe and capture the figure. Models must maintain professionalism in a classroom environment and follow faculty guidance regarding posing, breaks, and class needs. The role requires comfort working in an academic setting with students and faculty, and the ability to remain still during assigned pose durations. Reasonable breaks are provided. UCF is seeking to fill multiple roles. Candidates for this job posting will be considered for additional vacancies in this department. Classification Title: Arts Technician I
