Marc Ellis

Marc Laban Ellis, an experienced hand model since circa 2010. Marc has experience working in film studios, video production and stills. Taking direction well from directors or photographers to achieve the desired effect in any project. Marc has worked for big name advertising agencies to smaller independant studios. In his time as a hand model Marc has had many a strange request and situation, from holding many a pint, shaving his arms for painting, under a mini platform stage having mud and water pour through to holding babies and dealing with their bodily functions, everything in a days work with a smile. One of the longest and hardest hand modelling jobs Marc recalls is from 2012, keeping a crew of animators (who had just completed work on the Frankenweenie film production) happy one small movement at a time, it was for a major Japanese car manufacturer a big production, strict schedules and long days over a full week but a fantastic end result, (okayyy it was Toyota!). Marc loves the community feel at Festivals like Shambala and many others. He loves a Wim Hof style cold dip, breath work and sauna, and is a regular at Calisthenics, Yoga and small group training sessions, “movement is life” is one of Marc’s motto's.
