Rowan Blanchard finds photo shoots 'scary'

OHMYGOSSIP — Rowan Blanchard finds photo shoots “scary”.
The 15-year-old actress – who starred in the American Eagle Outfitters campaign last month – has revealed she finds it a lot more nerve wracking posing for a fashion shoot than she does shooting scenes for a new film in front of the camera crew.
Speaking about her shoots, the brunette beauty said: “I’m not sure there’s a specific one I can remember, but I remember getting very nervous before. The environment is kind of scary. I like the whole idea of creating images, but it gets freaky when there’s a bunch of people constantly reviewing how you look.”
And the ‘Invisible Sister’ star has admitted when she stars in a movie she detaches herself from the character she has been cast in, which she can’t do when she is posing for a brand’s new commercial.
She explained to i-D: “It’s very different. In a film set or a TV set, you’re hiding behind a character. I don’t even consider that I’m on camera. It’s like another person. I can watch something with me in it, and be quite okay with it. I don’t even feel connected to it, because that character that I embody is so separate from me.
“But in a fashion shoot, it’s strange because you have to incorporate the clothes and allow yourself to have fun with the clothes rather than feeling rigid, in control. It’s not a character but you have to channel something.”
However, the star believes actors and actresses can use their skill to help them perform on a shoot.
She explained: “I feel that’s how many actors approach fashion shoots, with their knowledge of acting, by asking ‘What do you want to get across?’ I’m not a model but that’s what my understanding of it is: channelling something, which is different from standing in front of a camera. Channeling the essence of the story.”
