Why you should be following Bregje Heinen



You can count on one hand the number of supermodels that are also abstract impressionist painters. Or, at least, you could start counting them on one hand, but it would go, "One... um... does taking Instagram with the bunny-ears filter count? No? Right. Just the one, then."

And that one is 24-year-old Dutch supermodel Bregje Heinen, who divides her time between swimsuit shoots in the Maldives, Mauritius and Brazil, walking the runway for Victoria's Secret, Prada and Topshop, and spending time at the canvas.


Still, it's perhaps no shock that Heinen - who lives in Brooklyn with her three bulldogs and boasts an Instagram following of half a million, with no shortage of shots where she isn't dressed for the weather - is used to making her own entertainment, having grown up in a small town called Borculo, with a population just shy of 7,000.


"There are two bars and not much else to do," says Heinen, "but I have the best memories from my childhood. When I grew up, I thought it was boring, but now looking back, it's so nice. Everyone knows each other."


And now, everyone else knows Bregje, too.

How to Be a Filmmaker



Making films is a creative and fun endeavor. Filmmakers are responsible for nearly every aspect of the movie, from the script to the sound effects. Enroll in film school or take some classes to learn about your craft. You should also join a film crew to gain experience and meet others in the industry. When it comes time to make your own film, you’ll need to create a film crew of your own.


Take a film class or enroll in film school. Not only will you learn a lot about the craft, but you will also make connections with others that are interested in making movies. You may even be able to find work on a film crew through your classmates or professors.
Many community colleges offer courses in film that you could sign up for if you aren’t ready to enroll in film school.


Study a related field. People on film crews sometimes have varied backgrounds, such as in writing, theatre, or art. Consider taking classes in these subjects to broaden your knowledge and prepare you for becoming a filmmaker.


Research films. You should watch a variety of movies to get ideas and tips for your own film. Choose movies from different genres and different eras. Pay attention to details such as:
What do you like about a film?
What makes a movie believable?
What makes a strong character?
How are props used successfully?
How does the location impact or enhance the film?

Find out what’s going on in the industry. It is important to keep your knowledge current regarding the market. Find out news and trends about the film industry so that you know what you’re up against.


Network. Meeting other people in the industry can help you out tremendously. Follow leaders in the filmmaking biz on social media, and attend filmmaking and movie events as often as you can.


Find a mentor. Speak to someone who has experience with filmmaking. Ask them what tips or tricks they have for you. Ask to tag along when they shoot one of their own movies so you can see firsthand what works and what doesn’t.
You may be able to find a mentor in film school. Ask a classmate who has experience or one of your professors to mentor you. Alternatively, once you gain experience on a film crew, you may be able to find a mentor through your work.

How to Survive Winter Without Succumbing to Seasonal Affective Disorder



Each year, when the skies are grayer and the days are shorter, the mind falls steadily out of its rhythm. Sleep patterns are disrupted, moods shift for the worse, and periods of inactivity grow increasingly more frequent and crippling.


This doesn’t happen to everyone, but it can happen to anyone. And for some, it happens every year, like clockwork. Regardless of how vulnerable you are to SAD, it's something you should arm yourself against because it's often preventable or curable. For more insight and solutions, we sought the expertise of Ravi Shah, MD, psychiatrist and assistant professor of psychiatry at Columbia University. His main piece of advice? Get proactive about staving it off.




First off, what causes season affective disorder?

SAD happens at certain times of year, primarily in winter—after Daylight Savings Time steals precious sunlight from an already short day. Individuals experience episodes of depression or mania, though Shah says many of his patients experience milder symptoms that can worsen throughout the grayer season.


Shah says that SAD’s causes aren’t entirely known, though several studies suggest that it’s “a disruption in circadian rhythms.” In particular, your melatonin secretion may decrease along with the loss of daylight, thus affecting your quality sleep.

Who gets the most SAD of all the SAD people?

“People with a history of depression or bipolar disorder are most susceptible to SAD,” says Shah. He says many studies indicate that people who live at higher or lower latitudes from the equator are also at higher risk for SAD (since their sunlight levels vary most drastically). "However, subsequent studies were not able to replicate those findings."

What are the signs and symptoms?

The symptoms of SAD are generally the same as those of depression, says Shah. These include: persistently low mood, decreased experience of pleasure with activities that the person normally enjoys, excessive guilt or self-loathing, disturbances in sleep (either oversleeping or trouble sleeping), decreased or increased appetite or unintentional changes in weight, fatigue, difficulties concentrating, as well as suicidal thoughts or behavior.

How bad does it have to be before you should get help?

Shah says to seek help from your physician if you are experiencing several of the above symptoms—even if they’re mild. You can minimize stress and symptoms by staying proactive, especially if this recurs each year.

Hannah Ferguson is the model you should be following



When the clay pigeon shooting competition in San Angelo, Texas folded ten years ago, it was the fault of local 25-year-old Sports Illustrated model and Instagram sweetheart Hannah Ferguson. Ferguson and her family would all compete annually and, after winning in every category three years running, the competition began to feel rather pointless. This was perhaps inevitable - Ferguson's father was a sniper, her mother a Marine Corps drill instructor and the family hobby was shooting. "Growing up, my four siblings and I would wake up early and go to the range with my dad," says the model, who was home-schooled. "It was a bonding exercise."

Ferguson, who once worked for Trump Models ("No comment"), was also taught to fish by her dad. Scroll through her Instagram account and, between pictures of catwalks (Moschino), magazine covers (Elle, Sports Illustrated) and body-painted swimsuits (the fishnet number took 18 hours, no less), there she is wielding a 57-pound wahoo (a type of fish), along with two huge lobsters and a spectacular mahi (also a fish). "My arm was sore for two days after the wahoo," says Ferguson, who can spear mackerel from ten metres. "And it's a bigger catch than my boyfriend's ever had." The hashtag? #girlswhofish. Other hobbies include horse-riding, figure-skating and... barbering. "I always liked the idea of becoming a barber," says Ferguson. With a knack for shooting, spearing and reeling in, a cut and shave should be no trouble. Barber competitions beware.

Engineering Happiness at Zappos



Tyler Williams, 33, is the head of experiential marketing for Zappos, an online retailer based in Las Vegas.

Q. In the language of Zappos, you’re called a fun-gineer. Why?

A. Our chief of staff dug up the title for me. My job is to bring joy and smiles to Zappos’s 1,500 employees. (Without the hyphen, by the way, I’d be a technician of fungi.) For example, I built an instant dance party in the company lobby. It works like this: When you push a button with a sign under it that says, “Don’t ever push this button,” lights go on and music blares. My position comes within our brand aura department, which is similar to other companies’ brand marketing departments.

Zappos sells shoes and clothing online. How did you get a job there?

In truth, I did not have work experience related to anything at Zappos. I’d been a professional drummer since high school, had built stages and knew audiovisual technology. I had heard it’s easier to get accepted to Harvard than to get a job at Zappos. I took the creative route and wrote, starred in and produced a video about the company’s 10 core values. Once hired, my first job was at the customer call center.

That doesn’t sound like a good fit for a creative type like you. Was it?
Not exactly. But the job I applied for was filled internally. That made me admire the company for its integrity to promote from within. Everyone — even our C.E.O., Tony Hsieh — has worked the customer services lines. After six months, I became a new-employee trainer.

How did that eventually evolve into your current position?

Because I was handy with constructing things, I became known for developing and executing fun ideas. The turning point was when Tony was preparing to give a speech for Amazon in his apartment. He needed to show the video in three rooms simultaneously. I knew how to do that. That’s when a light went on in Jamie Naughton’s head. She’s our chief of staff, and suggested I write my own job description. Jamie started calling me a fun-gineer, and it stuck.

Do you miss playing drums?

I managed to create a musical opportunity for myself and the many other musicians working at Zappos. We set up a music stage in the trailer park where a lot of employees, including Tony, live. Once a month, musicians show up to jam. We call it Open Air. I don’t miss the life of a musician on the road at all, so this is a wonderful compromise.
