Hello World,
This is @FiveTrey_SCHG with another Q&A, but this
time with model @EnviGator. I first met
Envi back in 2012 and she’s 1st Lady of Swamp Life Ent based out of Columbia.
Her style is urban and raw, which is different from the average, but who want
to be the average when you can stand out from the rest. Also she’s the better half to “Boss Gator”
Bless’d Da Gator, CEO of Swamp Life Ent, making the perfect power couple.
World, I introduce @EnviGator.
@FiveTrey_SCHG: How are you doing? I want to say thanks for
taking the time to do this Q&A. Can
you tell the readers where you’re from?
@EnviGator: I am from Columbia SC.
@FiveTrey_SCHG: I read your resume and its stack. I see you
attended South Carolina State and received your Bachelors of Arts in Marketing
and also Masters of Arts in Human Resources from Webster University. How does
that help out with you modeling career?
@EnviGator: Having a degree is a positive; it shows that I
am not just a pretty face and nice body. Looking at me initially, people don’t
know that I am educated, but when conversing with me and seeing my model resume
there are enlighten.
@FiveTrey_SCHG: You
are in the class of Urban Models with the inked skin. Do you think that’s the
new look of modeling?
@EnviGator: Ink
models are in right now. Depending on whom you promote and submit your ink
pics, you can make a lot of money. Ink is trending right now. Lots of models
are becoming addicted to the ink and finding the right magazine to submit to
will make you a lot of money. Ink is a very sexy and adds sex appeal to a model
canvas, making them versatile.
@FiveTrey_SCHG: I also see you have dance experience in
Ballet, Tap, Jazz and Modern Dance. You are the ultimate package. Being
multi-talented is a plus in your career; does that give you a edge on the rest
of the field?
@EnviGator: Yes, Being a dancer makes me versatile in
photography. My poses are sharp and graceful. Its helps develop postures and
longevity in my pictures. In high fashion and urban modeling they like to see
flexibility and having the dance background allows me to exploit that in my
pictures.
@FiveTrey_SCHG: You have been feature in some mainstream
artist videos in 2012, what were those and how did it feel to work on that type
of atmosphere?
@EnviGator : I have been on scene with Jeezy and Red Café,
Slice 9 and Future. It has been truly an experience. Good and bad for me. It
made me realize the things I really want to do as far as modeling and the
things that I don’t want to do. I don’t think that the “Video Girl” modeling is
not for me unless I am the only model in the video or the “Only” main girl.
It’s just not where my heart is and it’s at least 7 hours of filming and you
work so hard and you are not even sure if your take will even make the video at
all. The money is not great and I appreciate the experience because I learned
how the game goes but I think I am over that as of right now in my career.
@FiveTrey_SCHG: You also have a rapping bone in your body.
Your debut was “Tongue Play” with Bless’d Da Gator and DG. I was shocked, but
it’s expanding your horizons. How did that come about you recording a verse and
is there more to come?
@EnviGator: Me “Rapping” is just for fun. I did that just to
test myself and my skills. I never thought about rapping or being a rapper.
Traveling with Bless’d to all her shows and always being with her gave us the
idea of doing a song. Bless’d said one day she was going to write me some
lyrics and I was all for it and we did it. I had fun doing the song because it
was something that we could do together and it gives both Bless’d and I
versatility in entertainment. Yes there is more to come because I want to go a
different route with the next song and test my abilities in a different style
of rapping.
@FiveTrey_SCHG: its 2013, 1st Quarter, What’s new
for Envi Gator?
@EnviGator: 2013 is “Murder Season” for me. I just signed
with an agency by the name of “Dyme Candy” and they have a great “Agenda” for
me this year. They just launched my website: Envigator.com and I have a few
photo shoots set up and a big run way show coming up for CIAA! I have been
asked to be a “Spokes model” for a nationwide phone company but nothing is in
stone yet.
@FiveTrey_SCHG: You and Bless’d is a power couple. How’s
having that nonstop support in your corner boosts you to be productive and vice
versa? S/O to Boss Gator #SwampDat
@EnivGator: Having Bless’d in my life has truly been an inspiration. I stopped taking “Modeling” serious for a minute. When Bless’d and I started talking she inspired me to do it again and that’s how “Gator Girls” came about. There are times when I want to give up or even just slow down, but she always push me and give me those words of encouragement that boost me back up. Just looking at her drive alone is motivational. We encourage each other to give everything our all. We are “Best friends” first and that helps a lot because we can give each other positive criticism without anything ever being taken personal. We just want each other to be the best we can be and that friendship allows us to be better producers to our craft.
@FiveTrey_SCHG: When
getting ready for a photo or video shoot, what gets you into your zone and what
can ruin it?
@EnviGator: When I do photo and video shoots I have to have
a few shots first. That is a must! It relaxes me and takes away the
nervousness. What can ruin it is a person being nonprofessional. I hate dealing
with people who are nonprofessional. I have to feel comfortable when I am
shooting and if I am not in my comfort zone I can’t perform to the best of my
ability. Also having Bless’d there is a must. She always tells me what she
likes and dislikes and that helps a lot because if she don’t like it then most
likely I am not going to like it. She has an eye for everything and she is so
well rounded in entertainment. She is an extra boost of confidence for me.
Looking at her while I am shooting makes me want to “Master” the shoot.
@FiveTrey_SCHG: Last question…….. If there was one thing you
would change about Envi Gator, what would it be?
@EnviGator: At this point I can honestly say there is
nothing I would change about myself. I am confident in whom I am and if there
is anything that needs to be changed I don’t know what it is…lol
@FiveTrey_SCHG: Again thanks for taking time out to work
with SC Homegrown and it was a great pleasure to work with you. If you want to shout out anyone or Turn Up,
here’s your chance!
@EnviGator: I just want to S/O Bless’d for being my back
bone, best friend, and lover! SwamplifeEnt/Gator Girls,SC Homegrown, Dyme
Candy, Great Girls Ent/GEI Magazine,Gotta Grind Films, SoBeIt Magazine,and
everybody who promotes and rock with me!
