6 Ways Cold Stone Could Step Their Modeling Game Up

I'm using my modeling skills to take corporate America to the next level.

6 Ways Cold Stone Could Step Their Modeling Game Up
Warren Bryan

I have always wanted to be a model. I have worked long and hard to awaken my inner Blue Steel.

One of the ways I hone my craft is by critiquing the ads I see in stores, analyzing the fake looking laughs, figuring out how to make glamour eyes, cataloging the nuances of smolders I see. All so I can one day fulfill my dream of being the next Derek Zoolander.

My recent trip to Cold Stone Creamery was no exception. This is what I saw in the store.


These models are high quality. Look at that powerful gaze. Look at those crisp eyebrows. LOOK AT THAT ICE CREAM!!!

These ads are clearly done by professionals, however I noticed a few places a little sprinkle of Warren's Modeling Magic (TM, coming to stores near you soon) would take them over the top. Here are 6 things I would change to make these ads incredible.

1. Not looking while making ice cream

You probably can't read the sign, but it says, "our crew members make fresh batches of smooth & creamy ice cream in this store." This makes me worried because Exhibit One's eyes are not looking at the ice cream she is supposed to be making, which seems like a fundamental rule of anything.

Mix ups like this can lead to even more troublesome things. Like #2.

2. Hand ice cream


OH MY GOSH IS THAT ICE CREAM TOUCHING HER HAND?!?!? It's hard to tell but by golly it is dangerously close. This is what happens when you don't pay attention to the work you are doing.

Next time no hand in ice cream, no matter how creamy and wonderful its texture is. Hand ice cream tastes good, but remove the hand from the ice cream and waffle cone sales will double, I guarantee it.

3. So glow

This model seems to have an unnatural glow, and I don't like it. Either she has been training for years and finally achieved Legendary Super Saiyan or these "Refreshingly Delicious Ice Blended Coffee Drinks" have something fishy going on with them. Like the fact that they MAKE YOU GLOW.

4. Don't put it up your nose

If I didn't know any better, and I don't, I would say it looks like she is about to shove this drink right up her nose. Maybe whipped cream up the nose makes for good modeling, but it certainly doesn't move the cupcakes.

The ratio of drink-closeness-to-face and face-not-touching-drink in this picture is drastically off. In real life her chin would have been cleft-deep into that whipped cream. Take that cleft out a little bit and whammy, stock prices go up 200%.

5. Evil Villain Hands

She is clearly plotting something. This frappe is the first step in her quest for world domination. In a word, "dastardly." No one wants a taste of evil in their Friday night treat.

6. Put me in it

Tell me they don't look alike. MY MODELING DAYS HAVE COME!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
