Best Answer

TFP stands for one or more of the following:Time For Prints

Time For Portfolio

Trade For Prints

Trade For Portfolio

You will also see digital shooters use the phrase "TFCD" or "TFP/CD." These mean: Time/Trade for CD

Time/Trade for Prints/CD

Whatever the particular phrase the letters stand for, the basic idea is simple: In a TFP shoot, no money changes hands. The model doesn't get an hourly or session fee, and the photographer doesn't get an hourly fee, a session fee, or any pay for providing the model with prints and/or digital images (the "CD" part - usually the model gets a CD-R with her image selection burned onto it.) All participants are doing the shoot in hopes of getting good quality images for their portfolios, which they can use for self-promotion to get more, and hopefully paying, work.

TFP is usually the domain of amateur photographers and/or beginning models, although many pros will do a TFP shoot with an amateur model (or an amateur photographer) who can't pay their usual rates but whose look or previous work the professional finds intriguing. That doesn't mean that outstanding work can't be produced at a TFP shoot: many amateur photographers are "amateurs" only in that Photography is not how they pay their bills, and have talent and equipment equal to most professional photographers. Images obtained through TFP sessions are in many a model's portfolio and have earned many a callback from an agency or pro shooter.

What is the best way to get into modelling?

The most immediate way is to present yourself to a modelling agency through castings or get scouted. You can also build up a portfolio through doing tfp/tfcd (Time for pictures/Time for CD) with photographers who are also looking at expanding or building their portfolio. This means neither you or the photographer will get paid for the shoot, but you'll both get a copy of the pictures either in print form or on a cd. Eventually when you've put together a portfolio you may be offered paid work by better photographers, once you have a high quality portfolio you can then go and present it to an agency. You can find TFP/TFCD photographers on online modelling websites or photographer webites.


What is the role of information technology in communication?

iformation tachnology Science, technology and innovation have become key factors contributing to economic growth in both advanced and developing economies. In the knowledge economy, information circulates at the international level through trade in goods and services, direct investment and technology flows, and the movement of people. Information and communication technologies (ICT) have been at the heart of economic changes for more than a decade. ICT sector plays an important role, notably by contributing to rapid technological progress and productivity growth. Firms use ICTs to organize transnational networks in response to international competition and the increasing need for strategic interaction. As a result, multinational firms are a primary vehicle of the everspreading process of globalization. New technologies and their implementation in productive activities are changing the economic structure and contributing to productivity increases in OECD economies. Economic competitiveness depends on productivity level and in the knowledge economy, ICT sectors determine the productivity level. As a result , we can say that the power of economic competitiveness of a country depends on the productivity of its ICT sector. There are two ways to improve the TFP of ICT and to improve the power of competitiveness. First of all, if the selected countries solve their inefficiency problem by reallocation of resources, they can improve their TFP of the ICT sector and as a result they can be more competitive. Secondly, the technological improvement in these countries creates an expectation about increasing TFP of ICT sector for future. If there will be a sustainable technological improvement by innovation, it will cause a sustainable increase in the TFP of ICT sector and as a result it will cause a sustainable increase in competitiveness.

What do tf mean?

TF stands for "Time For" and applies to the working arrangement between models and photographers. A regular "TF" usually means a trade photoshoot where both the model and photographer offer their services free of charge in exchange for being able to use the resulting photos for their portfolios and promotional purposes like social media. There are different forms of a "TF" arrangement that include: TFP "Time for Prints": in exchange for their services as a model, the photographer agrees to provide free prints of the chosen photos the model can use in his/her portfolio. TFCD "Time for CD": in exchange for their services as a model, the photographer agrees to provide a CD of images from the shoot for a model to use in his/her portfolio.
