Both model fields and form fields allow you to specify whether the value
is required to be filled in at declaration time. Trying to change it
afterwards is likely to lead to fairly fragile code, so you should try
to avoid doing this for both forms and models.
The equivalent concept for models is the "blank" parameter that you pass
to the model field. For example:
my_field = models.CharField(blank=False, max_length=50)
