New Project

Hey everyone, right for an update on my planned projects for 2011.


Today, after a total panic when I both lost and forgot my plans for a shoot on Monday had a moment of inspiration and brainstormed some ideas for future shoots.


Now, what I am writing about this for is that I am looking for a team of people to make this happen as it really will need a team of creative people!


To best categorise the type of shoots I have planned would be Vogue - Teen Vogue styling, if you want to think "main stream media"


To achieve just 2 particular sets of images I have in mind I will be needing props which I think I have easy access to just in my own house (and a few things in the houses of other relatives), Make Up Artists, Hair Stylists, Stylists and some pretty unusual clothing so if any free lance fashion designers want to put their oar in feel free.


Now, sounds too good to be true? it is.
This and others this year are going to be entirely for portfolio enhancement and to stretch out of my own comfort zones and so because of this I am working to very stricken budgets because lets be honest, if this was actually being shot for vogue, it would be a £100,000 budget at least!


So I am going to have to ask with the audacity and cheek that people will work with me on my vision and purely for the benefit of their own portfolios and no financial reward, just the reward of creating some truly great images.


In return I will be supplying high resolution fully edited images for your own portfolios and to use to advertise your work as you wish and hopefully show yours and my versatility as a creative professional.


Now I have got past the shock kick in the knees bit if you will for a moment take the time to listen to some vagueness about what I am looking for in all aspects and to achieve;


The shoot will be on location, it will have a look of worn down glamour to it, it will feature props and will be extravagant looking for largely stylish clothing, slick and extravagant hair and detailed make up to add contrast and compliment the model as a whole.


The set of images will incorporate close up shots that can feature uniquely designed pieces of jewellery, and show off beautifully designed clothes and dresses (to clarify I have in my vision lots of jewellery including necklaces, bangles, rings etc and on the fashion I have sights of possible cat suits and flowing wavy dresses).


I also have in mind the use of mirrors to quite a big extent which to hair stylists and MUA's will allow to show off a wholly rounded image of the work done.


Models, I will be looking for several and where possible ones that ideally fit the idealised shared vision between the stylists, and myself.


Finally, I will have to leave you with this,


if you are any of the above, and you are interested in working to achieve this, please contact me ideally by email:

I will be looking to sit down with everyone who wants to get involved, because of what I am asking each person to give I want to sit and discuss with you all what you all want to take out from it so it can at least be a fair deal and hopefully many will keep me on the right track to making these shoots and sets a success!


I thank you all for your time reading this and look forward to hearing from you and working with you.


Sincerely 


Barry
