A ROUND-ROBIN, LUCK-OF-THE-DRAW, PHOTO SHOOT-OFF

A New Participatory Exercise


So here's the idea:
Everyone interested in participating sends me a private message with their name and contact info (Cell Number and Email address).

When everyone's names are in I start drawing pairs of names.

Each pair arrange to meet within two weeks, at a place and time convenient to both to create a portrait of each other.
This can be on location, in studio, at home, where ever, it's your choice.

You can approach this like Avedon or Leibovitz shooting a magazine cover or you can approach this like a corporate headshot for an annual report.

It doesn't matter what equipment the photographer chooses to use or not use. This is a creative exercise in artistic expression not a contest. No rules, no judging.

You can begin submitting your names to me now via PM. Please make sure you include your Name, Cell number and email address.

The Deadline to enter is Friday January 30th. Names will be drawn, matches will be made and contact info for your "partner" will be emailed to you.

When all portraits are complete we'll post them in their own gallery and each photographer will have the opportunity to explain what decisions they made to achieve the final portrait.

So, who's in?

If anyone will be in NOLA during that time frame you can count me in, otherwise I'll have to pass.

Hi 'Charlie' ... er, Charles. No offense to you or anyone else, but for the record, I don't respond to "Charlie" (or "Chuck" or "Chuckie", etc.) but, "Charles" works just fine.

As far as webcams go: I have a built-in one on my Mac at my hideout, but, I don't have one with me in NOLA on my OLD-on-the-road-workhorse of a MacBook. I'll be replacing it soon and then I'll be set up for such occasions.

Too bad it seems no LPC folks are planning a visit to NOLA during Carnival Season or any other time between now and March 1st or so. No one up for Carnival ? Let me know if any of you decide to come on down here.

This round of the project is closed. I will be picking names out of a hat later today.
