HI EVERYONE - AS YOU CAN SEE WE'VE BEEN VERY BUSY ORGANISNG THE PHOTOSHOOT, BORROWING LOVELY CLOTHES FOR EVERYONE TO WEAR FROM AMERICAN APPAREL AND DOING THIS TEST SHOOT THIS MORNING.
This shows a few of the clothes that we have borrowed and the kind of poses we expect you lot to 'pull'. Obviously as you're all a creative bunch ideas for poses are welcome. We're doing something post production over the image (CHECK BRIGHTER SHOW BLOG) to make sure our image isn't a direct copy of our inspiration image, so fear not...
BOYS! BRING TRACKSUIT BOTTOM - WHITE, GREY, COLOURED... or anything else bright coloured and bold - apart from blue and black and grey jeans. Bring T shirt, vests, hoodies and accessories etc too.
GIRLS! BRING LEGGINGS - OF ALL COLOURS, BRIGHT, PLAIN TOPS AND SKIRTS/SHORTS/ ETC. Also bring jewellery if you want it - but no necklaces as they get in the way. Think about how you want your hair to look if it's long. If you don't want it to fly about, tie it up etc. Also... if you wear make-up, be prepared to have to wear more than you normally do. I had to wear full on make up today - and it made me look like a drag queen, but you can hardly see it in the images. So - make-up - bright colours - lipstick, blusher and eyeshadow - annd lots of eyeliner... only if you want make-up obviously....
Obviously, judging from these pics you can use your own discretion as to what you think will be suitable (which we will then help to fit in with the concept and style of the shoot.

Guys
I got quite screwed with my planned photoshoot on Monday evening meaning I have to shoot on Tuesday evening meaning I won't be there until Wednesday morning meaning I will be fried and look like shit... but I suppose the latter is my problem. Big sunglasses are the answer.
Anyway, am about to e-mail people to arrange a swap but just a notice.

PS is anyone else seeing the blog in German?
I think that having all the students with a same clothes, somehow loses potencial of what it could be.
Instead each one could show their individuality.
And THAT´S when it gets interesting.
erm... if you had read this post properly then you would know that no one will be wearing the same clothes.
and if you had ever styled a photoshoot before you'd know that there needs to be some sort of style guide to make sure all the photographs look like they're from the same set.
aren't you from the second year?
I'm swapping good old reliable Chris C!
Thanks x
Sounds really good and this pic is fantastic! I just can't wait!

HAVE ONLY JUST SUSSED THAT THE TEST SHOOT IS SOME OF OUR OWN LEVEL 3 SUPERSTARS...HOW MUCH AM I LOVING THE GOLD PANTS AND ALEX WITH A HIGH-TRAKKIE WAISTLINE!..HOPE THAT ALEISTERS' CONCERNS CAN BE RESOLVED, IF HE'S LOOKING WAR-TORN AFTER HIS LATEST STINT PHOTOGRAPHING SCANTILY CLAD LADIES, THEN JUST SLAP ON SOME EXTRA 'MAC'.
SO FAR- ALL GOOD! (VERY BRAVE OF A SECOND YEAR TO CONTRIBITE AN INANE COMMENT, LET'S TRUST THAT'S THE LAST OF THAT SORT OF STUFF)!

I hope you guys have bought a colourful set of pants for me to wear,'cause i dont have any tracksuits other than a black one.
Sorry guys, my brief comment was not clear before. It was my fault, i should have made it more clear.
Yes i am from the second year. My name is Andre Coral, I must say that the only thing I wanted to point (but failed to fully explain it) is that the idea for the centrefold is great. I am aware of what was asked and also know what was done last year, and let me tell you that this idea, visually speaking, is light years away of the centrefold from last year, the only remark/instantaneous thought that crossed into my mind when I saw it was to, even, ask the students to come as they are, that’s all. So that you could look to the poster as a whole composition of people, but as well look to details within the character. Details that fully define who they are, but when looking to a bigger picture (because they would be in a grid system right? as the example?) they form “the class of 06-07”
It was just a simple and naive idea.
Above everything else, keep up the good work!
Good luck for your projects, hope everything goes according to plan.
