New strobist shoot - Hippy/Florence and the Machine Theme

view profile

.Anouska. says:

I said in the last thread that I'd love to do a Hippy / Florence and the machine type shoot like in this video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nxO-yPQesA&feature=fvst

It's something i've wanted to do for ages as part of a personal project but i had so much fun on sunday learning about lights and stuff, i'd love to improve on it, and everyone was so helpful. Also i think its a cool idea and whoever wants to do it too are totally welcome :)

so if you guys are interested we should start planning the next one :)
I'm thinking perhaps Kiliney Hill, it's a beautiful location with loads of forest and loads of different interesting areas for shooting.

I know it will be very cold though the next coming months but I know models who will brave the cold (and myself too) like we did on Sunday.

so whoever is interested, holla back!

Sounds cool Anouska. Yip, I'd be interested alright.
Killiney Hill is a great location.

When are you thinking of doing this? Before Christmas? Or early Jan?

.Anouska. says:

probably after Christmas might suit everyone, i'd say everyone is going to be pretty busy coming up to it!

But if people are free before christmas that'd be great too!

so its up to everyone else really, then we can work around it!

deadly idea far play .. you should check out some of the second hand stores in town... i saw a stack of stuff for next to nothing ( 2&3 euro) .. mad props dresses etc.. which would really make it.

.Anouska. says:

17th of Jan would suit me fine!
and yeah i was thinking of just going into second hand shops to get loads of stuff, where is this one you're talking about??

im thinking loads of streamers and colourful material dragged on the trees, just loads of colour and fairy-tale like things floating about!

and we should deffo getting some sort of sound system along so we can listen to FATM ;) inspiration!

The only problem i can think of (apart from perhaps the cold) would be where would we set up for the make up artists and models - to get changed etc?

i wanna model in this shoot aswel so i'll do my own make up before hand and hair to avoid what happened last time cause i really want to shoot alot aswel!
but im glad people are liking this idea!! :D

17th Jan is good.... sensing a large flask of hot whisky might be mandatory in the kit-bag. A gas fired hot air blower could go down well too.

I'm back from Berlin on the 16th, so 17th should be good for me.

I think it might be an idea to stock up on warm heavy coats/blankets and some thermos flasks (for tea, of course) ;-)

Anyone got a tent ? ;-)

Dave Shiel  Pro User  says:

Hi Anouska,

The people that have confirmed so far, can you seperate the names out into groups: Photogs, Models, MUA/Hair?

That way its much easier to see at a glance in which department we're lacking numbers.

I may have a model thats interested. She has to get back to me though, as she may be doing exams.

A few of us did a fashion student shoot a few weeks before Christmas.

A few tips: It is cold up there! Blankets for the models are essential.
and there are distances to cover. If a horse is not possible at least a few ponies for carrying the gear! The day we were there we found a coffee shop working with decent latte-at the Killiney village gate, very limited parking.
Great backgrounds of Killiney Bay but some climbing in strong boots required-for all the team. Treat it as the lower Himalayas and we will be fine!

To help the day go smoothly can we fill the following roles:

Photographer coordination:
Location Liaison:
Model Liason:
MUA Liason:
Food & Drink:
Image Collection:
Money Collector:

A few additional points:
Everyone works on a TF* basis however, we have at almost all meet ups tried to cover costs for MUA's and contribute to costs for models. In some cases additional costs like location & refreshments have been incurred - the charge is usually 10 - 20 euro per photographer.

In addition, please submit your high res images to either Flickr with the tags Dublin Strobist and/or to the designated image collector within two weeks or miss out on the opportunity to participate in future Dublin Strobist events.

Can I also suggest creating a new topic to discuss themes and to post wardrobe options.

That's a good idea to start a new topic, i'm new to this tho so i'm not sure how to start one! Also I know that a few of the models have a page here but do the other models listed have a page / or are on folio or mm? It'd just give me a better idea of who im styling for. Would someone be able to confirm that there's 5 models in total? Thanks a mil!x

Also we need to decide on a time, I'm thinking the earlier the better, as in around 10 o clock then it should take about an hour or so for the models to get their hair and make up done, so we could start around 11am.

what do people think of this?
