26 Project

RCNPhotos

Hey guys,

I'm doing a project at the minute on statistics, in particular the statistic released by AMEN (www.Amen.ie) the 26% of men suffer from domestic abuse. (The original source was the national crime council).

I want to photograph 100 men. The actual images themselves won't be too stunning, but when their all together I'm hoping they'll give an impact.

So anyway, that means I need 100 men, not too hard right?

If any boardsies would be up for sitting that would be cool. I'm shooting in college (Griffith, near portabello, on the south circular road). It'd take only a minute. Just wanted to put it up here in case anyone was around there some day and wanted to pop in for 2 mins. Or if anyone knows someone else maybe? I can only book the studio at certain times so might not always be possible but thought I'd try anyway and see.

Cheers guys,

-Ryan

I'll do it, live close to the college too.

Mr DeMille, I'm ready for my close up, etc

Why would anyone pose for a project depicting abuse, if they weren't involved in it? Should you not use models or real victims.

Maybe they are Tommie? That's the thing about domestic abuse - it gets hidden, especially if the victims are male..

Anyway, I'll ask the OH. When are you shooting Ryan?
