The majority of you know I'm in a photo class at school, where we're asked to do some really intense projects. In the past, for my projects, I've put a plastic bag over my head and inhaled, lied on train tracks, put polymer goo all over my arms, acted natural and cool with my hair in a casserole dish of colored water, covered my body in mud, pretended to be terminally ill in a hospital bed, and dressed like a hooker while standing in 37 degree weather outside a library.

This year, I really want to up the ante. I want to do something that will really make me stand out (even more?) There's about 20 people or so in my class. I definitely don't want to be just like the other girls with mediocre pictures of themselves in the bathroom. Or the girls that spend hours and hours putting lipstick on a pig; manipulating a lackluster picture, attempting to make it strong.

Our projects have started up again. So far, the only eccentric thing I've done is take pictures on a roof. I was thinking about doing something with water, but I'm not quite sure what I want to do.

What is some other insane/eccentric/exteme/intense/ballsy/awesome things I can do? Be creative please, yet possible. I don't think I can hang out on the moon.

How about an illusion that you're being held underwater by some sort of weight/anchor type thing? Not sure how or where you would do this though. You may be accused of attempting suicide biggrin.gif

How about being dressed like a tramp and sitting alone in the middle of nowhere, so it appears as you are begging for money? Or different places you being dressed like a tramp i.e extremely public places.

I must say, your project ideas have been amazing, i'd love to see some pictures.

It would be cool for you to do a single photo, with two versions of you in it. Like normal you vs. your alter ego or just complete opposite!

Yeah I don't want to do anything dark. I want to keep it pretty innocent lol.

haha this sounds like it would be fun. I don't think being a tramp will tie into my theme, but an alley would be cool.

Are you talking about the things I listed in my 1st paragraph? Those are in my picture thread. Dunno what page.
Or are you talking about the current project? lol because I'm saving those till the end to show everyone.

Haha sounds like my madness/reality thing I was trying to do a couple weeks ago. I think we've done something in the past at school like this too.

Lindsey - oh my god I want to be a pool so bad. Haha. Like you don't even know. I've saw a woman's pictures (Elena Kalis if you care lmao) where she has an underwater housing for her camera, so she was taking pictures of her daughter in the ocean and in the pool. It was amazingggg. The fluidity of the water is everything I'm trying to capture haha.



For my 31 Nights, I'm being lost, then found. And I'm trying to think of some locations where I can be so show that I'm searching a lot.
Such as
-park
-landfill
-cave (couldn't do this one lol but something like that?)
