04: Diversity Publication - Photographer Collab - Brief

This project began with a chat with Anisa from photography, a brief, a inspo board and me reading through her diss. This was the basis for then genrating some ideas 

Brief

The fashion industry has been known for discriminating against models of colour for decades. An issue that has never fully been addressed and still causes problems for young, new models of today. For the practical aspect of this module, I am going to create a series of fashion style images that focus on celebrating cultural diversity. The same theme will run throughout each shoot, however a variety of models from different cultural backgrounds will be used. The final outcome will ideally be a publication showcasing 8-10 models. The intentions for these images, is not to segregate models of colour. I want to make images that bring various ethnicities together, to prove that racial discrimination within the fashion industry should not be an issue in the 21^st century.

Anisa noted that she wanted to keep the publication fresh interesting but to keep the focus on the images. 


Initial Thoughts 

An exciting project which is touching on an important topic and one that the 'client' feels passionate about.
