A-Z Challenge 3.0: D, E, and F
ATTENTION FELLOW FLICKR FRIENDS: Looking for some inspiration? Leslie (Bogostick) and I are excited to announce A-Z Challenge 3.0's November themes! We hope you will consider joining us!
Group Description
A monthly challenge for doll photographers to find inspiration and contribute. Three themes based on each letter of the alphabet will be presented each month.
Members can submit a photo for one, two, or all themes. At the end of the month, members will vote for their favorite photos.
Participation is based on your time and inspiration. While we hope everyone can create a photo for each month, it is not required. Come and go as you like!
Submit just one photo per theme. Last day to submit photos for these themes is November 30th!
Read below for information about each theme. You can also visit the following discussion post: www.flickr.com/groups/2962397@N20/discuss/72157711633871233/
Themes for the month of November:
D - Doppelgänger
Look-alike. Clone. Spitting image. They say everyone has a twin, and the same is true in the dolly world! For this theme, you must photograph two dolls that bear a strong physical resemblance to each other. You can achieve this through identical face sculpts, similar hair styles, and/or matching outfits. How you choose to approach this theme is entirely up to you. Just be sure we think we are seeing double!
*Special note: This doppelgänger theme was a suggestion from Smitten www.flickr.com/photos/131751222@N07/. Thank you so much for this terrific theme idea!
E - Everything ‘80s
Let’s travel back to the future and revisit the outrageous, eccentric decade of the 1980s. From iconic to over-the-top, the ‘80s was one of the most influential decades in fashion, pop culture, and even politics. You can approach this theme from any perspective you can think of: No idea, shoulder pad or hairstyle is too big! Your doll could pay tribute to one of her favorite style or music icons of the '80s as seen on a teen magazine or music cassette cover. She could be a mallrat, shopping for a punk leather jacket and lace gloves. Is your doll getting physical by sporting leotards and leg warmers like video workout queen/actress Jane Fonda, or is he about to cut footloose a la Kevin Bacon at an '80s themed costume party? From your doll sitting in a room with Duran Duran and Princess Diana posters on the wall, to riding in a sleek, "talking" Pontiac Trans AM, let your imagination go as wild as the decade!
F - Frozen
Brrr! Baby, it's cold outside! This theme is all about feeling the chill of winter. Show your doll doing his or her best to enjoy the freezing temperatures outside with activities like ice skating or skiing. Think magazine photoshoots featuring crisp menswear amid snow-covered landscapes and gray blue skies, or capture the magic of the season with ice castles and snow queen makeup editorials. From frosted cabin windows to glistening ice caves, snowmen and polar bears, there are lots of "cool" possibilities for this theme.
Make sure to title your photos with the theme you are representing. (example: A-Z challenge: A - Apple)
D - Doppelgänger
E - Everything ‘80s
F - Frozen
Most importantly, have lots of fun! Let's get those creative juices flowing! :)
