CASTING CALL – Need child participants for photo art exhibit

I have just been accepted to exhibit at Gallery 88 for my black and white photo art project on race relations. The goal of the exhibit, which will not only run during the presidential inauguration but during Martin Luther King Day, is to open the minds and hearts of viewers to what race and ethnicity is and isn’t. Invitations to visit the gallery will be sent out to all sorts of community and civic groups within Escambia and Santa Rosa county.

I am running a casting call/model search for participants in my project. I need children between the ages of 2-8 years. I am looking for children of all races and skin color.

Requirements:

1. Parents must sign full model release on behalf of their child.

2. You must be willing to bring your child to a local designated location for approximately 2 hours to play with other children and be photographed.

3. Child must like being photographed and not be shy around other children.

4. Parents must harbor no racial prejudice.

5. Parents must be comfortable with their child’s photo being featured in the media (print, television and website) both locally and possibly nationally.

Compensation:

1. Each child’s parents will receive a matted and signed black and white photo of their child.

2. Invitation to a special VIP reception for all participants during the exhibit which will be held at Gallery 88.

So if you are interested or know of someone who would be, please email me at trista@lookwhojustblouin.com and let me know. Interested parties will need to send me a recent photo of their child and the answers to a few screening questions.
