Artistic Nudity Project [Photography]

I was thinking about how successful Suicide Girls is.
It's an artistic pinup collection expressed through Photography to celebrate and promote body art.
And that is the public it attracts.

So I had an idea, and I already have one model done who was kind enough to participate.
Nude Female Geek pinups.
The girls gamers dream of dating or playing against.
Some with Nintendo and Atari tattoos.
But real girls who are into Anime and Games, not naked women set up to pose.
And instead of a Model name or a Stripper name, they'd go by their Screen Name or XBox Live name or something.
I have one I was working on earlier.

I feel like that'd go somewhere.

You lucky son bitch. I wan see her tities.

TITS OR GTFO. ;D

I think this idea would be fucking awesome. D:

You could just pose any girl with gaming equipment and call her a gamer though.

Yeah, but I don't want to do that.
I want to find actual gamers.
The same reason I don't tell people to smile or pose specific ways during a photo shoot.
Just be natural, be yourself. Keep a conversation.
I'll catch your expressions, they'll be more real that way, and I don't have to feel like I'm throwing a mask on something.
Turning it into what I want it to be, rather than what it really is.

Lol i like your non perverted mind. Good idea btw.

Could you post some examples of your portraits?

All untouched by Photoshop.

Yeah but if you took pictures of her while she actually played the game, that would be terrific because girls that pose with gaming equipment are not usually playing the game, they are just holding it.

...That's also a fucking fantastic idea.
Screen names, them actually playing the games, Maybe if it gets big I can get some good names from Anime and Gaming to pose with them.
Like um...idk. Just an idea.
But I love that idea, Ethan. You fucking rock.

I love a few of them, and the only thing I can suggest is watch out for grain and focus when it comes to faces.
Getting the eyes in focus is a great way to drag in the viewer, as you probably know. :)

Ethan-
I'm just not sure how you'll be able to have girls looking attractive, especially whilst playing a video game.
I know I'm definitely not being sexy when playing, more like raging, haha.

I disagree, I saw you on Tinychat and was like WOAH THERE! xD But photography of women isn't always about capturing "sexy."

Oh now I will file a claim on the idea. Wuahahaha. :P
Kidding but I think it'd be amazing all around.

Damn my whole seeing is believing thing.

Playboy put out this calendar once of unphotoshopped women. It sold about as much as one of their magazines do, because it was a different taste. A more realistic taste. Knowing "Wow, I could easily run into her somewhere and actually have a conversation." It makes it more possible and the viewers can relate to it better.

So casually gaming like...topless or something, having fun with friends or alone, would be awesome.
It'd give more of that "Yeah, I'm relaxed in my own home. Not ready to sleep yet, but ready for bed whenever. Lets play Skyrim"
and that's the thought and fantasy situation that would be running through every gamers head when he sees it.
That's more attractive to them than like...Hustler or something.
But the central idea of the artistic nudity expressed through gamers and their passion would still be there, and not too overwhelming to be unrealistic.
Hell, I used to go over to my friend Bonnies house to game with her sometime, and she'd just be chillin topless playing Spyro on the PS1, eating Yogurt and drinking beer.

:) I'm sure you can pull it off. And thanks lol. That was when I was still trying to figure out how to work with the ISO.

Do this and come up with a product or get an existing brand to sign you on once you have several girls and generate some buzz.
Seriously You've come up with a brilliant idea and you can market it and get rich with this. The photos and the girls themselves operating under the concept could be copyrighted under some brand name you come up with and then you could sell association to another brand. IE: whatever you call yourself becomes official whatever girls of MLG or something.

You just have to figure out how to sell it. A magazine could be a good idea. Actually if you could get one of them into a existing magazine or use a less revealing shot to get placed in gaming magazines, you could then get paid feasible to have these girls just show and hang out at events.

Only problem I can see is the fact that you use their gamer tag as their "name"
How many models will you have agreeing to that, seeing as how every fat desperate neckbeard is going to try and add them once they see the pictures?

All the models I have are already aware that their screenname would be their usual name.
They model for the sake of artistic nudity, as most models do.
For art. So girls modeling themselves and using pen names or gamer names would be okay, because they'd already know the risks of going into it.
Surprisingly, not a lot care lol.

That's such a fantastic idea! I know a few people in the magazine business, I just wasn't sure about how to go about it.
I love you so much!

I'm not either. Still I have a advertising class this semester and I can talk to my professor about it.
