Andrew, does the photographer have to email you in advance with his intent to participate?  Does he/me need to be added to a list of those particpating/submitting images prior to the submission?  Also when do submissions have to be in by?  Thanks.

No notice of intent is needed from you or the photographer.

There is no list of models or photographers.

I have not yet set a closing date or end of submissions date. I want everyone to get a good chance to set up and create some great images.

It will probably be around the end of September or maybe mid October depending....

Besides fitting the theme and specs, the only other requirements are that the image not be older than 6 to 9 months, and that they have NEVER been posted online or in any print form.. (ie: no books or magazines) As we advertise the books as NEW and NEVER before seen images.

I dont know what you "cast" for, but from previous experience.. it might be what you posted or how you posted it.

I've posted casting calls, too, with not much luck. You've got to contact the models personally.

Oh, and now that I've read more, I'll look through my recent shots and send you some, Andrew.  Hopefully you will like some of them.  I just put one up in my port (Union Jack theme) that was shot last Thursday.  I'm so-o-o happy with it!

Hi Dorien,

Welcome to the Mayhem, and to the Over 40 thread.


Before sending your older shots... please read the above posted specs... The images can not have ever been posted online or in print... and CANT be older than 6 to 9 months.

Good advice. I'm starting to think it's not worthwhile to devote too much time to checking/applying for castings so perhaps that is also the experience of models in your area. There have been a couple of exceptions, but overall I've found the great majority of castings are looking for younger models (no surprises there). Direct approaches - from them or me - seems to be working better and wastes less precious time.

It is not on the calendar yet, so I am not sure. I would have done it with Elijah.

Just put up another casting call for 40+ models---we'll see what happens. Any other suggestions on what I should ask for. Thanks

Tony/Tami.. You can always do a browse here on MM, Browse with a ocation or radius of your location, pick models that are near you in Ohio, and message them. Tell them what you are looking for, what it is all about and what you are willing to give them as it is TFP/CD. That will sometimes get to some of the models that do not look at the casting calls here on MM.
