Studio 5 South would like to welcome any ModelMayhem members to our 7th (ish) Philadelphia area Meet & Greet.

This one has a theme... WELCOME TO THE AWARDS SHOW!

The event will be held at the studio Saturday, May 26th, 2007 and start about 7pm.  The studio will be open and welcoming area photographers, models, makeup artists, stylists, costumers, and designers until about 1am.

The evening will start off with a red carpet reception, with 'paparazzi' photo station.  Come dressed in your best award show regalia!

The meet and greet planning committee is working on other new ideas to make this a great event.

All are welcome to attend, and as always there is no chargePlease bring a CD with small (600 px on the longest side) JPGs of your work so that we can add it to the show of work on the wall.  Bring also any cds of music you'd like to hear or if you're musically inclined, bring your instrument acoustic or amped.

The studio is having a few fundraisers to improve the studio space and obtain new equipment so if you'd like to donate to our studio feel free to make a donation at the event.

Bring snacks, bring whatever you want to drink, bring business cards and books, and bring your friends!

Any questions feel free to contact me.  Directions to the studio are available on the studio site at http://studio5south.raveneyes.com

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A little about what to expect, who should come, and what to bring:

Who? These meet & greets are a fun and informal way to get to know Philadelphia area professionals and amateurs.  This isn't a competition or a place for attitude, this is just for fun and networking.  If you're brand new to the area, be prepared to meet dozens of the area's most active photographers and models.  If you've been around for ages, come on by and take a close look at that model or photographer you've been thinking of working with... introduce yourself, and show your work.

Bring your books and promotional materials! This is important.  Many people attend these events and not only will you get to see how other people react to your work for real, you'll also get job offers and advice.  Also these events are partially controlled by those who attend.  Bring what you want!  You want to shoot on seamless? Bring it!  You want to have a beer? Bring it!  You want to have some munchies?  Bring 'em!  We have two freight elevators... just about anything goes...

What should you expect? You should expect to have fun and you should expect to get out of it what you put in to it.  Introduce yourself to 10 new people and you'll have made 10 new friends.  Sit in a corner and people watch... it's fun!  Toss your book out on the table and ask for a critique... YOU'LL GET ONE!  Pull out your camera or put on a special outfit and grab a photographer... plenty to shoot and plenty of people willing to shoot.  We haven't yet had a problem of people not wanting to shoot and being forced to, and we haven't ever had a problem with models just coming to show their book and not to shoot.


This particular event has a theme... and that theme is Welcome to the awards show.  If you'd like to play along, bring a gown or dress up in your tux and tie.  Be prepared to enter the red carpet shooting area and have the 'paparazzi' shot the heck out of you.  Don't want to be shot?  Don't go on the red carpet.  You make it what you want... we're flexible.

So welcome to all those who'd like to attend... and again, if anyone has *ANY* questions, concerns, gripes, or complaints... call me.  My number as always is 609 504 6762

Well, I am a pharmacist.  Let me bring something to tame the young one.  Hmmm..... suppository may be the best route of adminstration.  But you need to find a nurse to do the insertion for you.

Also, I want to gauge the interest in having a Meet and Greet vacation at Hedonism III in Jamaica...   I'm working with a travel agent to get some really great rates..  could be amazing.   Perhaps this September.  Let me know...
