Mike Giant Needs Models

San Francisco Bay Area ladies get ready: Mike Giant needs 12 models for a new series he’s working on. “I'm starting a new series of photo/illustrations and I'm putting out a model call which opens tomorrow.“ “In the fall of 2005 I produced a series of 18 illustrations on photographs entitled Las Chicas de Burque. My intent was to create a fantasy portfolio of gangster pin-ups that paid homage to the homegirls I saw growing up in the late 1970s in my hometown of Albuquerque, or 'Burque' for short. For the finished pieces, I had my digital photographs printed on 18x24" sheets of fine drawing paper and added the illustrations with Sharpies. Here's some examples from the series, which was shown in its entirety at The Lab 101 Gallery in Culver City in November of that year.
Mike Giant continues: “All models need to be at least 18 years old. Semi-nudity may be required in some cases, but nothing more provocative than the examples I provided above. I can pay each model a $400 as a flat day rate.
“I will be holding open castings at The Skullz Press studio at 260 Divisadero Street this Saturday July 18, from noon to 7pm. There will be a second open casting on Sat July 25 at the same times. If you can't make it to the studio on either of those Saturdays, or you live out of town and would still like to be considered, for free to e-mail me a few photos and some basic information about yourself. mike@mikegiant.com
“Models will be chosen by the end of this month so that shooting can begin in August.
“Thanks for your help!”
