We'll continue the monthly Open House tradition on Friday March 25, 2011, from 6pm-midnight.
Open House event web page: http://www.starkravenmusic.com/openhouse.html
RSVP's for this month's event due by 6pm Wed March 23 (see additional information regarding RSVP policy at bottom of this post).

In March, we'll offer our customary studio tours, social/networking space, and one studio room open for casual TFCD shooting.
In addition, within this month's event, DRS Images and bodypainter extraordinaire Lisa Berczel (Battledress Paint-n-Body) will be presenting a very special 'Super Heroine' themed bodypaint shoot on the studio's back lot.


As always, it is free to attend Open House.
For the bodypaint shoot ONLY, there is a $20 fee for each photographer who would like to take part in this facet of the event.
Funds collected will be given in payment to the models.

The Open House photo shoot policies for open shooting and for formal special event shooting can be found in the forum sticky thread here.

For the 'Super Heroine' themed shoot, here are the specifics:
Featured models: Emobi (MM #534673) and MissQuinn (MM #1614929)
Stylists: Lisa Berczel and Donna Hoffstee, along with additional guest stylists
Lighting and set: DRS Images

Shoot fee: $20 per person, payable in cash at the door. Collected fees will be given to the models as payment for posing for the shoot. Only those paying the shoot fee will be permitted to have cameras in the set area for this shoot.

Model releases: Promotional releases will be provided by the studio. This release will allow for online and print portfolio usage of images from this photo shoot, and will be the only release permitted for this shoot.

Event time: Bodypainting/styling/set building will be underway as the Open House begins at 6pm. Expect the main shoot to begin sometime around 7:30-8pm.


RSVP policy for the event:
**If you have never been to the studio before, please RSVP including the name of each guest coming with you.
**If you've been here before, no RSVP is required for yourself.
**If you are bringing guests who have not been here before, either:
a) RSVP with the name of each guest you are bringing, or
b) have each of your guests RSVP on their own behalf


All RSVP's should be made to studio@dm-gremlin.com, and are due by 48 hours in advance of the event - for the 3/25 Open House, the RSVP deadline is 6pm on Wed 3/23.


Thank you!

Thank you to everyone who made this such a fantastic event!

I did no shooting myself at this Open House, so am just awaiting seeing some of the great images from Lonny (DRS Images), who set up the bodypaint shoot, and from everyone who took part in the Super Heroine shoot and open shooting with Sophia, Christine, Frenzy, and others.

I also want to put another thank you out there to our amazing stylists, Lisa Berczel, Donna Hoffstee, and hairstylist Jason Becker. It really is a privilege to have these world-class professionals coming to the studio to contribute their talents to events here.

And finally, thank you to Lee Berczel for helping (read: doing most of the work) to construct the new makeup vanity lights & mirror fixture that is now installed on the Studio B makeup station. Here's a photo I took the next morning while tidying for the day's studio rentals, of Lee's signature upon his handiwork, written in the sawdust left on the mirror from the sawing and drilling. An odd commemoration of this month's Open House, but a nice reminder of the appreciation I have for everyone who supports the studio in so many ways.

Thank you all, and April's Open House date is posted on the web site and here in the forum, for April 22, including a mini-workshop by Adam Chilson, to give a taste of what he'll be presenting in his studio lighting workshop on May 1!

Had a great time. Still processing the night (heck, I'm still processing the last two months). Will continue to work on catching up.

It was another fun Open House at DM Gremlin! A big thanks to Wendy, Lisa, Emobi, MissQuinn and Lonny!

The body paint and setting with the street lamp made me think comic book, so here are a few examples of how I'm rolling with that idea.

Bryan and Erik, thank you so much as always, for posting some of these photos. Great shots and so much fun to see them! Erik, definitely got the comic book look going on there. I can see our models right there on the pages, and all we need now are some big dialog and 'CRASH, POW!' bubbles! Very Happy

Brooke, these are so fantastic. Thank you! I love the shot of Miss Quinn with the point of the blade in her belly button. And the candid of her and Adam looking downward toward... hehe, something, we're not sure WHAT they're lookin' at 'down there!'
