Looking for models & Photographers of Color
We need Photographers with images that represent the hood. We need Hip hop driven images of all cultures. Preferably people of color, ie, Black, latino, Asian, Indian, Polynesian, etc. The Websites name is elitestockmedia.com. Submit images and get paid through residual income. Both models and photographers needed!! Needed themes are, Christmas, Valentines, Thanksgiving, Halloween, Mothers day, Fathers day, Communion, going to church, Going to school, different occupations, etc. (I think you get the idea), we need images that show that "WE" do the same things that everyone else does...plus more!! Just stop through and sign up for updates and to get an idea of what the site is all about. www.elitestockmedia.com
I found a great online resource for artists the other day. It's called Music Industry Online. They have everything you will need to market yourself and do business like a professional.
Every artist needs to master their craft. This takes a life time. Once your ability and finished materials are ready to be displayed to the public(if you choose to be a commercial artist), you need the right tools to get you where you want to be.
I've struggled at times with the proper tools. I used to call secretary's at labels, front desk people, anyone I could get on the phone and lie through my teeth to get A&R directories and who's looking lists. That's a whole different skill set lol.
Todays artists are fortunate enough to have all the tools they will need to succeed at their finger tips. The site I find most helpful is, http://www.musicindustryonline.com/ . I do not normally plug sites but I believe this can help and save a ton of time. They have lists for everything. Contracts. Licensing info. All in one place. Def check it out. You'll find everything you need. They'll even help you get a record deal through their online submission form.
