Click.
It all starts with a click. Head to any of our social media pages or scroll through our website and click on something, anything, that interests you. We have posts and projects ranging from disciplines of all kind. Can’t find what you’re looking for?
Start with a search.
-
Connect.
Once you’ve chosen a project based off of a cover photo or the title, find what it is that made you connect to the piece. This could be the photography, makeup, wardrobe, etc. Once you’ve found what pulled you in, it’s time to reach out to the creative that made it happen.
-
Contact.
This is the fun part. After finding the creative you’d like to work with, contact them with an idea you want to collaborate on. That crazy photoshoot idea you had? Reach out to their email or social media to discuss turning that idea into reality.
Ideas work at Melanin.
