TOOL ACADEMY – Class of 10′
The prestigious academy is currently enrolling a limited number of “select” attendees.
Enrollment into the Academy will be by secret female recommendation only: we are
bound together by our word and secrecy in a sorority of sisterhood.
Ladies, are you sick and tired of a boyfriend or husband who just won’t grow
up? Are you fed up with a man who doesn’t give you what you deserve?
They are “TOOLS”: a new generation of preening, self-satisfied men who feel
the greatest gift they can bestow upon on a woman is themselves. The
irony is, they are the worst partners EVER! Yet we still love them,
stay with them, and even marry them! They’re late to pick you up.
They spend more on their spray-on tan than on an anniversary gift.
They’re selfish lovers. They won’t think twice about hitting on your best friend.
These eternal frat boys put themselves first, their posse second and you last.
These self-obsessed bad boys need help. They just don’t know it yet. But you
do. And so do we! Tool Academy was built with you in mind! Don’t tell
them… tell us! Now’s your chance to make Mr. Right!
Apply now at www.toolacademycasting.com
We are secretly taking America’s worst boyfriends and husbands and turning them into Mr. Right. Help us help you!
VH1, 495 Productions and Doron Ofir Casting is seeking fed-up, frustrated
girlfriends, who are above the age of 21 and who appear younger than
30, and who have boyfriends or husbands who need the transformation in
order to save their relationship – and win 100 grand.
Are you ready for a change? Tell us why!

ABOUT THE SHOW

Bad just got good on Oxygen with the third season of the hit reality series from the producers of The Real World.
This season takes bad behavior to the next level with a cast of young
women who are independent, spirited, and endlessly entertaining.
Bad Girls Club brings seven self-proclaimed “bad girls” together
in a beautiful Los Angeles mansion, and drama reigns supreme. All the
girls, ranging in age from 21 to 25, have a unique story, point of view
and attitude — as well as some kind of personal issue that makes them
far from perfect. Will living together help them move forward and turn
their lives around — or will chaos rule?

Celebrity Photographer D. Blanks Interview

Filed under All, Features, Industry Spotlight, Interview, Photoshoots, Tierra's Corner
Tierra:Where were you born?
D Blanks:Jackson, Mississippi
Tierra:Where do you live?
D. Blanks:Atlanta, Georgia
Tierra:When did you decide that this is what you want to do?
D. Blanks:In the 3rd Grade. I was introduced to photographer at a fairly young age during my tenure in Creative Arts School. I became attached to it because of the instant gratification. I have a background in Illustraion and with this, portraits take 20-30 hrs where as a photo is instant.
Tierra: Are there any celebrities that you’ve worked with?
D.Blanks: Jennifer Hudson, Ciara, Beyonce, Akon, Estelle, Eva Pigford, Rockmond Dunbar, Angela Bassett, Faith Evans and more, just to name a few LOL


Tierra:Which Celebrities fit your style, and that you would want to work with?
D. Blanks: Any Celebrity who is fashion forward and is driven by creativity.
Tierra:Which celebrity could put on anything and look good? (male or female)
D. Blanks: Eva Pigford hands down! Eva is a traditional model. Any great model can put on anything and make it look good, as she does so effortlessly.
Tierra:What’s the best thing about working with a new model?

D.Blanks: The new model is a blank canvas in a sense and takes good direction while allowing room for personal growth and development.
Tierra: What’s the worst thing about shooting a new model?
D. Blanks: Lack of experience, knowledge and posing in front of the camera, but not in all cases.
Tierra: Do you work better with gels, lights or natural light?
D. Blanks: I’m confident enough in my craft to say that I feel as though I work well with all. It is in my experience that any good photographer can work well with all lighting scenarios and environments.
Tierra: Do you enjoy shooting by the water?
D. Blanks: Yes…
Tierra: Do you make your own sets or you enjoy going on location?
D. Blanks: Depending upon the project, yes. It keeps the concept fresh and creative. I enjoy locations as well because they sometimes present challenges and provide refreshing, new environments.
Tierra: What is some advice that you can give to a future male/female model?
D. Blanks: Study your craft, own it, profect it and continued to be a work in progress.
Tierra: If there is one celebrity who you could shoot who would it be?
D. Blanks: Angelina Jolie
Tierra: If there was one magazine that you could shoot for who would that be?
D. Blanks: Vogue
Tierra: What do you hate most when it comes to a photoshoot?
D.Blanks: The delay. Sometimes all of the componets (hair, make-up, wardrobe) can prove to be extremely intollerable as far as the time length because I shoot rather quickly.
Tierra: What type of atmosphere do you like to work in? (a lot of people on set,
music, drinks, etc.)
D. Blanks: I like being around creative and positve people (my team), lots of music and great clients with positive attitudes who are willing to take direction and be creative.
Tierra: Any projects coming up that we should know about?
D Blanks: My Alter-Ego Pictorial book. Also, I’m working on something BIG that everyone will just have to stay tuned for.
