ALSO

I wanted to put this in a seperate entry so it wouldn't get lost in work crap.

I've been thinking about this for awhile and I kind of want to do some sort of photo project thing. Basically what's been floating around in my mind is buying disposable cameras and mailing them off to people who feel like participating. When they get them, they take pictures (of whatever they want; themselves, their families, their houses, towns, pets, friends...whatever, the sky's the limit) and then mail the cameras back to me. After getting them, I'll get the film developed and then take the pictures I like and make some sort of scrapbook out of it (you can either request that the photos be sent back to you or I'll just dispose of them). Once the scrapbook is complete, I'll see about somehow making copies of it to mail to all of the participants. Or something.

It's a really rough idea of what I have in mind and obviously it will require quite a bit of financing (cameras, developing the film, making some sort of book out of all the pictures together) so I'll need to think on it more (maybe having everyone by their own disposable cameras and sending them to me or taking photos with a digital if they have one), but I really think it would be awesome to do something like this. And it wouldn't even have to be just for my own friends list, anybody could do it. It would be sort of like an LJ photo project for anyone who wants to participate.

But yeah. Would anyone even be interested in doing/seeing something like that?

Sounds like a pretty interesting idea.

This sounds like a really cool idea! Would this be a digital scrapbook or one that is a hard copy? If you need any help I'd be glad to help!

I would be SO up for that! :D I would absolutely LOVE to be a part of that. Do you think it would be soon? Because pictures of me and Jillian won't be happening between May 23rd and August 22nd since we'll each be going to separate states for Summer Break ): and she and I do love camwhoring together.

But no matter when, I would still totally be up for doing it :D I love taking pictures, no matter what it's of. And...y'know what, I'll probably just buy a disposable camera over Summer and mail it to you anyway. Idaho has some of the prettiest sunsets that no one should miss.

yes! but i also think that it's probably best if we print the pictures ourselves and mail them.

This idea's really neat ^_^!

Although, if you wanted to cut expenses... maybe just get a list of people to sign up to take pictures with their own digital cameras. And you can post the pictures online...

Maybe for each week, give everyone a theme? And post everyone's pictures in a group post? There could be deadlines and shit like that XD. Just turn it into an LJ comm, haha XD. Then everyone could comment on everyone else's photos, and it could turn into an extended thing that lasted as long as you wanted it to.

Otherwise, I can't imagine how much money you'd spend, when perhaps people would be more likely to see it on an LJ comm >.>;. Do what you want to, though! If you want a Japan perspective, I'm down for that XD.
