rococo-esque tabloid story

nod to marie antoinette's story

embodying the idea of female "hysteria"

# data[].attributes.body
inspo for scene 1, like the soft and gentle energy (will slowly transition into some more intense poses)

# data[].attributes.body
the project is a 5-6 page spread designed in a manner that adds a vintage touch to a page 6-esque tabloid story. the story is "marie antoinette suspected of murdering her husband" and we want the mood of the shots to slowly transition from soft/innocent to gory/violent, embodying marie antoinette's own transition from a child bride to historical "villain." we want to create an opportunity for design and writing to take center stage, with the writing as a poignant social commentary on the way female "hysteria" has been represented and perceived throughout history. here is a general structure we have in mind:

scene 1: marie in bed, sad and suffering

scene 2: marie in the bathtub, contemplating

scene 3: boudoir shot (with several women), getting ready, plotting and gossiping

scene 4: marie's hand around a man's throat, bloody, gory (implying murder)

scene 5: mugshot

The pain of women turns them into kittens and rabbits and sunsets and sordid red satin goddesses, pales them and bloodies them and starves them, delivers them to death camps and sends locks of their hair to the stars. Men put them on trains and under them. Violence turns them celestial. Age turns them old. We can’t look away. We can’t stop imagining new ways for them to hurt.

directors: abby chee & navya agarwal

photographer: tyler newman

since this is a relatively long project, we want to create an opportunity for several new writers, designers, stylists, and photographers to participate! we will lead the styling, setup, and storyline, but we would love to be assigned 2-3 members from each team to take the lead on various scenes, so that they have the opportunity to take on a leadership role within a project.

for the killing scene: we want something like this where the man is semi-visible, emphasis on marie, a bit gruesome and vulgar

not a big fan of the lighting, but really like the poses and this layout of 3 stacked images

inspo for scene 1: love the pose and angle

# data[].attributes.body
bathtub shot angle, we want to disperse objects around (but more maximalist)

scene 2 inspo: we like the angle, but want to go for a more maximalist and messy vibe (makeup stains running, etc)

candid off guard shots, want to feature side characters with cropped faces (emphasis on the main model)
