Looking for open-minded models to be on set for a conceptual/artistic music video. We would prefer the models to wear all black with body suits, leotards, or any other clothing to emphasize the human body. This shoot is not meant to objectify women, all scenes will be fully clothed, and lead by a female music video director. This is an unpaid position but credit will be given at the end of the final product. 

We would like to shoot abstract scenes of female models with a primary focus on facial features, hands, and arms against a dark background illuminated by neon lighting. There are scenes where oil, and body paint may be used.There are also additional scenes where full-body silhouettes will be needed for dancing and posing. The whole concept of the story is that the subject of the story (the artist who created the song Madspill) is surrounded by different females to symbolize him avoiding falling in love. He has his fun, but at the end of the video he realizes he's still alone at the end of the day and only craves one specific girl.

Read how this one soldier, who gave his very soul to everyone around him, is now rejected by those around him and the total devastation of a broken heart for life.

Diaries of a Soldier is a gripping true story told through the eyes of a soldier as he lived his life before, during, and after the military, while he served his country proudly. This is not just any ordinary story of a person’s life. It is a story of how one man came to grips with his demons inside, faced them by learning how to recognize them, and learned from the mistakes of others, as well as his own. This true and factual story tells the graphic details of struggles in his everyday life, and in intimate details of his daily trials and tribulations as he goes through life as a soldier. This professional soldier tells you how he took the worst of any situation and made it work to his advantage, turning everything into a vast array of knowledge that he used to train thousands of soldiers; inspiring them to strive hard in their lives and stay alive in this cruel world.

In combat, he finds a way to show you all how he dealt with his past and present. Through his own psychological teachings, he works through the pain of life from the past and present. His life teachings have brought amends to thousands of other soldiers and civilians like himself, who suffer from similar letdowns throughout life. This soldier has accomplished many things in his life, with little or no rewards at all in return, yet he finds the courage to give even more of himself, showing that he has the strength to get up by himself and stand on his own two feet. By learning to walk again, if only by himself, he shows the strength in self-healing, while still working through the pain of life’s calamity.

Having given his all, this soldier has shown what sacrifice is and how he dealt with it all in the simplest of ways. Self-initiative and hard work helped heal him, as well as thousands of his fellow soldiers as he traveled throughout the world. Through self-psychological mind manipulation and proper word placement in one's mind, his missions in life were completed one after the other, and he let no one ever defeat him inside.

Follow the sequence of events through this trilogy of non-fiction novels. Diaries of a Soldier, Bucket Head, and Cannibal Boy are events written to help those understand just one way of thinking. Diaries of a Soldier will take you through the pains of life. Bucket Head will haunt you with reality, and Cannibal Boy will drop you like a hot rock as you hear the rage inside. With the understanding of all three stories, you will be able to stand up on your own two feet from now on, without the help of so-called doctors and red-tape treatments. Why wait to be treated when you can do it on your own?
