Street Dance/ Pop Inspiration

My next shoot will be based on 'street dance'. The style of this shoot will be 'pop' like and quite colourful. Here are some references that have helped me with some inspiration in this development: 

This image was found on the internet under street dance illustration on www.weheartit.com 

The image gives off vibrant colours, strokes of movement, energy and attitude. I would like my shoot to have the same traits. 

This image is from Vouge nippon - Playing with colour 2013. 

The pop like composition of the image has inspired me with ideas for my shoot. I would like to include nail art into my shots as I think it really does complete a look and tie the whole theme together if you get the design right. 

I aim to create a look that involves electric blues, yellows, greens and oranges. These colours mixed together I think portrays a quite youthful, urban mix and could work with designing a make up look along with nail art. 

I have managed to team up with a nail technician named Suzan Kerlo as she specialises in nail art and design. I sent these mood boards to her to explain the overall idea for my shoot to see if she could perhaps come up with a set of nails to use for street dance theme: 

This board is expresses some of the bold eye make up designs I could draw from for my photo shoot. Also a few hair designs that could work in keeping with the theme, quite contemporary and modern hair styles. 

This mood board shows more of the styling I would like to incorporate into my images. Keeping the vibrant pallet in make-up and styling and assessing poses I could use to shoot the model with high attitude and clean structure. 

Nail Design by Suzan Kerlo: 

This nail art compliments my ideas for the shoot, they give an urban, bright, structured feel. The camouflage effect can be related to street dance as a lot of costume which is camouflage is used within street dance and hip hop performances. 

I would like to see these nails involved in my shoot and look forward to shooting this look and seeing the end result! 

Wish me luck!
