Cool Set Ideas

What themes would make cool sets?

Beach Girl VS The Monster (Modeled after the 1965 film)
Reproducing a vintage magazine cover (like Wink, Titter or Flirt)
"How Novel" Vintage Typewriter, Shaggy Carpet...you get the idea
Red Light Special...Cliche Stripper but it would be h-o-t-t-

What themes would you guys like to see?

If anyone is near Newcastle, U.K., there's that missle launcher van advertising Lings cars on the motorway, good for a cold war style propaganda set.

The Angel of the North would fit into that nicely too, or a more general Industry/Metal theme, especially if shot at sunrise/sunset.

haha, I just went past that earlier in the week, glad it wasn't my imagination!

It's probably been done many times, but a masquerade type ball.. Labrynth style with a bunch of SGs.

Industrial waste set would be cool, like a post-apocalyptic ghetto.

I always liked the idea of a bank robber set with bags of money.

My vision was more like.. Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Abandoned steel mills and run-down factories are the closest thing to what's in my head. The color of rust and cold stone.. Kind of like Mad Max.

Getting warmer.

I have an excellent idea.

If you're going to shoot a set for SG, how about you shoot something that reflects some awesome aspect of your personality, instead of just doing a role-playing dress-up thing? Who are you? That's way more interesting to me than cute costumes or setups.

I believe there are a few who have sets that demonstrate who they are in one way or other. Who can tell but the creator of the image? I'm sure some relive moments past in their sets. It would be nice to see more.

When I was a member of the SG Hopefuls group (and no, I was never a Hopeful), I saw set after set of girls who were obviously trying to fill some idea of "sexy." They came off like they were playing dress-up and trying too hard to fit into some ideal of sexy they'd gotten from somewhere.

You could tell.

Expression often seems corrupted by competition. I bet if hopefuls were to express their personality like you said, there'd be alot more SGs.

Which brings me to a question that I'm sure is around here somewhere; Who chooses the set for the most part, the photographer or the model?

Yeah I haven't totally explored all of the sets...I'm sure there are a lot of ideas I like that have been done...Thanks for the leads
