What subjects would you like to see articles on? Or, what would you like to write about for this site? Post your ideas here, and maybe someone knowledgeable on the subject will oblige!

For instance, smaoc's postings made me think we should have an article aimed specifically at coulrophobic people, to try and demystify clowning for them in a non-threatening way. Maybe it could link to an article that shows how clowns put on makeup, with pictures for every step of the way. (This would also be useful for beginning clowns.)

Sounds like a great idea, Yer Highness!
I'm pretty sure that a video wuld have to be produced privately Do to copyright issues. Also be prepared for it to show up in some of the strangest places. perhaps instead of a video a serieves of photos would be a possibility. I think a video would be great, again my only concern is it getting link to some fruity site.
I though we had an article on coiulrophobia in the archives. I'm not sure tho.

Maybe the series of photos could also help in a newbie section where
we show the steps to putting on makeup, and maybe designing a face.
Same photos, two purposes.


We could have a series - Whiteface, Auguste and Tramp/Hobo...

who would you talk to about producing the videos? could a decent looking one be done by an amature? I know COAI did some videos on applying makeup. I don't know if the rights could be secured to use them. I would highly doubt it. What about a photo series instead?

Well, I wasn't thinking video at this point; that's beyond my capabilities. (Although if anyone with the necessary skills is interested enough...) Like you, I was also thinking photo series. Any volunteers?:)

I'm willing to do the tramp. However, I can't do it right now. I'm in the process of growing my goatee back for our band photo shoot.

Give me a few weeks, then we can do it!

I haven't been to the articles section for awhile so I don't remember, but was this ever done? It is still a good idea and now with You Tube the video idea is a distinct possibility.
