Social responsibility scenario
Imagine you're a model and you're only 18 years old and you've only done 1 shoot previously. You land a job with a photographer and you're going to be working on a beach modelling for most of the day in the hot sun with a male photographer and his usual 4 male assistants.
Put yourself in the models position, what sort of things would you hope the photographer would have in place to make your experience on the day pleasant, comfortable and non-threatening in anyway? A photographer in this situation has a social responsibility to the young female model. Explain what the photographer might do to enable this.
Some clues can be found in Maslow's hierarchy of needs...
It might be useful to imagine this scenario played out on a Beach locally - Southend or Chalkwell. How would you feel about this shoot, what would you expect the photographer to have put in place to make your day on the set a good experience.
