I unsuccessfully attempted to Crowd-Fund Issue 04 of
Take last year but thought I'd give it another shot. Why? You may ask. Well it's because I believe that this is a magazine that should continue to be published. I feel that the photographers and their work need to have a voice in an increasingly commercial, fake world. I want to continue to showcase raw, gritty work from talented documentary photographers who leave me in awe of their courage and their skill. I want Take Issue 04 to be published.
However Take is a one man show and unfortunately money doesn't grow on trees. I also have an aversion to advertising which is why Take does not include any and also why you will receive a publication that is, from front to back cover, all content, no ads. So rather than paying for other magazines which are generally set up to be a brand catalogue with maybe 50-60% real content, you get 100% of awesome! :)
If successfully funded this issue will be co-edited by the amazing members of the Oculi group (
www.oculi.com.au) which includes many of Australia's top documentary photographers. I already have the Oculi members list of photographers to include (it's amazing) and now we just need the cash for printing.
Please check the Rewards and grab yourself a copy of the issue. I am very excited about producing a new issue of Take and would love to have your support.
Thanks!
