Is it nude when you are covered in mud?
Continuing with the: "Let's get it out of our systems" theme which is going on in the fourm. If you are joining us late, I am trying to ask every possible question about nude modeling that I can think of so we can move onto other topics on the forum. So here it is; I ask this question: Photographers are always trying to justify to a model when it is nude or not nude. To the point, there seem to be all kinds of artificial borderlines set to define when a photo taken of a model with no clothes on isn't really nude. So, if you take a nude model and completely cover the significan parts with mud, is that a nude photo? Mar 23 06 02:42 pm Link I'd call it "implied" like a wet T-shirt.....

I have a question too: If mud is considered nude then body paint would be nude as well. I call them artistic nudes.

Mar 23 06 02:53 pm Link I go for the monochromatic look. Heavy brown soil goes great with my skin tone. I'd have to see a picture of a model in mud to determine whethere I consider it modeling or not. If she's rolling around in a kiddie pool of mud with her best friend.....then no. Mar 23 06 02:56 pm Link I would not say truly nude. I know many models who would never do nude but will pose unclothed if covered in mud/body paint. Mar 23 06 02:59 pm Link Glamour Boulevard wrote: Then how much mud do you need to cross the line between "truly nude" and "not truly nude?" We are, of course, assuming that the model is truly nude beneath the mud. Mar 23 06 03:00 pm Link I have that shot , as soon as you gurus decide I will post it!

But if you go to a wide angle zoom at say F-11, it is definitely nude. Mar 23 06 04:09 pm Link Exactly my point  Mar 23 06 04:13 pm Link To me is nude. There are no clothes on is nude and thats it. If it's not clothed then its obviously has to be nude. I love these new topics. hahaha Lol Artistic nude Implied nude Nude mud nude paint nude They are all nudes why you think the word nude is in there Mar 23 06 04:15 pm Link Intensity wrote: So what is your point? I wish you wouldn't beat around the bush. Mar 23 06 04:17 pm Link Alan from Aavian Prod wrote: hahahaha beat around the bush. I don't think I can't be more direct. LoL ;-D Mar 23 06 04:19 pm Link That people try to soften they way they see nudes now days, no matter what is called they are still nudes.

Mar 23 06 04:25 pm Link Ok here it goes nudelogical scale: 1)Implied nude 2)Paint nude 3)Mud nude 4)Artistic nude 5)Nude 6)Porn Nude 7)sleezy nude 8)Webcam Nude 9)Camera phone nude Mar 23 06 04:39 pm Link Any non-sheer object between the model and the camera = not nude! Mar 23 06 04:40 pm Link Intensity wrote: Good, now at what point on the scale does it become a cardinal sin? Mar 23 06 04:43 pm Link Alan...in my line of work I am faced with a similar question and I have yet to get a consistant answer. I tell potential models...you have to be nude for me to paint you but whether you are nude or not after that is entirely up to you. Some consider paint to be covered, others don't...personally I don't care ...just pose and let's make some art! Mar 23 06 04:44 pm Link Yeah at least porn is done by a a profesional. Camera phone nude the model called her neighbor to do it. Mar 23 06 04:46 pm Link Alan from Aavian Prod wrote: To me is not a sin if they choose to do it is on them. But don't try to soften it out saying that is not nude. Mar 23 06 04:48 pm Link So where would this fall: A sleezy Implied nude with partial Paint and partial Mud shot with a camera phone while talking on your web cam?

Mar 23 06 04:54 pm Link A naked model covered with mud would be mude not nude Mar 23 06 04:54 pm Link Arca Imaging wrote: Should we start a Mude modeling site? Mar 23 06 04:54 pm Link Why would you cover a pefectly good model in mud? They don't come with cleaning instructions. Mar 23 06 04:57 pm Link Nerlande wrote: Washing it off with a hose is fun... especially on a hot day Mar 23 06 05:03 pm Link Okay we're talking about female models, but, even though I don't shoot men, it would be unfair not to include them in this mud discussion. If a man is covered in mud his important peice may still seem somewhat... umm... how do you say...present? And what if the man is standing or say...erect? Would he still be considered covered? And male or female, if the mud is dry and cracking, this would have to considered artistic because its like a mold right?

Mar 23 06 05:50 pm Link Is it a nude photo when you photoshop (you know, blur tool) so that the goodies are no longer visible?
