PROJECT ANNOUNCEMENT: BROWN SKIN IN AUTUMN™!

October 25, 2024  /  William Burrell Philpot IV

Black and Brown: Beauty, Transition and Complexity. We are Autumn!

Sample Concept Image developed via Midjourney Ai Art Generator.

Project Proposal:

This shoot is about celebrating Black and Brown identities in harmony with the beauty, transition, and complexity of autumn—a season of change and transformation. It reflects how identity is not static but ever-evolving, much like the seasons. Through this shoot, the aim is not only to highlight physical beauty but to convey the richness, diversity, and strength inherent within Black and Brown communities.

Creative Direction: The Black as Origin—Brown Skin in Autumn

"Within the Black, all things—good and bad, light and dark—exist. Creation begins where others see void."

Concept:

This project will explore the idea that just as autumn signifies transition, the concept of “The Black” represents both the unknown and the origin of all things. In this shoot, the changing landscape of autumn becomes a metaphor for the unseen depths within each person—layers of history, complexity, and identity that are both hidden and emerging. Through photography, we will showcase Black and Brown people as they exist not only in the world but within themselves, holding all possibilities: strength and vulnerability, tradition and innovation, presence and mystery.

This shoot is about reclamation. It’s about finding beauty in spaces of change and making visible the layers of identity that are often misunderstood or unseen.

Mood and Atmosphere:

The mood will balance both introspection and expression. The settings will reflect the layered nature of autumn—moments of stillness alongside movement, quiet reflection in shadowed spaces, and bold expression in bursts of light. The shoot should evoke feelings of calm, mystery, and transformation, capturing both who the subjects are now and who they are becoming.

Visual Tone:

Warm autumnal hues (rust, amber, ochre) combined with deeper tones (charcoal, mahogany, deep green). Contrast between light and shadow.

Vibe:

Thoughtful, layered, soulful. A blend of natural ease and intentional styling.

The Brown Skin in Autumn shoot is not just a celebration of seasonal beauty but a visual exploration of identity in transition. Inspired by the philosophy that within darkness reside all possibilities, the project embraces both the known and the unknown aspects of identity. It celebrates the beauty of Black and Brown people not just as they are today but as they are becoming—grounded in legacy, moving toward transformation, and empowered by the freedom to define their own stories.

Date: TBA - Location: TBA (Montgomery County, MD)

FROM "F V K ™" TO "OH-FVK!™"

CULTIVATING A NEW SUBSIDIARY PROJECT PLAN FOR THIS PROJECT; THE BLACK BEAUTY EXPERIENCE!

ART - DESIGN - PHOTOGRAPHY - BUSINESS - Ai - PROJECTS

We’re updating the F V K ™ to include the showcase and review of Beauty of Black Women. We believe that it has gotten lost—the idea and image of Black Women—in media and other spaces where Black Women like so many others have been pushed down in favor of other Ethnicities and Cultures. Our goal is to continue to showcase Beauty as well as the Sexiness and Sensual Allure of Black Women but with a specific targeting of Black and Brown Skin.While we show appreciation and respect to some others already within the limelight of public view, we’re also looking to showcase and appreciate others more local to our communities within the DC Area.

ADS for this project will be developed and posted to Craiglist.com and other associated sites soon.
