Step #1: The Look
First you need to make sure you have a group of three to five incredibly hot yet rugged guys. If in the case you are a band with a chick lead singer, make sure she has a ridiculous hair color, or is tougher than nails, in a, "Hey look at me, I'm sexy, but if you get too close I'll bite your head off" kinda way.
Step #2: The Look....again
Now that you have you're band members, you need a look. The best way to go about this step is to go to the most vintage thrift shop or indie clothing store. Buy all matching outfits. Now by matching we don't mean four black marching band coats, however this look has and will always work again and again. More so, buy a bunch of jackets, striped shirts, leather jackets, sun glasses too big for anyone's head, and lastly, boots. And also it's good to color coordinate. I mean, who doesn't LOVE matching outfits? Not you.
Step #3: The Look....and hold
Ok, this is the most important of all the steps. You need to start practicing right now. Go to the mirror. Are you there? Perfect. Look at yourself and make a face that says, I am the coolest person ever. Say to yourself, I am sexy, but I am WAY serious about music. Say to yourself, I rock harder than anyone, but I'm also love-able. Great, now practice that for about 6 hours a day, and in a week you'll have it down, and you can move on to step 4.
Step #4: The Location
Did you have a great week of getting the "Look" down? Fantastic, now you're ready to find a location. Here are a list of places perfect for what you're going for.
Alleyways
Rooftops with city views
Open fields
Industrial areas
Anything brick
Anything artsy that says, we are way more indie than you.
Those are just a few, but get creative, maybe you should take one in you're parents living room, I mean it's right there.
Step #5: The Shoot
The shoot is the least important of the steps, but it's necessary. We all know how much you enjoyed growing out some facial hair, and not washing your hair for a few days. And it's obvious you loved going to the thrift stores and looking like a band who shops together. Also don't forget that you've become a pro at making sexy faces, we all know how much thought you've put into quiting this whole "band" thing and starting a career as a model, but.....it's time to do this shoot. So, go to your location with a digital camera, prop it up and put the timer on. Everybody hold that face..........and flash.
Done. You can photoshop anything you don't like.
Hope this was helpful to all.
