Al-Jazeera is doing a 10-12 minute minute documentary for a show called "Moraselo Jazeera" - "Al-Jazeera's Correspondants Show".
The topic of this documentary is "Tattoo Culture". We are looking for hardcore tattoo enthusiasts. Individuals with full body tattoos or people who have full sleeves etc...
* We want to be able to follow one or two people and have them talk to us about their tattoos, their influences, what it means to them, what they think it means to their culture, lifestyle etc. We would like to interview them as well as follow them for a "day in the life of..."
* It would be ideal if we could film them getting a new tattoo or new addition to their body.
* We also want to get a band (preferrably rock /punk or goth) to talk to us about their tattoos and film them performing.
* We are also looking for Tattoo Historians or Experts or people who or are extremely knowledgeable in that field.
* Interviews will be conducted in New York in January 2006. (depends on availability)
* While there is no payment for these interviews, you will receive a VHS copy of the show when it airs. Al-Jazeera TV is broadcast to over 50 million people all over the world on Sattellite.
