MODELS - ERIN CUMMINGS & RYAN LOCKE

Mario Testino: Modelo reveló que fotógrafo peruano era un "depredador sexual" Mario Testino está envuelto en un escándalo mediático luego que 13 modelos lo denunciaran por supuesto acoso sexual , en una publicación del diario The New York Times. Uno de los testimonios que más llamó la atención fue el del modelo de #Gucci, #RyanLocke, quien aseguró que el fotógrafo peruano era un "depredador sexual". Incluso, y tras esta confesión, Locke narró detalles del supuesto acoso del que habría sido víctima. Aseguró que durante el último día de una sesión fotográfica, Testino pidió a todos, salvo a él, que se vayan del estudio. "Cierra la puerta y le pone seguro. Entonces trepa a mi cama, se pone encima mío y me dice 'soy la chica, tu eres el chico'. Le dije algo como, 'mejor aléjate'. Le tiré la toalla, me puse mi ropa y me fui", reveló. A la explosiva acusación de Locke también se unen la del modelo Jason Fedele, la del asistente Roman Barrett y el testimonio del productor fotográfico Thomas Hargreave. ABOGADOS DE TESTINO CONTRA ACUSACIONES #TheNewYorkTimes se contactó con Lavely & Singer, bufete de abogados que representa a #MarioTestino e indicó que las partes acusadoras "no pueden considerarse fuentes confiables". Pusieron en tela de juicio, la declaración de Hugo Tillman, debido a su salud mental, y agregan que tras conversar con varios ex empleados de Testino, estos se mostraron "sorprendidos por las acusaciones" y que "no podían confirmar ninguna de estas declaraciones".

My scheduled meeting with Ryan Locke went ahead as planned on Monday. (14/9/15) I discussed my initial idea briefly and I'm almost certain that my initial idea will not be coming to fruition. However, I was advised that I could still display the sketches that I had done in my upcoming presentation as work that I did, but no longer has any significance. Ryan also recommended a book for me to purchase, which I have now ordered, along with five other books that I believe will aid me in my studies. I was advised by Ryan that the book he recommended to me, titled "The Thames & Hudson Dictionary of Graphic Design and Designers" is a must-have for any Graphic Designer, and although he did not say it himself, he did insinuate that this book would be my lifeline and possibly like a Bible to me and aid me in more than just my creating. During the meeting, Ryan talked me through the upcoming year and explained how things work this year, which made things so much clearer for me, and now I have much more of a clear idea of what I should be doing at this moment in time, although, I'm still not 100% clear, but I was informed that this is to be expected at this time. I now plan on putting some of Ryan's advice into action in some shape or form, which will consist of me purchasing two magazines and taking a note of all the logos that are contained inside. Along with this, I also plan to get more informed with typography and Adobe Illustrator (as my skills with Adobe Illustrator are very poor and somewhat non-existent), as both are a must in my chosen field and subject area.
