Ich will, ich will, ich will ... das auf 250 Stück limitierte Buch WILD THINGS: COACD Go Sees 2000 - 2010 by Douglas Perrett. DER berühmte (wenn nicht sogar berühmteste) Casting-Director there is! Ich könnte ihm stundenlang zuhören, wenn er von seinen Entdeckungen und Casting Experiences erzählt ... aber hört und seht am besten selbst ...

Translation:

The book Wild Things: COACD Go Sees 2000 – 2010 showcases the private Polaroid collection of Douglas Perrett, founder and creative director of casting agency COACD. Taken between 2000 and 2010, the test shots by Perrett himself (and edited by Kathy Lo) feature some of the biggest names in modeling, along with Perrett’s first impressions of the girls – some of which aren’t as venerating as you might imagine compared to their successes now. The title of the book takes its name from the hastag Perrett used when uploading the Polaroids onto Twitter, which were a hit. The result is a collection of snapshots of young girls not yet sure of themselves and their place in the industry. (source: Oystermag)
