Behind every breakout moment of creative stardom, are countless other moments of shelving things to say “yes” to the thing gaining steam. Mannequin was a short-lived long-form interview project focusing on the creative alter-egos left behind before or after a big breakout moment, featuring Nate Richert (Sabrina the Teenage Witch), Randy Blythe (Lamb of God), Graeme Base (Animalia) and Tami Stronch (The Neverending Story).

Brief.
Spend intimate time with a selection of artists with a “creative blowup” moment of note, wilfully ignoring that moment, and steering things in the direction of their new pursuit or creative alter ego. Record the experience as a conversation and through image on a mixture of Kodak films up to 60 years out of date.
