4 months. 22 top Brazilian male models. 5 newcomers. 1 photographer. 1 stylist. 96 pages. 1,000 copies. And Models.com has a lot more.
Made In Brazil Magazine #1 will be available for purchase online starting Wednesday of next week, when we launch the webtsite for the project. We will ship overseas from Brazil as well, so that everyone will be able to get a copy.
A little more from me about the project after the jump.
We started working on the first issue of
the magazine by mid-December when most of the boys were in the country
for Christmas, and did not finish until early March when we finally
could get a day in São Paulo with some of the boys that were in our
initial list of boys we must shoot for the project.
I can't thank you guys enough for all the emails I have been receiving since last night when Models.com posted an exclusive preview of the first issue, which is entirely dedicated to Brazilian male models. I promise to write a very detailed post about the magazine, and what the project is going to be all about as soon as I have more time.
I also wanted to say thank you to my collaborators and very good friends Cristiano Madureira and Heleno Manoel for embarking on this crazy project, and to all the boys who took their time to pose for the first issue. Some of them got on a bus for over 6 hours to see us, while others spent a day in São Paulo in between going from Paris to New York just to make this happen. We love you (and your bookers too).
Expect to hear a lot more about it starting today.

Exciting, it looks great! I hope rates for delivery overseas are realistically priced and not US$40.00 like the BUTCH merchandise... Just wishful thinking and a heads up ;)

I'm so very happy for you! Without this blog I wouldn't have a clue what was going on back in Brasil. Please let me know if there is a place to sign-up for the magazine. I need a copy in NYC for my collection!

Can't wait to subscribe. If the magazine is half as fabulous as your website it will be worth it. Congratulations

This is really amazing! I will buy one, i hope you can send it to Boston. In case it is possible, I will buy a subscription.
You have a great taste, knowledge and instinct. Things that make a great editor.

Hi! Is this project going to be extended to an iPhone/iPad app magazine?!
Posted by: Andre | 04/29/2010 at 11:23 AM
The first one is probably going to be exclusively print, although we are launching a site next week. We may later also release an iPad version but with totally different content.

it's always exciting MIB when you come down into the crowd to shake hands
congratulations
the print magazine is super size, right? that's a smart editorial decision, a nice change of pace from tiny images on computer screens ** your next step should be a crossover into cinema **
I'm curious to see if the mag includes narrative text --
and what language is it written in?
