The Lowdown

When: 9/20/2010 - 9/1/2011
Where: Australia Wide
Costs: Free!

What’s involved?

So! ReachOut wants you to draw a lovely little picture that represents you and shows three positive things about your body. Check out the video to see some that other young people have done:



So send in your videos, here are the specs we need:

  • 10 seconds for each shot
  • A close up of your drawing so we can see your lovely face
  • A medium shot of you holding your picture
  • A recording of you saying the three positive things about yourself
Then, send this in to video@inspire.org.au in the subject line write: BODY IMAGE VIDEO.

You can also send ReachOut a photo for our ReachOut.com flickr group. Please take one photo of your drawing and one photo of you holding your drawing. Also write three positive things about your body. Then send this to
video@inspire.org.au in the subject line write: BODY IMAGE PIC.

Why should people do this?

ReachOut wants this to be an ongoing project for a year, that will eventually be a great archive of positive body image stories and images. In a years time you can look back on it and think WOW, how cool is that you helped make an impact on body image issues in Australia!
