Design Assignment: Wait, Where’d That Guy Come From?

Posted by
|

The assignment was to photoshop someone or something into a photo that wasn’t supposed to be there.  This was actually more difficult than I predicted.  I wanted to do something creepy (e.g. the alien from the movie Signs, or Gollum).  I did two, so it’s kind of a mini series of creatures that my friends and I encounter, but are totally unaware of, during a walk through Richmond.  

In the first picture, I put the alien from signs in the background.  In picture 2 I added Gollum to the background, and in the last picture, I added Alien in the foreground.  I chose the photographs from Richmond, because the expressions of all the people in the photos seemed very oblivious.  The story is of these girls walking around exploring Richmond (brunch, a walk to Belle Isle, etc.) totally unaware of the dangerous creatures in their environment.

This assignment is worth 3 stars.
