alter ego


Reflection: For my alter ego photo i wasn't sure what i wanted to do. The objects in this photo that make the photo my alter ego are the fake knife, heels, and the tights. The picture is taken somewhat far away so that i could be able to paste one photo onto another. The knife gives the feel for the element of design of a line. The photos are a bit blurry which was accidental but i made an effort to adjust it in photoshop. The pictures of myself are a bit dark and the background appears very bright. This photo was taken indoors. I tried to make myself look like the same person but a different personality. I feel with this photo i could have done a lot better but it took me a while to find the idea that i wanted. I did not have very much time to take photos either since the backgrounds had to match. Originally i wanted footsteps walking towards each other behind me making it seem as though i was approaching my alter ego. I feel as though i focused too much on making my picture work rather than just letting it flow together. And i think the audience would have understood my alter ego better if it was not in black in white,but if i would have done it in color it would have looked really fake.
