Photography & Inspiration

I want to create a surrealistic dream-like representation for my final digital art works. After viewing August Bradley's photography I was inspired to take photos which initially began with a surrealistic atmosphere and tell a story to the viewer.

August Bradley -

I asked my friend, Stevie to be the model for my photo shoot and chose to use a near-by park as the location, where I had once came across this dark, intertwined and eerie tree.
Here is one image taken from the shoot, which I have edited in various ways using Photoshop.


After editing these shots I thought about how I could incorporate them into one work as I really liked the different effects and the old fashioned, haunting look which each captured. I experimented using Windows Movie Maker and put them together to create this short picture.



I want to create a longer and more in depth movie like this for one of my final works. I am also planning on creating a sonic soundscape to incorporate with this work to create visual and audible digital art.
