| For my photomontage project, I have decided to do a piece
about, essentially, the concept of humanity's dual nature. The montage
itself will contain at least three main elements. The first will be a crowd
of people, scattered around the foreground of the montage, each of them
focusing on one of two figures at opposite sides of the montage. These two
figures, which will be more or less human in appearance, are the second
element. The same basic picture will be used for both figures, though
contrast editing will be used to create a light vs. dark effect between the
two. Along with the figures will be two sets of pictures that will reinforce
this effect. The third and final element will be the background of the
montage, which will be constructed of some sort of real world scene, color
and contrast edited in such a way that it seems real, yet at the same time
has a dreamlike quality to it. Taken as a whole, the montage will create the
image of a world somewhere between the conscious and subconscious mind,
where every person makes the choice between that which is good and that
which is bad in human nature. |
