Animation - Imagined Lives

In todays seminar we looked into images telling a story. We were given a series of images, and then had to describe what kind of life the person in the picture would lead. 

  • Mona Lisa, Da Vinci - Moustache and beard, L.H.O.O.Q, Bidlo: Making fun of herself, bearded lady who travels with the circus.
  • She likes to go to festivals. Passion for accessories. 
  • Cannot breath 
  • Loves pizza. Lucian Freud, social worker. 
  • 17-19 years old. Holding an Ermin. Da Vinci. She was married to a powerful man. 

Each image contained symbolic elements, giving an impression of the time the image was captured. A picture is worth a thousand words, this task was the perfect example to show that.

This task can be used throughout my book cover project, I would like my imagery to tell a story and interest the audience. I want it to communicate a clear message as soon as people lay there eyes on it.
