70.



     These are more from my stills project. I didn't know where I wanted to go with this character - all I knew was that I wanted her to be sad. I didn't know why I wanted her to be sad.

68.


     These are also from the movie stills project. This is girl is young and naive and she came to the city. She is trying to be a New Yorker and, seeing as she is not a New Yorker, likes to hang out in Times Square. This would her first time in Times Square is she is completely overwhelmed and excited by the crowd and the lights and the theatres. Anina and I decided that she was an actress who comes to the city with big dreams - changing her name from Susan to Holly. Her youth and ignorance of 'the real world' will soon be a problem but in this scene she is just happy to be in Times Square.

     These are from my movie still project. This character was one that thought she lived in the past in a cliche type of way. The mini story is basically that she get's all dressed up, as if she was in the 1950's with nowhere to go. She smokes because they did back then. She wears the dress because they did back then. Everything she does is because that's what they did back then, yet, seeing as she was not born yet,  she does not really know what they did back then. I love the shoes Carmela has, they are from the 1930's and I love that she wore them, it's like the girl doesn't know what shoes are from when and put together a completely inaccurate outfit. She is bored, dumb and a little bit insane. 
     I said that this girl is very Baby Jane in that she is dreaming, and believing, that she lives in time that it is impossible for her to live in.

      These are from a project I'm doing based on the aesthetic of movie stills. It's still kind of a mess but this is a 'scene' where nothing happens any way, more an introduction to the character. Eventually, I will be accompanying them with text but right now they're very disjointed. 
     I broke my cardinal rule of projects: I usually don't put pictures up from a project until it is completed but I am going to do that with this project.
