Hello everyone!
I want to thanks @juliakponsford and @vachemorte, (the judge too) as always for bringing this contest.
“Maybe I should have killed four, five hundred people. Then I would have felt better. Then I would have felt like I really offered society something.” - Charles Manson
First of all I didn't do this by myself, I had the help of two more person (my friends): @lerb and @wallskhan.
PROCESS:
For the blood we made a strange mix of substances. We used:
- Soy Sauce: For the dark effect that the blood has
- Maple Syrup: To give a dense or thick effect. Because the blood is not only liquid.
- Ketchup: For the red appearance of the blood
Here you can see a photo of the "makeup" of the sword or katana:
An here you can see the result of the "blood" that we made:
"I like killing people because it is so much fun. It is more fun than killing wild game in the forest because man is the most dangerous animal of them all." - Zodiac Killer
And by the way, here is a little bit of "blood":
We needed to give the "murderer" an aspect of evil, so we used a brown leather jacket with cotton in the neck of it.
This took like 2 hours to take the photo. We used @lerb as model for the photo. We took around 25 photos to then select the perfect ones. There is one, (that is the entry) and there are two more that I want to put because I really liked them.
This is like a vintage photo, I wanted to give it a classy effect:
And this is more like a modern one:
And here is the final photo that we used as entry:
“You know … clowns can get away with murder.” - John Wayne Gacy
DETAILS:
- Special Effects (FX): @wallskhan - Thanks for that sauce
- Model: @lerb
- Photographer: Myself (@richhz06)
Smartphone and Adobe After Effects were used.
Each person participated in their best field. I want to thanks @lerb and @wallskhan for helping me doing this photo and making this possible.
