General Images for Inspiration SOME INITIAL IDEAS

• Make a Zoetrope, but use black & white/digital portrait photos where the facial expressions change. Consider it as an animation. Look at the work of Eduardo Muybridge

• Photograph someone through a series of textured glass windows focusing on distortion

• Distort the face by playing with reflections, shadows and mirrors to create an optical illusion.

• Consider how you can create a anonymous portrait - try printing a portrait but placing drawn scribbles on acetate over your projection on top of your photographic paper. Look at the work of Arnulf Rainer.

• Using props and different costumes, transform a person. Stick to a simple background. Look at the work of David LaChapelle
