They Won’t Stay Dead!

Working onsubmissions for a grindhouse style poster show, this was a practice run used to re-familiarize myself with the style. Additionally, I will be producing a number of these for my own showing sometime in the future.

I’m really excited with how this turned out, spent a lot of time on it and I think it shows. Hair light, light to her front left, and rim light behind. Bought a prom dress from a consignment store, and a gallon o’ blood from Party City. I was asked to do the flyer for Goth Prom, and I believe this works – jR

This shot was made with 2 800w Alien Bees, white backdrop (!!!), and absolutely no blood. I decided to go on a photoshop adventure and try something new, and I’m happy with where I ended. I used the lasso tool to create the shape of blood, variations for tone and color, sharpening tool for texture, amongst other methods, and lots of burning, dodging, history brush-ing and layering :] -jR
