Please be ready, with your groups, to create a contemporary vanitas still life in class.
Group duties:
Group A (Mary, Alex Chi) Still Life object & prop resourcing and setup
Group B (Brian, Holly, Amy) Camera work, file processing and printing
Group C (Dana, Shonna, Raven) Lighting design and effects
The still life should be arranged and lit in a traditional vanitas style, but with a contemporary twist. A suggestion: carefully select a blend of traditional and contemporary symbolic objects to build the still life. How can it ring as both "old" and "new" at the same time? Use examples of traditional vanitas to inform design, composition, lighting, camera placement. Further, how can you invoke the idea of a painting with a camera image?
