Polaroid murder storyboard
A storyboard of Polaroid photographs that explore the power relationship between the characters played within horror movies. The images show the same character as both the dominant and overpowering villain and passive and tearful victim. The victim focuses her attention towards an unknown entity off camera that the viewer cannot see, whereas the villain concentrates her anger and destruction onto the camera and ultimately the viewer. The Polaroid photographs were added to my studio space for my peers to comment on. Comments about Polaroid murder storyboard: “I like the final Polaroid shot; it takes on the classic pose of the horror film victim that we are used to seeing.”
“The photo of you with the knife is my favourite because you look really convincing and scary!”
