Decided to redo the assignment for submission as I realized that we are graded much on the quality of the photographs as well! I initially thought only the creative element, composition and angle would be graded as that was what we learnt during the week 4 lecture. But well, I had fun doing this again!
The series of photographs share the 'adventure' of the Cookie Monster, who escapes from his toy box to find his cookies (koko krunch here to be exact)!
I thought that taking pictures of still soft toy to tell the story is going to be relatively easier as they are easier to manipulate, I was proven so wrong! Faced so much difficulty along the way to inject life, actions and emotions into the lifeless creature!
The Cookie Monster soft toy was in fact inflexible and standing stiff! So, I had to explore angles and various perspectives to give the illusion that he is walking, climbing, bending and even hugging the box of cookie in the end when it was in fact all along in its upright position with hands wide spread.
Nonetheless, I enjoyed the sense of satisfaction after that though :D
