Cartoon Portrait
This project was quite the challenge. The ideas that I had come up with from the start could not be accommodated with the proper background images. So it became difficult to shuffle through other ideas that seemed just as good. What I ended up with is a vertigo inducing photograph as my background layer, then a carefully positioned photo of me standing on a steel beam that hangs over a skyscraper. The cartoon that I chose to use is Jerry from Tom and Jerry. I am holding Jerry out over the edge of the building with my fingers. Jerry's frightened expression definitely adds to the portrait. Overall I would say this isn't my best work but it is decent. The interaction isn't to great, but that's mostly because there isn't much you can do with a mouse. However the photograph of me was carfully thought out. I had a buddy stand 15 ft away and I also had him kneel so I could create the correct angle/position in the background. It turned out great.
