Specular Highlights

Based on the science that when we are in danger our minds go into a hyper focused state to try and get out of the situation. For this set I used the highlights to represent that focus bringing the attention to the danger as the assailant emerges from the shadows.

Fictional characters leave a lasting impact on children into adulthood through the emotions they instill when viewed, and in some cases can inspire people better than any real person or event can. This barrier between reality and fiction has me wondering if these characters would have the same impact if they were real, or if they can only make the impact they do if they remain fictional examples. So for this set of images I wanted to try and make these toys seem more like their fictional counterparts if they actually existed.

Social conflict begins when information is interpreted different ways, and when information that has the power to change a society is interpreted in different ways  the actions that follow can have lasting consequences. Weather those consequences end up being beneficial or detrimental on any scale of magnitude it all begins when a person sits down to absorb that information, and makes their judgement.
