Project #1 - "Light Bulb"
go back to the home page
"light bulb" demonstrates the uncanny by having fun with optical illusions. i find optical illusions to be most uncanny because of their appearance of being real. photographing this stop-motion short was incredibly difficult, because in order to sell the illusion of myself being trapped inside of a computer, i had to have the camera set in incredibly precise angles. note how the hair line, the lamp body, and the
arm lines all match to the person acting behind the computer... arduous, but the result was uncanny!
