Shroble_mythmetaphor

=Mythology and Visual Metaphor Proposal = CONCEPT: What is your idea for mythology and/or metaphor, how will you interpret the idea of a visual metaphor and a myth? My concept for the mythology project is to create a picture based on the myth, "Cupid". SUBJECT: What sorts of images will you need to shoot to create your idea? What will it involve? places, people, costumes, sets, nature, lighting? I will need a main character to portray the role of cupid, a background to give off more of a greek mythology look, like the image was taken in the sky, and several pictures to portray as wings. REASONING: Why do you wish to do this idea? What will you learn from it? How is it interesting to you? When I was younger cupid was always brought up in TV shows and movies about love and I never heard any stories and thought it would be a fun idea to learn more about him while doing this project. Photoshop will help me learn how to equally blend pictures together to make them look more realistic. FACTS: What is the myth/metaphor that you are basing your idea on? Explain it's history and any other pertinent facts regarding the myth/metaphor that will help us understand your idea. I am basing my myth on "Cupid" who is the greek god of love.
