Vega-MythMetaphor

The mythological creature that will be presented in this visual is Khione, the goddess of snow. The metaphor that will be interpreted in the visual is “Her hair is a dark night”--since Khione is the goddess of snow. In order to compose this visual, there will be a lot of items needed. First of all, every picture that will be taken will need to be done outside, therefore done with natural lighting. Items involved in order to create this would be: snow, a girl, and blue; black; or white clothing to demonstrate the coldness of the picture. In reality, the reason behind this is mainly revolved around the current season--winter--and the fact that there is snow coming and it should be fun to create a visual out of the weather. My goal is to learn how to make the snow the main focal point rather than the goddess. Also, this is an interesting concept for me because winter is my favorite time of the year and I am excited to see how the snow really plays out in the ending picture. Khione is the goddess of snow in Greek mythology and is the daughter of the god of the North Wind and Winter--thus creating her to become the goddess of snow. Yet she is also known as a snow nymph in Roman mythology--but for this visual she will be a goddess and not a nymph. But no matter what she is catagorized, she has brown eyes and black hair. Khione has the ability to turn people into ice; so an idea this is in mind would be to have someone be frozen but this isn’t a set in stone idea because I am not totally sure on if I want to incorporate more than just the focus on what she stands for and the metaphor.
