The Sunken City

(3 of 6)
I’m sure there’s a lot of other creatives who run into this same issue. How can I make my work different from others in my same profession? When I would post and scroll through my social media, I noticed that there are so many motorcycle/lifestyle photographers. That was when I looked back at my work, trying to think of a way to showcase it that’s different and unique from what others were showing.

I often do and ask myself, “how can I make my work better, and what can I do to push my creativity.” I came across a photo of a couple of musicians, and the way the photographer positioned them reminded me of movie posters I’ve seen throughout my lifetime. That’s when this vision hit me about how I could take my photos and create a narrative accompanied by a film poster. I wanted to create something that would take viewers on a journey or bring up any emotions from what they were seeing.

Many rough drafts later, I put together a short series of film posters inspired by the movies and escaping reality to get lost on an adventure.

I hope this inspires you to go out and create your own stories.
