"The Power of One; 6 Images"







These are a series of 6 photos that I got from the internet and then I edited them. These are all themed with black and white because they are based on the movie "The Power of One" which portrays racism in South America during the apartheid. I desaturated all of them and used similar filters. I used the art history brush to sharpen some parts in some images and leave other parts of the image untouched. The movie was a great movie and these pictures somewhat portray how the movie influenced me.

"The Power of One; One Word"

This is a project based on the movie "The Power of One". This movie takes place in South Africa during the apartheid times. There is a lot of racism towards blacks and they are treated unjustly.  So in this project I took the South African flag and desaturated it just a little bit so it was a duller color. I then created a border around the flag. After that I used the text and typed the word Revolution. In the movie you can feel that their is a change or revolution about to happen, that is why I chose this word. 

"The Power of One; Poster"



This is a project based on the movie "The Power of One". The movie takes place in Africa so I decided to find an image of your stereotypical african sunset tree. I then found an image of the character Peekay and his mentor from the movie and used the effect overlay on it so it blended in with the sunset. I then added a simple text of the movie title under the tree.
