Project 2

     Black metal brunch. Appropriating images usually comes down to sending a message or social comment on the wrongs of the world. I just wanted to throw a bunch of black metal musicians into a nice cafe and laugh. There wasn't much of a purpose besides a little joke.
     The problems I had was most of the images were in stage lighting or from album covers. Each person had to be cut out from a dark background and the amount of hair and spikes made the process quite tedious. There was also the issue of image quality. There is an unspoken rule of black metal about always looking serious.
     Overall it was fun to do but as always I wish I had more time and a larger scope of images to pull from. I restricted myself too much by only placing black metal musicians rather than metal musicians. I was also quite bias by trying to place people from bands I like rather than all black metal in general.
