Malaise de L'Orange

EDIT 4/25/08: The rest of the photos from this project are now posted as a video on YouTube. If you'd like to see it, please visit my channel here: [link] and it'll be there. I'd love to just post the direct link to the video, but the URL formats itself weird and breaks. Sorry 'bout that.

Heheh.

This is part of a photography project I've been working on for the past few weeks for my Multimedia class. We were supposed to tell a story using photos. I decided to tell a love story between fruit.

These photos are some of my favorites from the project. If you can't tell what's going on, we follow our Orange friend as he comes home to find his girlfriend's "clothes" scattered around the floor. He then proceeds to catch her in bed with a handsome banana. After that, even his friends can't console him. He drowns his sorrows in nicotine and liquor.

Don't worry. It all ends well.

Each piece of fruit was hand-painted with black tempera to get the facial expressions. The eyes were bought at an art supply store. I think they're teddy bear eyes or something.

I would have liked to post the whole project, but there's over 50 shots in it, so...meh.

Pardon my French.
