Progression with R + J

I've been experimenting with layering the shadows onto text and have found that it makes the imagery less clear. I may try out different coloured papers and give it another try as i had intended to incorporate moving text with the shadows.

I made a small booth in which to encase it all in and after playing around with the shadows I have found it may work better for the text to be situated on the base and the shadows to be shone onto the back wall. 

Now i've worked out a nice set up i need to sort out my other cuttings, and the text to work with it.

Shadow Making

Last night I had a momentous brainwave and after struggling for 3 months solid I think i've discovered a technique that would work well with recreating the narrative of Romeo + Juliet. 

I had originally planned to tell the story though paper cuttings in the form of a book but now i'm considering using shadows created with my paper cuttings in an interactive way. 

I think i could finally be on to something here....YIPEE!!
