You will need to scroll this window across to see the entire image. This final wide angle piece aims to encapsulate the essence of a scrolling level in the old Super Mario Bros game, the thrills, the danger, the mystery, the sense of achievement and the anticipation of what will be ahead. As you could imagine, this was the hardest of the three compositions. Firstly, the sunlight casts sharper shadows hence offering various difficulties. Secondly, models needed to retain the exaggeration of perspective in the photo and more models had to be built. These models include the mushroom platforms, coins, flagpole, turtle shell, fortress and question blocks. In the picture alongside you can see how I began to put myself into the picture... difficult but rewarding!     Original photo Date completed: 17th of June, 2002 Back           Forward
