Mugshots Collaboration is now online
« on: March 07, 2011, 11:37:43 PM »
Sorry for the 24 hour delay, but I'm pleased to announce that the 23rd Filmwasters collaboration gallery, "Mugshots" is now online. Thanks to everyone who contributed and especially to Becky P for providing the inspiration  ;)

I felt it necessary to change the accompanying narrative on 2 or 3 of the photos to align them more closely with the original brief and to ensure that they blended better with the other submissions. I'd be happy to edit the text again if you want to send me something different once you've read through the other narratives (some of which are hilarious and truly inspired!)

Bellows can be heard bouncing off my high ceilings.  These are hilarious!  Francois, I love your interpretation, Rebecca - that writeup with the picture makes me cry with laughter and Sean - Lefty Loosey - - Hahahaah!!!!  Love the 'white ink'!!

Can I just say that we are all one funny bunch??  More, more, more!

Oh and Ed!  FABULOUS!  It reminds me of an Eadweard Muybridge.

One of the best collaborations I've seen !

I like all different films format that was used... Ed's shot reminded me "Muybridge" sequences and I love sean's inscriptions on the shot.

Well done everyone !! :D

Superb in every way, but a special mention for Andrea - your film noir-esque write-up is pure genius!

Quite a surprising collab...

I must admit I found this one very hard... I tried so many things which simply didn't turn out!
I finally got tired, made a snowman the lazy way (with a shovel) and decided to put him under arrest... Even though we're used to Winter, this year it's getting ridiculous...

Thank you Ailsa and Diane. I must say that the paragraphs have disappeared making it read like a direct babelfish translation from the Gaelic.

Great collab all in all. Fantastically wide range of contributions.

Can we do something else like this. Please.

Usual suspects rounded up again eh?  A more chilling group of perps you wouldn't want to see.  And, judging by the captions, all of them dangerously delusional and living in some sort of alternative reality.  Send em to the chair I say - hanging's too good for them.  Especially that Wenn guy - what a fruitcake!

Well, you could have used your previously famous crime scene photo with that poor guy who had fallen down the stairs after slipping on a bar of soap on the second story  ;)  ;D  :P

Or then again maybe not  :D

François, I thought that most had seen that shot just once or perhaps twice too much! It's not good after food!

I know I only saw it once... but it's the kind of thing that somehow seems to just gets in your mind and sadly never leave!
Poor guy, I truly feel sorry for him  ;)
