Description
'Revenge of the Phobots' Project - ExampleDeadline
Project Now Closed
You knew this was coming
The next generation of Phobots are being recruited, bigger, faster, and more advanced than ever before.
This time there will be no 'cameras-held-to-face-bots', this is for hardcore, quality cyborgs only.
Open to all those who took part last time, aswell as all those who missed out.....with prizes for the best entries!
Guidelines
Similar to last time, before you start you should see:
+ How to make a basic phobot
Again big jpg.s please, to be sent to gothicrudeboy@hotmail.com
Please don't send cropped, toned, or mirrored photos, I can do that!
If possible, a floating camera effect similar to the top left photo should be employed. The easiest way this can be achieved is with a tripod, mini- or mono-pods are especially good for this. The bottom one was taken by having both hands on the camera on the other half of the photo, which are then hidden by the reflection.
Another technique I'd like to see is rather than using a mirror, having the photo taken by another person. This will allow your photos to be taken against almost any cool background you can find, such as the bottom shot, I took of =Cogito-Ergo-Doleo in the Cardiff Ice Rink.
If anyone wants me to take their photo for them using this method, I'll be available at the 19th Dec London devmeet.
Just remember to bring any props!
Full body shots would also be interesting.
Props! Use props....My phobot hand there was a bottle opener
You could have bionic arms, tripod legs......be creative!
I'm sure theres loads more things that could be done.
For more inspiration see:
+ The Original Phobots
+ OutTakes
+ No-Mo'-Fro-Phobo
Or go watch some Sci-Fi films or something
Prizes
Subscriptions will be given to the creator of:
The most original phobot
The most realistic phobot
My personal favourite phobot

Man, my bank was suspecting fraud on my credit card and destroyed it, I couldn't make the payement for the insurance in time so I gotta wait one more week till it gets sent to France, which means I'll receive it in 15 days.
I might though.

I must get my camera back out for some more fun.
(I miss you. I just got my computer back from the ol' shoppe, it broked down on me, and I about cried when I lost all my documents.) Hopefully you pop online sometime soon.

We don't have a mirror any bigger than a handheld one
hopefully by january I can invest in a vanity or just a big mirror of some type
i could always go to a store that sells mirrors tho
