Video Selfie

Prompt

Video Selfie:  Using your iPhone or computer with photo booth (or similar Webcam video software), create a one minute video of yourself that constructs your selfie as an “artistic alter ego:” the artist or designer you want/choose/aspire to be!


To go about doing this, I had to understand what an alter ego was.

“Your alter ego is the other side of your personality from the one which people normally see. “

An alter ego can hence be understood as “the second I” – another different version of me who sometimes comes out.

Result

Here, I’m expressing my singer alter ego – more specifically, my R&B singer alter ego. I express this through the usage of Snapchat’s AR function, transposing Rihanna (my favorite singer)’s face over mine. I’m singing to her song, Unfaithful, too.
