Updated process (After consulting Ms Ina in class on Monday)
witness-me_2

She pointed out to me that this looked too much like something that was just taken out from a story book cover. I actually did add elements from other areas, but I totally got what she meant and decided to tweak it. Looking at this, I definitely wanted the guy to be in it and I thought that the skulls were essential too. Hence, I explored and came up with this.witness-me_2

I thought that this fit the concept quite well because in the movie, when somebody calls the rest to witness him, its basically everybody surrounding shouting “WITNESS ME” and I thought that if portrayed in this manner, it is as if the skulls are shouting just that and getting to him.

witness-me_final

After thinking through it, I decided to not use this as my final 4 compositions too. I feel like it falls a little flat. Hence, I worked on another composition.i-live-i-die-i-live-again_2

The idea behind this is the infinite loop and so I portrayed the humans moving towards the right and the skull towards the left and it leads the viewers eyes in a loop, which I feel represents the quote and the idea of rebirth.

This was another one I tried out that I decided not to use for my final one but probably for the media wall.
