Jason Voorhees

Well, I haven't posted anything in a LONG time, so I thought I'd post some of my light and shadow photography I've been studying using some 7" figures of horror movie icons.

This first one is using the Mezco Toyz 7" Jason from the Cinema Of Fear series of figures. This Jason is based off his appearance in the WORST installment of the Friday the 13th film series; Jason Goes To Hell...but it's a DAMNED great toy!

I lit this in a totally blacked out room, and the lighting is actually from the LCD TV while I was watching the Abyss. The blue underwater scenes cast this eerie blue light across the figure and gave it a rather impressionist look. I really love how you get more of a hint of hockey mask and dead skin and ravaged and damaged clothing...oh, and a big honking machete too. I had some that were just shots of the head, but I didn't think I could get away without showing the machete as well. Out of about...40 some odd pictures taken, this is my favorite.
