Having fun with Forced Perspective

For this fun project, me and my partner Briana Mercado used toys and forced perspective to take pictures!

Using our cameras we got up close to the toys and stood far back to make the illusion of the toys being the same size they would be in real life. We used an aperture of f36 and focused right in between both subjects. Doing this created our illusion which made the pictures look like the toys were truly as big as us! In order to further increase the believability of the pictures the person in the picture was instructed to look straight in front of them. While doing this we also decided to add some feeling to our faces to make it look like we were actually interacting with the toy.
