Photo AlbumThe Circus is in TownMar 16, '08 1:56 AM
for everyone
The concept for this carnivalesque batch of photos was inspired by one of Cirque Du Soleil's big top touring shows called "Alegria." Dark and heavy -- Alegria was a departure from the usually bright circus atmosphere. The said show's main theme was about the abuse of power and the subsequent struggle for freedom.

Models: Anne Chloe Choi and Myka Francisco
Photos taken at: Clock Tower (Manila City Hall)
Concept and Photography by: Katrina Pallon
Make-up and Styling: Kreame Isaac

**Credits go to Keith Dador and Evan Tan for helping out in this shoot.

Are you planning an official printing of this one ?
(since, after QooP, it's too low res to order it online from here)

Demanding ang Myka! Haha! Gumawa muna kasi tayo ng budget projections. Kotse mo ba ang gagamitin? Hehehehe! Pupunta kasi akong Bacolod next week (March 25-27), so malamang bawas sa funds yun na pang-Vigan. Haha! Kailangan ba talagang dito mag-usap.

Kape! Bigay ko sa yo hi-res copies mo. XD

I'd love that ! But I'm afraid it might reveal expensive in transportation Manilla/BKK for a 24x36 (black background) kindda like this here : http://www.qoop.com/photobooks/ri_poster/layout.php

Any idea about costs ?
Can contact me by necrokael@darkasia.com

Well yeah, it's pretty much expensive. I have no idea about the costing. I think you can still order a hi-res print of this photo from Multiply. It takes a month before Multiply compresses the images. I'm just not sure if its resolution though would suffice for a 24x36 print. Let me know if it works for you. If not, I'll contact you on your email. XD

ay oo! ung spiderwalk sa Exorcist. hahaha.

boobless. ouch. hahahaha!
necrokael wrote on Mar 18
Indeed I checked Multiply/Qoop service first thing. 'Says there it is too low res for the printing I'm asking.
But I'll check again later in case it's just because of the time it takes to Multiply for compressing the pictures.
Salamat Katrina :)

Thank you!!! Costumes were made/produced by the stylist for this shoot, Kreame Isaac. And I managed to secure permission to shoot at the clock tower through a contact. Hehe! Pero mahirap humingi ng permission. It took some time and a lot of patience before I was finally allowed. Thanks again for the kind comments!
