Here's my assignment... can you provide me with inspiration and general ideas to set my brain (and hands) in the right direction?

Constructed Image - 4-5 prints

Week 5, April 29

In this assignment, you will be asked to construct a tableau, fiction, a manipulated scene – or combine photography with other mediums such as drawing, sculpture, etc.
Since the advent of photography, a powerful characteristic has been its connection to the existing world. Although it has been demonstrated again and again that a photograph can be deceiving, people still readily believe that it recreates "reality".

Consider possible approaches:

Tableau scenes, ie, a situation that you have created specifically to be photographed. One definition of tableau is an interlude during a scene when all the performers on stage freeze in position and then resume action as before.
Heightened theatricality
Still-life photography
Digital or darkroom manipulations

Go watch a kung fu movie and hit pause anywhere during a fight scene then try and recreate that.

Check old MTV videos, that would be more than helpful, short plots, simple resources, interesting characters.
