Hey /p/.
I have to do a "7 deadly sins" project for a B+W photography class. All my ideas are really tacky. Anyone have any ideas that are artistic but subtly hint at one of the 7 deadly sins?

This actually could work.

A perfect pair for lust, with the girl leaning forward towards the lens.
An obviously fake pair for envy.
A flatchested woman for greed.
Some pair that somehow suggests a firey nature for wrath.
A flabby, untoned pair for sloth.
A girl holding her shirt open showing them for pride.
Some big, fat, saggy ones for gluttony.

It could work. The problem is convincing seven women with the right breasts for it to let you photograph them, and, of course, that you probably would have to be extremely talented to pull it off.

>>90768probably is the right idea, though I'd shoot a nightclub instead of a prostitute.

if you can't do the assignment yourself you should fail and since you're here proving you can't do it yourself, you should drop the class.

Hang on, flatchested = greed?

A stretch. Not flatchested naturally (I actually usually prefer smaller breasts) but because they're really stingy about buying food, like how Ebenezer Scrooge is always portrayed as emaciated.

I couldn't think of anything else, and to be honest, in retrospect, I dislike the idea of using something great likes breasts to represent sins.

OP: While I agree with the breasts idea, you'll probably have a very angry "woman power" chick in your class who will get pissed off at you using breasts to depict sins...as if women AREN'T the cause for them...

dont worry about your ideas being tacky.the entire idea of basing a project of the "7 deadly sins" is a fucking cliché.

just make sure you learn something from it.

QFT. Seriously, get some humanity.

>as if women AREN'T the cause for them...
And it's people like this who give Feminists ammunition.

I also take issue with the idea that, you know, being a human being is a sin. Obviously indiscriminate and dissolute sex, eating, etc. is negative and shallow and to be avoided, but taking too many or the wrong vitamins is negative. Neither are evil. But that's a whole different discussion.

If you guys would just be smart and turn into atheists, there would be no such thing as sins.

OP here. I would love to do the breast idea, but not for a highschool class.
Being a female photographer, not-so-classy pictures of breasts probably would'nt get too many complaints from social-crusader-feminist-woman.

Legally, can I refuse to do the project because it is religious, in a sense?

Unlikely, I'd think. You've been given enough room to move that you're not having to directly portray religious themes and you've not been told in what light to show them.

no, if i were a teacher i'd just fail you. teenagers are so fucking stupid these days with their OH NOEZ ITS RELIGIONY IMMA NO DO THAT

well fuck you why don't you not study drop history or literature because thats a very large study or religion right there? why don't you quit biology and chemistry and physics because it goes against your 'religious senses'? stupid. fucking. kids.

If this were /b/, I'd suggest a pair of breasts with a Star of David necklace dangling between them for Greed. But this is not /b/, so I'm not going to make a racist remark like that.

>>90753
Here's the idea that occurred to me:
Pick an inanimate object, like a mailbox or a shrubbery or something. Get seven friends. Have each of them act out one of the Sins with the inanimate object. Like for gluttony, have them gnawing on it. Lust, trying to have sex with it. Dunno about greed, but the others are pretty easy.
>> Anonymous !MjcMqTX/iM
>>90983
Greed -> Trying to steal the object?

Or go for Cliché as theme, and shoot overdone stuff regarding the seven sins.

ha, i cant believe u guys taking my idea seriously.

well how about alluding back to renaissance paintings of the seven deadly sins. reconstruct a scene of one of these paintings, obviously in a modern setting and with situations that would make more sense today.

They don't want to raise too much suspicion.

Clearly, waht you need to do is use cats.

Cats performing different sins, like a cat buried in a bag of treats for gluttony, two cats fighting for wrath, etc.

That failing, you should just recreate scenes from the movie "Seven". Even Thom Yorke did it, you can too.

Honestly, and student who showed up with a picture of a head in a box would get good marks from me.
