For my creative activity/idea/whatever, I used
every celebrity look-alike anyone has ever told me to recreate my face with
Photoshop. I used Tom Cruise’s brow and eyes, because a bus driver refused to
call me anything but “Tom-Cruise-look-alike” last semester (I guess I have
crazy-scientology eyes). I used Reese Witherspoon’s butt-chin, Kristen Bell’s
jaw, Rapunzel’s hair, and a few other celebrity’s features. I’m not saying all
of these celebrity look-alikes were very accurate—and they certainly weren’t
all very nice.
The end result was horrifying. And
hilarious. And flattering. My face cannot be justly recreated with all of these
bits and pieces (eww…morbid) of “beautiful” people. I like that. Granted, my
failure to recreate my own face was probably due to my complete inability to
use Photoshop correctly. Despite all that, the process of creating this
hacked-up image was fun, entertaining and in-the-moment, which is what we decided creativity
was all about!
(I'm not including a picture of this particular piece because I don't want to break your computers and cellular devices. You're welcome.)
