Nice idea, but her makeup is just a bit too much. She looks more like a small-time hooker than a runaway -- and maybe that's supposed to be the "after story", but it feels shoehorned on.
So a girl with makeup is usually a small-time hooker? Wow, what an interesting insight, mister seanmartin
No, Mister LeeHarvey -- the point is that if you want to create sympathy for your character here, you'd soften the look as much as possible. You wouldnt overemphasize the makeup -- if anything, you'd shoot with as little as possible. Did you miss that particular class in art direction?
Yeah, I noticed. How're those classes coming along, grasshopper?
Haha, finally you're really funny! I can walk on ricepaper now, Master, aren't you proud of me? >;-p
I guess it's her facial expression that is not gloomy or dejected enough. For a second I thought she is smiling.
And her pants are ripped of with scissors, pretty lame...
>>> Designed to be signed...
She's too hot to be only "a kid on the street". But nice ad.
pardon me for saying this, but i think some kids may escape home for fun if they find this ad.
nice try though...
shahid
omg she´s hot
for a "no copy/paste" world day.
This art direction is fantastic. One of the most original executions I've seen on this site.
