Toy Camera

More background research!

Last summer I bought a cheap toy camera at a toy store in Florida. It’s a Holga-like thing that takes 4 pictures in rapid sequence on a single frame of 35mm film. The view finder is a little plastic rectangle that hinges on from the top of the camera, and the lense is cheap plastic. So 90% of the photos come out complete crap. But the other ten percent are nice research for the Mystery Work in Progress.

There needs to be a kind of dream-like haze in this cartoon. These photos are not exactly the right look, but they do have a certain feeling. I’m trying to get a piece of this action in my backgrounds. (see the previous post about background research)
