Welcome to rizny & xenokattz's first ever Exquisite Corpse Photomanipping Round Robin! We know there are a lot of awesome fellow manippers out there and we want to play with you. Taking a page out of Surrealist Movement, we hope this'll be a fun & challenging activity for those of us who love to mess with photographs (and other people's heads).
How? Glad you asked!
The Rules
1. 4-5 people per corpse image.
2. Sign up for a week (ie. Week 1,2,3,4,5). We, the hosts, will randomly assign groups & keep them secret. This will keep things anonymous & prevent collaboration in the group.
3. Week 1 Manipper has 7 days to find an image maximum 600x800 & manip it according to the theme.
4. After 7 days, Week 1 Manipper will send the image as a JPG to me, Katt, at xenokattzlj [at] gmail [dot] com. I will then forward it to Week 2 Manipper. Lather, rinse, repeat. This will further prevent collaboration. Even if you aren't completely satisfied with your manip, it MUST be emailed to the host in 7 days. If you're done before the 7 days are up, even better.
5. After every person has finished, there will be a GRAND REVEAL! Then a couple days after the GRAND REVEAL, we'll show the progression of the manips.
NOTE: If there are only 4-6 people total (including myself & rizny) who sign up, we'll ditch all this anonymous nonsense & just email each other. ;)
What can we manip?
ANYTHING. I mean it. Change the background. Change the face. Change the clothes, the weapons, the car, the eye colour, the hairstyle. Anything. ANYTHING.
For example, Week 1 Manipper finds a picture of a pony in a farm and manips it so there are many ponies in a field. Week 2 Manipper takes that picture of ponies in a field and makes them baby Pegasuses in a field with the burning remains of the Coliseum in the background. Week 3 Manipper takes the Pegasuses in a field with the Coliseum and turns them into winged centaurs on a carousel. Week 4 Manipper creates Galactus about to smite the carousel. And so on and so forth. Make it as complex or as delicate as you want.
Anything. ANYTHING.
