The creative duo of Omar Victor Diop and Antoine Tempé designed this project, which took place in in ONOMO hotels. The two African models from Dakar and Adjad posed in various re-mixed movies scenes that included American Beauty, Breakfast at [Tiffany’s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strong-like-mom) and even The Matrix. The stunning models brought a unique sense of racial diversity to each of the staged images. While the posters are immediately recognized due to the immaculate similarities, there is still a wonderful sense of curiosity in the photographs. The ultimate goal for this project is to increase the existing sense of transcending "time, space and cultural and racial boundaries" within cinema. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.9/10 - Popularity: 100% | Activity: 100% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/stylephotography) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Cultural Inclusion in Film Promotion:** Opportunities for film studios to feature greater cultural inclusion through mixed media marketing campaigns. - **Diverse Representation in Film:** Opportunities for film studios to cast a more diverse range of actors in leading and supporting roles. - **African-inspired Photography Projects:** Opportunities for photographers to create unique projects utilizing African models and cultural influences in their work. ### Who This Affects Most - **Film and Entertainment:** Opportunities for film studios to promote greater cultural awareness and diversity in all aspects of their productions. - **Photography:** Opportunities for photographers to create unique projects utilizing African models and cultural influences in their work. - **Advertising and Marketing:** Opportunities for companies to create mixed media promotions that incorporate diverse representation and cultural inclusion. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Movie-Themed Art NFTs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheeky-kyser.md) - [Diverse African Doll Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/creativesoul.md) - [AI Movie Poster Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-movie-poster-generator.md) - [Retro Space-Themed Puzzled Posters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/john-carter.md) - [Sci-Fi-Inspired Classical Posters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sen-donnan.md) - [African Identity-Inspired Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/african-identity.md) - [Cult Movies-Inspired Graphic Streetwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/film-club-collection.md) - [Cinema-Inspired Chocolates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a24-movie-chocolate.md) - [Travel-Inspired Canvas Paintings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-passport-series.md)
