Mixing Real Models & Animation

Parallel Universe' in FutureClaw Magazine

'Parallel Universe' is a creative fashion editorial in FutureClaw that mixes a real human model with animated cartoons.

The editorial features the fun photography of Philip Valende, with model Kara having a good time in a disco with an animated DJ.

Blurring the line between humans, dolls and animations is becoming an increasingly popular trend in fashion and even in real life.

Implications - PLEASE STOP SAYING "LEAVE YOUR THOUGHTS IN THE COMMENT SECTION." IT'S A SPACE FILLER AND CAN BE REPLACED BY MORE INSIGHT :)

The 'Parallel Universe’ editorial in FutureClaw Magazine is at once unsettling in how it blends human models with animation and exciting in how it is something I have never seen before. Leave your thoughts in the comment section.
