Movie Buildings in the Real World
I was interested in creating a project that featured iconic movie architecture, but in a real world setting. Architecture in movies is rarely unimpressive so to take majestic buildings like the Cinderella Castle and relocate them to the wonderfully medieval and mysterious city of Prague, City of 100 Spires was a fun project to undertake.
I added in the coordinates of the destinations to the polaroids to add a sense of discovery, and you can see the full works, complete with cool interactive flip cards, here.
I hope you enjoy!
