Art Direction and Photography
by Jan-Daniel S. Belmonte and Frances L. Hu
for The GUIDON, March 2014
This photo was used to accompany an article entitled "Virtual Vices". We conceptualized and created the photo which was published in The GUIDON's March-April 2014 Issue.
The photo was created using empty transparent medicinal capsules, colored sand (from the local bookstore), and different brands of candy. It aims to portray the addiction that comes in small packages, in the form of Android and iOS games that have recently been gaining popularity. We also tried to replicate the visual composition of the game, Candy Crush, to make it more recognizable for the readers.
