Photo Shoot

[Chance Marmalade]

I'm doing an in costume photo shoot this Friday and I have a fun concept I want to work with. I thought I would see if I could get some suggestions since there are so many talented and funny people here.

The idea is to do a bunch of visual puns (I dont have any of these yet) and ridiculous situations as Chance, mostly I want to put him in tough but funny situations. I am willing to wear all sorts of different outfits that may be appropriate!

Here are a few ideas I've had.

I want to do a few classic slapstick shots like Chance absent mindedly sitting on TNT with a fuse near a cigarette (Keaton did this already but I want just a couple of shots of classics like this.) Any more of these you can think of from this era of performers would be most appreciated!

Chance is carving 'Chance + Lulu' in a tree and the tree has a carving knife near his back and Chance is staring wide eyed into the camera.

Chance doing up his tie in ridiculous boxer shorts taking the situation dead serious.

Chance heavily laden down with something embarrassing.

Chance confused by directions.

A scene involving a much larger guy towering over Chance after he's done something stupid. I am going to improvise the big guy with someone nearby if at all possible.

Stuff like that. The list is a bit short but I imagine you clowns can add a great deal to it if you wanted! Please feel free to give me 1 suggestion or 25, seriously, 25 suggestions each would be wonderful! What would you like to see a clown do in photos like this?

And thanks for reading this far!

I wonder if rather than a big guy if you could have a big shadow hovering over you. I think that the implication would have an even greater effect.
