8/52 | The Original Godfather

egerbver has added a photo to the pool:

8/52 | The Original Godfather

52 Weeks of Star Wars is a weekly photo project starring various characters from the Star Wars franchise. This photo project is a continuation of sorts to my original series; 365 Days of Clones, specially my Cloned Photos mini-series.

Today marks the eighth creation in this year long adventure. As the title suggests; 52 Weeks of Star Wars, one new photo will be taken, edited and added to the running total every Sunday. The twist is that all the images will be a recreation of sorts of a previous image. Some; like today, will be a recreation from a movie poster, while others will be recreations of famous images of the 20th century or album covers. There may even be the odd recreation of a painting!

“The Original Godfather” is my recreation of Francis Ford Coppola’s infamous "The Godfather" movie poster. The Godfather was released on March 15, 1972 and tells a story of the Corleone crime family.

Some of you may be wondering why I chose to create a Cloned Photo based upon The Godfather. This is one I’ve been wanting to create for some time now. I thought the connections between Don Vito Corleone from The Godfather film and Jabba the Hutt from the Return of the Jedi were very similar. Both characters have power, strength and the unquestionable loyalty of their “families”.

Enjoy!
