For the fith of my five tableau’s the brief was to create an image of the vice crimes in Paris. I begin with
the background and create it using exactly the same techniques as tableau one. This background image
is all about infinity and I did not want to lose that when I montage. By placing the Gendarme’s car at the
center I was able to bring the point of infinity through the car window
It was my intention to make this tableau look as close to a straight shot as possible. I shot the image of
the man praying and placed him between two police officers to simulate the arrest of the pimp/human
trafficker. Whilst the arrest is taking place a man in a trench coat taunts a police officer into drawing his
weapon in the belief the man is a suicide bomber. However, he is just a simple flasher. With all this
police activity going on it still does not stop the prostitute continuing to try to get business.
