Challenge: Scene It! (Basic Editing III)

 So this was sorta last minute, so I had to hustle :)

The TV is actually on a fireplace mantle, so I had to build the floor up and put a piece of carpet on it. Other than that it's just my little sister :)
And I made a big mess :) I guess it was worth it :)

perfect execution (pardon the pun)...hope you do well with this (though I never saw the movie, nor even like horror movies, I know the image and this was well done)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 08/30/2006 07:08:44 AM
Excellent... I knew someone would do this :) Would like to see a bit more static on the tv though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 08/30/2006 06:39:06 AM
This is dark, but I like it. Having the tv as the light source does well fro the recreation.
