there is a house in New Orleans, they call The Rising Sun...

Okay; I've NEVER had this much trouble coming up with an idea for a photo. I couldn't think of anything - so i kept putting it off - but here it is:

There was havoc in the old cemetery outside of Twinbrook today - some wannabee voodoo "priestess" decided that for S100,000 she would raise her first zombie. Problem was, the corpse in question was over 100 years old, and to be honest, the dumb little girl just didn't have the juice to hold it in her power circle. Luckily, Emilie just happened to be in the right place at he right time. Having spent time in Haiti, the west Indies, and Africa, Emilie has a least a budding knowledge of all things Vodun (not to mention her mother's creole ancestry on her side). She finally managed to get through the frantic girl's (very weak - but still intact) power circle, and finally got the zombie under control - with a big old taste of her own blood. The girl's clients got their big show and Emile bound the zombie back to his grave with good, old-fashioned table salt. Afterward, she pulled the still-weeping wanna-be to the side; and let's just say, she won't be raising the dead again, any time soon.

Pose – Very impressive pose, even with a pained expression! Perfect positioning in terms of fitting within the objects on the floor, there is nothing I can see to fault with this! 10
Styling – Liked the top and shorts which I thought fitted into the story nicely, but there were two things that I didn’t agree with about the outfit. The UGG boots, for me, didn’t work with the summery ensemble, although they are expensive enough for a “socialite” to wear. Secondly, the purse didn’t quite work for me mostly because it appeared as if she was still hanging onto it after having passed out? Loved the hair. 6
Setting – Alleyway-like in every way apart from the flooring: a plain grey would have sufficed. The scattered objects were genius! 9
Concept – Exactly what the brief expected from you, and the background story was very much appreciated. Top marks for making it look just like a tabloid! 10
Overall impression – Apart from a few minor faults, this was outstanding for the very first assignment. Very strong, very well edited, very ambitious – but it worked! 9
44/50

Pose - A bit bland, but in this situation, it worked perfectly. 10
Styling - I loved the handbag, but I couldn't see why she'd be holding it at that moment. 9
Setting - Whoa!! The setting was awesome! 10
Concept - It was a unique idea and I loved the concept. However, it took me a while to grasp what was going on. I don't know if that's just me being slow, but it wasn't obvious to me as to what was going on. 10
Overall impression - It was a great entry and an awesome kick off to the competition. 8
