Theory into Practice: Collage Development 8

Collage Development 8: James Bond role reversal

With the most recent Bond films, it is arguable that there has been more of a focus on James Bond as both a hero and a sexual object, with the development of a female gaze, and so I want one of my collages to be looking at the scene in Casino Royale where Bond emerges from the water in a similar style to Honey Ryder.
That being said, the woman in the clip is also being objectified still, so maybe its just more of a balance as opposed to a complete shift.





The collage is pretty simple, but I think it makes the point about the female gaze. Again I've tried to add a bit of humour to it using the 'phwoar' text and also the ripping of the chest to represent the idea of being 'ripped'. Pretty obvious, but I think it has the right impact.
