The Greatest Story Ever Told II

Set in 2012, in time for the end of the Mayan calendar, The Greatest Story Ever Told II hybridizes studio methodologies and conventions of filmmaking and tableau photography to produce a series of film stills for a non-existent feature film.
As a sequel to the 1965 Bible Epic, these stills elaborate on the critical points of a detailed plotline, which critiques contemporary popular culture through it scrutiny of values peculiar to Generation Y.

*With over 3000 photographs shot on both the iPhone 4 and Canon 1DS Mkii, this series was montaged togther in Adobe CS5.
