Genius Optical Illusions To Promote Pet Adoption

1157

ADVERTISEMENT

There are a lot of potential pet owners but some of them need a little bit of inspiration to adopt. Photographer Amol Jadhav and art director Pranav Bhide have created a powerful campaign for World For All Animal Care And Adoptions in Mumbai to spread awareness about their adoption event, and – most importantly – it was effective!

Using clever lighting and framing techniques, the creative duo made a series of optical illusion portraits that contain two images in one. The artists arranged their portrait subjects to create an animal shape in the negative space between them. Everything came together when they turned on a super bright backlight and placed gentle fill light in the front, perfect for the tagline “There’s always room for more. Adopt.”

People heard Amol’s and Pranav’s message – compared to last year, the attendance of the event boosted by 150%, and this lead to 42 adoptions.

    What an impressive work of art! To me this is what art SHOULD be defined as... Makes you look twice at the skill and thought involved.

    I really like how you see the animals first then the people just fill in afterwards. Creative and ingenious thought process just to create this in the first place.

    Then make it easier for genuine people to adopt maybe? I'm all for it, but it is so damn hard for some people to adopt, but so easy for others. So annoying.
