This image is a digitally altered photograph of the casino, I felt that I needed to explore different medias and new ways of looking at my chosen location. I decided to add a neon pink backdrop to the casino to give of the impression that the casino is set in a place like Miami for example.
When we look at programs such as ' Miami Vice' for example, we see this pink neon through to light blue colour scheme in the title sequence and this is also replicated/played upon in the game 'Grand Theft Auto: Vice City', especially in the loading screens.
I think using this colour scheme in my work for this location would work well to tell a story of 'sleazyness' through juxtaposition of an aesthetic that could perhaps suggest exoticism and affluence and a the look of a location that is trying too hard to be just that.
