Dinner and A Movie

Let's Catch a Vibe 

The movie that inspired my dinner date was Surf's Up. I wanted this to look like a date with someone who is fun and laid back. However, I also wanted to show that this person may be immature. I chose freeze pops and capri sun to enhance the summer and beach vibe of the piece, as well as demonstrate that this would be a fun and relaxed date but not a very serious one. The movie also has a lot to do with energy, specifically in the waves and the spirituality of the Hawaiian penguins. To show energy and movement I used a lot of repeating circles. The tapestry as the background, the sun for the plate, the beach ball, and the way I arranged the freeze pops all emulate a circular pattern. I also included two shot glasses, both from Hawaii not only to directly tie it to the movie's environment but to continue to show the fun-loving but possibly reckless side this person has.
