I experiment with shadows on this image, i mentioned before how i wanted a darker background but this was difficult becuase then i would lose her face and altering contrast just made her look like an orange with hair. I found middle ground here but would rather there be no shadow on her face as it makes it diffiult to see the expression on it but the eyes still shine through which was my main concern.
Its very differnt to the original idea of DiCaprio looking in to a mirror but i tailored it round to what i would use in my actual trailer.
The original image is very light and in a tighter frame whereas here its wider frame and dark shadows.
hey, I think the slight shadow on her face actually adds to the scared look on her face. As you said it makes her eyes stand out more and look like she's almost on the verge of tears, or like she's been kept awake for days through terror.
