The Only City With Shadow

This is my newest work for my last assignment at college. Maybe you've seen this as this is 7'th finalist in 100 Concept cover last year, and it's also on my site in CGsociety.


The idea is about the ONLY city in the world that has shadow for their founding in artificial light. I wanna describe how colorful the town is, with so many people from around the world coming, queuing; just to see their own shadow on the river (As you can see on the left board “20 Ruph to see your own shadow” ).
Even the show with hand shadow (as we often do when was little) is so full of spectators.
With this drawing, a wanna describe activities of each person, want to make them lively. As you can see, how happy the girl in the middle for seeing her own shadow, and there’s a litte boy under her which left from his mother who is still trapped in queue; try to get his stuff fallin. There’s a happy face of people right before his turn, a mother who just realized her boy was lost, an impatient man who wait and always see his watch, etc.
(the tower on the middle is the tower that look like builded in a hurry, as high as it can, to put the artificial light on it (the white box).
And as why the world has no shadow anymore, there’s a long story and philosophy behind it.
