here's another project from my window display class. in order to complete this project, we had to paint the entire back wall & floors (not pictured). then, we cut out two half circles with a cutawl & joined them together with a big piece of plywood in the back. then, we painted the hypnosis swirl & nailed it to the wall. we searched for props that would be appropriate for the window, such as alcohol bottles, pills, a cart (for the pills) and a pillow. the pillow is supposed to be the one that kills jack nicholson's character in the movie. the pills signify life & the pillow, death.
styling the mannequins and striking them in the right position were the last things we did. we strategically placed nurse hatchett behind jack-o, so it would look like she was watching him to make sure he would take his pills. luckily, we found a mannequin for jack, with his palm open. we were able to place the pills in his hand & with his head tilted back, it was almost as if he were saying, "OH GOD. NOT THESE DAMNED PILLS AGAIN."
