“Scream” was shot while exploring high-contrast lighting. It is meant to show primal fury and bold, loud catharsis. I wanted a simple composition with a dark background to draw more attention to the expression of the subject. His eyes are obscured to make him seem less human, almost sinister and full of raw emotion.
