Thanks, everyone. I appreciate the gracious comments.

Confession time: this was not really shot with the challenge in mind, to be honest. I was messing around with an off-camera flash idea I saw on flickr and the teddy bear was just a very willing and cooperative "model". The experiment produced this silhouette - which I liked - and then I searched high and low for a movie title that could somehow "fit".

I also tried the technique on myself, but since I am not "fuzzy" enough it was not quite as impactful. (http://www.flickr.com/photos/jnconradie/401207123 )

Matt, indeed, the movie was apparently some type of horror movie, so I am sure the "cute" teddy bear silhoutte would hardly have any real association with the movie itself.

Thanks anyway for all the nice comments. Regards ~jnconradie

It's cute. Isn't alone in the dark a scary movie? :-)

It does look like you're having fun.

Very simple - very nice. Would fit for "The Muppets Go Hollywood" as well - he reminds me of Fozzy Bear.
