Theme of the Portfolio

Brief of Work

“Moving on with a Wicked Stepmother”, depicts 12-year-old Rihanna’s journey of moving on from her mother’s death as a new woman is introduced into her life by her father. Rihanna puts an ad for a new mom on Instagram hoping to find a better replacement than the woman her father has chosen. Obsessed with the story of Cinderella, Rihanna equates her new potential stepmom with the wicked Stepmother from Cinderella, but later realizes the word “wicked” takes on a whole new meaning for her.
