Wizard of Oz Dorothy and Scarecrow Dollmore BJD Doll Photoshoot
Written by Teresita Blanco (The Artsy Sister)
In celebration of Spring, I decided to do a lighthearted photoshoot. I went for the Wizard of Oz theme.
I focused it only on Dorothy and the Scarecrow. I was able to get the Scare Crow outfit.
One of the ballerina outfits of my Odette doll resembled the blue, plaid outfit of Dorothy.
Since the pieces were there, I did a two doll photoshoot.
The first part of the photoshoot focused on one doll at a time.
I then tried to pose them together. This is easier said than done.
Both dolls have different heights and limbs. Getting them to pose together was a constant battle.
It was amusing, nonetheless. I chose my vampire doll to play the Scarecrow.
The jacket of the outfit didn’t fit her too well. So, now, she just has her pale, creepy arms exposed.
Eventually, I might get the entire cast of the Wizard of Oz. It all depends if the stars align, with my budget.
If not, whatever. With the Scarecrow doll, I went for a creepy vibe to it.
I imaged her as a brainless, zombie Scarecrow. I even tried to mimic a few Thriller poses.
It would be fun to see a Wizard of Oz inspired horror movie.
Since it is all a dream, you can do whatever you want to the plot. For Dorothy, I chose for her graceful ballerina poses.
When put together, the look was complete. I didn’t have a good dog bjd doll.
So, this is why I used an LOL Surprise dog as prop.
I didn’t have a strong yellow carpet.
The floor came out a little bit muted. It is the effort that counts.
The background was green in order to invoke the memory of the emerald city.
I saw the Wizard of Oz at the same age as everyone.
It was amusing, to say the least.
I also saw the anime show.
The Toho version of Dorothy was blonde.
So, this is why my Dorothy has blonde hair.
I didn’t have a proper brown wig that resembled the classical movie and TV show depictions of Dorothy.
In the original book, Dorothy had blonde hair.
So, my Dorothy is more faithful to the source material.
Aside from the photoshoot, I did a little video of the dolls.
It is going to be up and about in my Tiktok and my Youtube channel.
I tried to kill two birds with one stone.
I figured I would make a video since I had the entire set ready and the dolls fully dressed.
I have been window shopping for dolls.
I will probably wait for my pre-order to arrive before getting a new doll.
This is assuming that I do not find a new in stock doll that I like.
I think I ranted enough about dolls for one day.
This photoshoot ended up being ridiculously big.
I took about 50 something photos.
I could split it in fragments, but it too much of a bother.
This is Teresita Blanco, the Artsy Sister.
Bye, bye and God Bless.
I find myself in the need to rant.
I went overboard with the photos.
It would work well if I could figure out the gallery feature of my website.
It is only available in the product section.
I need to add these photographs one at a time.
Depending on how many photos, it can take a while to upload everything.
The photos that remain are the ones I took of both dolls.
I suppose I overcomplicated things for myself.
I got a little too ambitious with this photoshoot.
I think for next week I will keep things simple.
It will be one doll.
With only, 20 something photos.
I still haven’t decided which will be featured bjd doll.
I might photograph my guy dill.
Yes, that does sound like a fun idea.
I am done.
