‘Ye is currently on the April/May 2009 issue of Complex. Through working with director Chris Milk, the “Louis Vuitton Don” helped create something that will definitely ”make you look.”
The computer-generated imagery for the photoshoot was based on “form and texture”, says the director. The photography started with a high resolution facial scan, and then a laser scan of Kanye’s entire body using the same technology used to create Brad Pitt’s character in “Benjamin Button”.
Chris Milk has previously worked with Kanye, directing both “Jesus Walks” and “Touch The Sky” videos. Other artists that he’s worked with includes Gnarls Barkley, U2, Audioslave, and John Mellencamp.
