RATIONALE
The Tandaris Outbreak was a series of White Dwarf Magazine articles for Games Workshop to promote the "Hobby" which utilised a lot of narrative around a plague outbreak. The scratchy photography was used to accompany the story and add atmosphere.
The concept behind the photography, like the story itself was to leave a lot to the imagination, the images are dreamy and appear to be taken randomly by unmanned (possibly damaged) security devices. The trick was to take "bad" photos, lots of quick point and shoot, sharp directional lighting and low depth of field. On their own the photos don't look very good but they make the perfect base to help achieve the final outcomes after the aging effects have been added.
