The Headshrinker Web App From National Geographic

The Headshrinker Web App

Neo-Pangea has lined up with NGC to create “The Headshrinker” to have a good time with National Geographic Channel’s “Search for the Amazon Headshrinkers” as a part of the network’s Expedition Week. The Headshrinker is a versatile application that lets users upload any photograph of their wish and transform it into a 3-D shrunken head having a realistic look.

Users can have an option to choose from four dissimilar head shapes and thereby will be able to customize the creepy creation from there. Variety of accessories can also be added including braids, bones, and jewelry. The color of hair of your shrunken head can also be changed or append facial hair to go with the users own, or make some wild-freak-alien-hybrid.

Extra highlight can be added to the experience by selecting from Amazon-inspired environments and a range of background music. Once they are finished with their creations, it can be shared through e-mail, pushed into a Facebook wall, or be publicized on a popular social networking sites like Facebook, Mixx, Digg, Twitter, Delicious, MySpace and reddit. It is a great experience, and a matter of fun to make a creation in there.

In an effort to restrain the angry souls of their defeated foes, Amazonian Shuar tribes would plainly shrink the heads of their enemies. This process involves removing the skull and things contained in the head as well as hemming the eyes and mouth close. This is frown on by western society. The Headshrinker is a creation of Neo-Pangea as a means to replicate this cool process with no messy head-hollowing-out business.

“The Headshrinker” is the most recent collaboration between the National Geographic Channel and Neo-Pangea. The “Aftermath” timeline was their first joint work, and it brought Neo-Pangea a National Addy Award.
