August Bradley

just found this website August Bradley Media where they have a team of content creators comprised of cinematographers, art directors, post-production specialists and many other people. August Bradley started his work in advertising and conceptual art photography he has had numerous graphis golds award here is a few of his images 



I really like the way that all of these images have been set up the constructed scenes all of them being really gritty but there is always an element that stand out in the image because of this I really like the way the image with the bird cage has been put together as you could have it looking really horror like as well  

 

35 breathtaking Horror and macabre photography

just pondering about on the internet when I came over this site showing 35 images of horror and macabre photography. this site has found some amazing photographs which I would love to try out next semester :) there are so complicated images so I'm going to get my photoshop skills better over the next couple of weeks and improve on them :)

video inspiration

right so I have been looking a lot at Erwin Olaf so I decided to look at the mini films that he has done I found this one to be really strange but at the same time aesthetically pleasing. the end is where I really enjoy the film as we see what he thinks what happens in the 2019 with what he thinks people are going to look like with all this cosmetic surgery, for some reason this video reminds me of Desperate Housewife like how classically dress up these women are but at the same time I this funny feeling that they might be having an affair as in some of the video you will see the woman touch the other woman on the bum for a few seconds like there is sexual tension between them. The music behind it gives it a child like feeling a sense of innocents. this gives it different essences between innocent but also being a fiend I want to say like there is a good and bad, in both way in this video the whole idea of cosmetic surgery and having an affair being seedy and then how clean and the music in the video to give it a child like essence. So I'm going to see if I can find any more of his short films and post them up but it was difficult to find this video, please enjoy it :)   


Stencil photography

So the photo shoot I did the other day went really well even if there was a few hiccups like stores being closed to pick up the key light-meter and colour gels but we got let in by Darren so we got my shoot started put the make up on got the white background down and basically had to use trial and error to get the lighting and the camera set up right but it was only like this for a few minutes as I got it all shorted out quite quickly. so here are so of my images :P
right so here is a selection of the images that I edited the other day I really like the way that some of them have turned out  so with the ones that I found stood out I put into a landscape style and to have all 4 images together like this so as you can see its one panoramic image from the 4 best images I have to be honest out of these four the one that catches my eye the most is the third one I just like how bold it is the way it keeps your eye on it, but I find it interesting to have them all together as well  you could display these as individuals.
