| | | This is something that I came up with a while back. Not sure how many times it has been done, but I really love this old barn and really wanted to do this. So, I made a dress, stuffed my friend into it, used a studio dropcloth as a stage curtain, and strung her up as a marionette. It turned out rather bizarre and creepy as the marionette who got away, but I think it's missing something in post-processing. BTW it's all film, and some photoshop manipulation. I've omitted a few from the storyline, but hope it still makes some sort of sense. It would have been a long post! 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20.

| | | I should have commented sooner. Your idea here is brilliant, I'm assuming it was your idea. It's also well done from a photo essay or story POV. Photo essays were the backbone of LIFE Magazine and others for decades. Then hand held video happened. It has it's place, and I won't get nasty on what's happened, (how sad, lame and easy it's become, Jennie Beker pls die) Okay that was nasty, but really... A clean creative sensual photo essay like you have produced is beautiful. Sure some shots could be tweaked a bit, composition, blah blah, that's minor. Your set is all win, congratulations. Concept/idea is great and original, or a well done redux if not totally original. Copying sucks, but being inspired, and influenced is a valid way of personalizing something that has been done or already exists. Photography and location is very good. Model suits the role very well, great casting.

| Wow, thank you! Sorry I didn't respond sooner, I've been off the forums for a bit. yes, it was a my original idea; I really like to try an bring rural-ex into odd people shoots. She is by far my favorite model. She isn't creeped out by my exploration side. I did have quite the "Deliverance" moment with the owner of the barn (he was out feeding his horses when I drove up, so I got to ask for his permission). He was an odd not-all-there character who seemed somewhat turned on by the idea of "stringin' 'er up in mah barn"..HAH Nonetheless, I need to get back out and come up with more shoots like this one. Thanks for the compliments! Post by insainly sound Really like the concept, but I feel like something is missing, but I'm not sure what... 2 & 3 are my favorites! |
Thank you...yeah, I had this planned for a bit, made the dress, procured the "curtains" from the studio, and even got another friend to help keep the strings taught..but I really should have thought about the end story/collating it together a bit more. I really needed some sort of evil-captor character for emphasis and cohesion. There's always next time, right? Post by KublaKhan #17 & 20 ftw. |
haha freedom!
