Lightroom love

Man I really do love Adobe Lightroom.  People say to me all the time that they need a better camera when they see some of my pictures (not that my photos are amazing). I just think they expect to take a picture and they are done.  I spend a lot of time in Lightroom trying to get the most out of my images.  I fall under the philosophy of shooting to the right without clipping and try to get the most robust digital negative as possible. 

Here are some before and afters of a trip I took to Mexico.  I went to Tepoztlán during dia de los muertos

If you do not use the Split toning feature in Lightroom you are missing out!  I recommend heading to LR now and trying it out ASAP

 

 

The Other Guys VFX

The Other Guys was on tonight and the drinking scene was on.  I was wondering how they did it and found this breakdown.

   

 

The scene from The Other Guys is the same concept from the Philips 21:9 Carousel video.  Check it out its pretty amazing.

 

 

My Name Is Walter Hartwell

I scored the first print for breakinggifs!  The artis is Daniel Danger and the print looks really nice.  Its from the pilot episode and is titled My Name Is Walter Hartwell

breakinggifs.com has a big announcement May 10th.  

Paul Sheer has created this website so he can claim to have the greatest breaking bad gif site on the internet and I think he has won.  When he did something very similar with the TV show Lost they had some great work for sale by great artist, Olly Moss, Tyler Stout, Daniel Danger Ken Taylor, and Kevin Tong.  I personally never watched lost so I am a little more excited about this opportunity to buy some Breaking Bad art.  Breaking Bad to me is one of the best shows on tv right now.  It continually gets better each and every season, which not all shows can say that.  

Check out the video down below

 

Here are some examples of the Lost art.

Olly Moss's Locke's Secret

  

 

Kevin Tong's The Hatch

 

Ken Taylor's The Smoke Monster

Tyler Stout's Lost Print

 

If the Breaking Bad prints are of this quality I am going to be a happy yet broke person.  Still isn't for sure that they will be doing prints this time around but I hope they do.

 

Beast

Beast of the Southern Wild was one of the projects that the Students at AAU worked on in the collaborative class last year and the beginning of this year.  They did an amazing job getting all the shots that they had finished at a high level.  Check out the traile, and go see it June 29th 2012.
