I dunno, it sounds like you'd be the directors bitch. You'd scout out fantastic framing and shooting angles, and then he'd want bullet time and dolly zoom vertigo effects (which is awesome by the way) in every scene.

pwn posted:I've been doing TV work for years before getting into photography. Only very recently have I even started to grasp the basic notion of film cinematography, though, coming from a TV background. Everything I've ever shot is shot like a TV talk/music show, which is great for TV talk/music shows and not so great for everything else. I loved The Fountain as a film, I'll have to rewatch it for the cinematography. One thing that I've got to add.. I've been rewatching Buffy and Angel recently, and I'm falling in love with their use of light, or should I say, dark. It seems like its a pitch black canvas in most scenes, and light's used sparingly to open up only certain parts of the shot.. I love it.

I've been toying with the idea of making a facebook page for my photography business, but really, it's a bitch. You either need to watermark them like gently caress, deal with lovely jpeg compression, or do something else. I'm more than happy to let a combination of lightroom, my blog, my website, and flickr comprise my workflow, without adding in all the steps involved in throwing them onto facebook too. With LR3 directly exporting to a flickr photostream, it's going to be more and more of an effort to involve facebook in the workflow. Barely makes the effort worth it.

OK team. I've just spent half the day taking photos of coffee for a photo essay competition. I now realize the the competition says its subject is "Food, or anything related" I'm concerned that if I entered it, they'd turn around and say "Not food." so I'm hoping to plead a bit of a case with my entry.. Ways that coffee can be related to food.. go!

dunkman posted:Yeah but there's no contract since it's just me going "hey hold this while I drain the lizard." I'm not sure about elsewhere, but in New Zealand, on top of this, (unless specified otherwise via contract etc) the copyright is held by the person/people in the photo. So if someone took a photo of you, they couldn't sell it or distribute it without your permission.

I had a bit of a play around last night.. you're right, it's supposed to pull thumbnails from posted pictures and link to the releative posts. From checking out your site, I've figured out how to assign certain photos to the thumbnails and link them, but they're static, they don't move.. Might have to play around some more

Ballistic Photon posted:Is there any general consensus on Ken Rockwell around here? I see people often linking to his site on other photography forums. I just can't find myself getting into anything he has to say. After hearing how I'm an idiot for using a tripod during the day because he failed to account for the multitude of reasons why someone might use one, and being told to use the FART system for better photos, I felt I was done with Mr. Rockwell. He's very much a "Don't bother buying a lens with image stabilizing, I don't, so you will of course never need one either." kind of guy. He seems to know what he's talking about, but his point of view is THE WAY. Oh so many statements that he tells as fact, are just his misguided opinion. His reasoning behind the tripod thing. "These indoor and night shots are hand-held. Tripods are for the weak. I stack the odds in my favor by firing bursts of several shots in the Continuous shutter mode and sorting out the sharpest later" Before Nikon or Canon releases a camera they go to Ken and they ask him to test them, the best cameras get a Nikon sticker and the less good get a Canon sticker. When Ken Rockwell went digital, National Geographic nearly went out of business because he was no longer physically discarding photos. When Ken Rockwell brackets a shot, the three versions of the photo win first place in three different categories. Cyberbob fucked around with this message at 22:54 on Oct 5, 2010 |

It really grinds my gears when people rebuttal my critique. Him: Hey guys give me critique on this photo. Me: Right side looks fantastic, lots of detail, left side looks far too blown out, needs more detail. Him: jokes on you i did that on purpose. The blown out part is suppose to be the sun, so it makes sense. Me: If it needs an explanation as to "why it looks good", maybe it's not?

Colour theory time. When matching colours to be complementary, should i be using a RGB (light) or a RBY (ink) palette? I'm thinking ink because it's more visual on a static surface, but red looks so sexy with cyan, I'm thinking RGB looks awesome.
