Skrillex: Reptile.

So, my cat ripped my fingers apart today, I only have two and a half fully functioning fingers on my left hand, so I can't play Minecraft today. Instead, I decided to listen to some Skrillex and get creative. In particular, one of his newest tracks 'Reptile'




So after about 2 hours later, this is the result:

Snow White: Revised.

So last night I was up until 7AM. Playing Minecraft mostly, but then I got bored of building a ghost city that no one will ever see (#ForeverAlone) So I decided to edit some more photographs and ended up re-editing two of the Snow White photographs I did for uni. Oh and remember when I said I was leaving, yeh, I sort of got withdrawn because I wasn't going in. Oh well.




And just a side note, I have a new blog called Shit My Hipster Dad Says. It's great, honestly, go see.

Snow White 2011

This will be my last University project for photography. I'm handing this in tomorrow, the rest of my work in on the 23rd and then I'm leaving. For good. Not because I've finished my course, no, I'm only about to finish my first actual year on the course. It's because studying 'Photography' is drying up every single cell in my body and is currently causing my slow, yet inevitable death, to happen about 20 years too soon. Basically, it's giving my Cancer and AIDS at the same time, while kicking my in the head repeatedly, skinning mye alive and stabbing my organs with a really sharp stick around the clock. In other words. I hate it. So I've decided the drop the whole thing and take a year to figure out A) If I want to go back to university and B) If I do, what I will study. The answer to that will most probably be Planetary Science and Astronomy. But never fear my sweet sexy followers. I'll still be doing artsy shit and updating my blog, probably more often in fact. You see, I love doing photography, studying it on the other hand, is a whole new ball game. One which is most likely called 'Ball to the face several times in a row'

Anyways, the brief was something to do with contemporary art and the only thing I actually remember from the lecture/Brief sheet was 'Story telling' At first I was going to do a series of images based on and inspired by 'Little red riding hood' But I didn't have a red clock. Only a dark Blue/blackish type one. So Little Hood became Snow White. With the extra addition of an Apple. Obviously.

Photo Cinema (University project)

This project was originally going to be a remake of Reservior dogs, but with a female cast, renamed 'Reservior Bitches' but I couldn't find a suitable location in time, but I do still plan to do that. I think it's a good idea. So instead, I ran out of time and models and ended up doing something I know like the back of my hand. Zombie films.

The idea was to create a series of images that look like they were pulled from or used to promote a film. Like still shots or Screen shots. So, everything is set up, like a movie set. The lighting in most of these (Except the last two) are done with, if you'll believe a poor student like me... A wind up torch with a white tee-shirt over it. Who says you need professional, over priced lights, eh? And, the last two, were with a PC screen with a dark grey background. Just don't tell my teacher that :P

A Sunny day in Docklands, East London.

I thought I'd take advantage of what I suspect will be one of the few sunny days England will see. The fact that I got off of work early was a bonus. I also found a neat little location for a photoshoot. Not sure what I'll use it for yet though, maybe some fashion stuff.
