On the floor


The art director snapped an iphone FPO on his hardwood floor and the client signed off. Off we went for some product shots, my back is still killing me.

Kits


The kits just keep on coming. Forgot to do a set-up shot.

Commercialized Christmas


Tis the season, OK I'm probably going to hell ......... Just trying to make a statement about the commercialized Christmas.

Random weekly snapshots

Plant


Such a nice day, had to get out. The Cargil Plant ( most people still call it the Purina plant ) about a mile from the studio.

Broccoli in a Flower-pot


The name says it all "Broccoli in a Flower-pot". Showing my intern Maria Brubeck some old school photo techniques. Did some old school Arron Jones light painting, with split diffusion. We didn't get the Hosemaster out just a couple of flashlights. 25 sec. f/16 Harrison & Harrison D4 on camera for background and part of front for that dreamy look. A good day of learning light painting, diffusion, dulling spray and cinefoil. I think Maria is now excited she got alittle OCD.

Once Aweek


So I got this idea after watching our jack-o-lanterns deteriorate over the past week. One frame of film once aweek, I know it's been done to death, but I think I'll give it a try do some oversized proof sheets. I tried my best to clean out a spot in the prop-room, the problem is going to be not bumping the camera or set over the next 63 days. I can't do anything that's going to smell or get to nasty, I'd really like to try a big bucket of KFC, but think I'll do a loaf of Wonder Bread next.
