Recent mixtape, Bethlehem -Chase Fetti x Elcamino packs quite the punch for seven tracks. It just goes to show what types of brilliant creations come to life when certain individuals work together.
When you brush strokes and cross paths with certain individuals it is almost a symbol of affirmation. For Chase Fetti – he just happened to be cousins with NFL players. Hov just happened to come through his Cliffwood, NJ area because Memphis Bleek son lived on his block. When things occur by happenstance it is all you can do but apply pressure to utilize those connections that round the corners…

Here is a quick video that breaks down the stages of animation that went into my short “Mr Snake.” There were plenty more stages between these that I made to accomplish the final product and many discarded tests and drawings. The final short consists of around 300 coloured images plus titles cards. Animation is extremely time consuming but amazingly rewarding. . #animationprocess #tradigital #digitalanimation #snake #frog #animation #2danimation #characterdesign #cleanup #firstpass #finalshot #gaircook https://www.instagram.com/p/BsUZnjLhCUw/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1inybrpxy75dy
My #finalshot in #machida and I got one of my #favorite #trailsoflight and this was my #result. #picoftheday #art #fun #nightphotography (at Machida, Tokyo)
We had to consider the disappointingly low options to choose from (in terms of both flashes firing at the same time). The main light supposed to be the cyan one but here both looks fairly equal ( can be sorted out in post-production )
Here the clown mask is less visible but the pose is much ‘ ready to jump ‘ / dynamic than on any other photos
Her figure looks more casual and also she is positioned right in the middle of the tunnel; also the hoody implies a more introvert personality - is she hiding from somewhere? does the creepy clown following her all the time - can trigger narrative in the viewer.
( this copy is brightened to see the edits )
PHOTOSHOP EDIT
By using layers - enhanced the colour of the flashes ( Photo filter - Gradient ) , brighten or darken ( dodge and burn or Levels ) some areas of the image, also to crop / retouch some unnecessary parts from the image ( Patch and Clone tool on duplicated layer )
FINAL EDIT ( submission file - colour profile altered for printing - therefore it less contrasty and the colours appear flat too )
The original photo has been cropped to bring the subject more in focus - by doing that we haven’t considered that Inka’s figure would be enlarged too, although I am very happy with the Dutch tilt - draws the eye to the subject and also adds an extra twist to the scene
The green cast in the background’s been enhanced - the orange flash looks less significant but it still looks natural ( imitates street lamp )
Cyan flash could have been more direct - should have used a snoot maybe?
We didn’t ask Inka to wear anything specific - unfortunately she turned up in checked shirt and it does look similar to the patterns the Clown is wearing - note for self - more previsualisation needed before a photoshoot!
