@shotdeck is hosting a fun contest at the moment. Recreating a filmstill with the recourses you have available.
I chose a shot of legend @jakegyllenhaal from the movie ‘Source Code’. Had some hard times recreating his famous ‘pain’ face.
Go have a look over on YouTube, where the full behind the scenes + the color grading breakdown can be found. Looking back at the results, I think I did quite okay. Something I maybe should’ve paid more attention to was choice of lenses. I ended up shooting this one on the Leica Lux 80, which is super soft. Though, the actual is rather sharp.
In short. Go and join the contest, its fun, you’ll learn stuff and you get the chance of winning some dope stuff!

Negative fill. It’s the technique I used most in the work I do. It’s fast, efficient and it creates a great contrast. Check the video (link in bio) if you’re interested in this topic. The video is only 3 minutes long, so no chit-chat!
I used a @matthewsgrip floppy 1x1m, and a cstand in this video!
Thanks buddy @photo.frank for the great shots once again!

#soundon last weekend I built these amazing acoustic panels for my home studio at a total cost of €200 for 8 panels! The result is incredible. I can’t believe I ever did this without.
Also, shoutout to @deitymicrophones for their amazing quality microphones.
The link to the building process can be found in my bio (1st link).

3 years ago, I dove head-first into my freelance career. I must say, I didn't really think this through. My dad used to say: 'never throw away your old shoes, before getting new ones'. Well, I'm sorry dad. I kinda did.
Earling your own money, without a monthly paycheck can be very scary, but it can also be one of the most rewarding things out there.
Check the video if this is something that piques your interest. The link can be found in my bio.
