• CineFest #1

  A day after submitting my final film (Anty-Human) I dived straight into volunteering at the British and International Festival of Cinematography (BIFC) to document the entire event. In some spare moments when the camera was capturing the audience, I managed to snap a few photos on my camera. I picked 7 favourites out of those. This is…

• First Wedding.

  Not mine, but a first for my photography. The day went very well in my opinion but I was so tired from just general stress I went to bed at 9pm (usual time is between 1am and 4am).

• Day 7: Cousin Avi.

  If you like rock and funk, look this band up. Very fresh and a little reminiscent of RHCP on Blood Sugar Sex Magic. Evening light have great shadows to the  scene. Tried to back away from the stage so the first and third shots are from the crowd. Couldn’t help but use the makeshift lens…

• Day 6: Billy Lockett.

  The headline act of the festival though, in my opinion, much less memorable than Cousin Avi (tomorrow’s post). The first photo is probably my best shot from the whole event. The 24-105 lens is perfect for gig shots. The second shot I took from the stage to have more angles to choose from when going…

• Day 5: King’s Gambit.

  The first shot I will probably add to my glimpse collection. Same stage as Leyla Jane and Sean Grant so I picked a similar edit for the last two, with tinted, dark shadows.

• Day 4: Hannah Faulkner and Leyla Jane.

  Respectively. Although reminiscent of coffee shop ‘art’, I like to use the cream-tone to warm up my black and white portraits. I should have left a little more space above the head in the first shot.

• Day 3: Nevermind.

  At least somewhat inspired by the late Kurt Cobain. Didn’t want to go overly grunge on the edits so the first and third are plain, clean. Wanted to give the second a little character with a dark, black and white finish.

• Day 2: Sean Grant and the Wolfgang.

  The first shot is with my quirky diy lens-baby hence the blur. Opted for a warm green post process and a slight vignette on both to give them an indie look.
