For my multiframe series, I pulled from my archives. I paired these shell photos from my still-life series with other old photos of similar colors and vibes. These paired photos give the still shells a different ~energy~.
This series is inspired by the work of Ray Metzker. I have adopted the following characteristics of his photographs: - Black and White - Heavy shadows - Bright highlights - Shadow lines cutting the frame - Cityscapes - People as subjects of the photo
For my first draft, I received positive feedback about the dark darks in my photographs. This week, I tried to create even more contrast, more true to Metzker's photos. I tried to "cut" the frame with deep shadows. For my last draft, I focused a lot on storefronts and very head-on views on buildings, but for this draft, I explored more dynamic angles. Again, photos are similar to imitate Metzker's multi-frame work.
Ray Metzker is characterized by heavy shadows, b&w, city settings, and multiframe. I produced the best photos when it was sunny out—prime time for shadows. I used the black and white filter and decreased the exposer to deepen these shawdows. The near-duplicates of photos mimick Metzkers multiframe layout.
