Making of "...come with me..."

I was playing around with screen recording last night (yes, night) and couldn't stop until I at least had made one video. Here is what I came up with, a high speed run through of the post-processing from one of my last jobs.

grace & blaze

I attended a trend show in Trondheim recently (by Wella), and had a chance to capture some of the models when they were finished on stage. The location was a hotel, and I knew there would be virtually no time for each model. Finally, I found a room (not the biggest I have been in) and set up my "microstudio" with three lights.
Afterwards, I realized I had to come up with something more interesting than the pure white/grey background and racked my brain to find some kind of theme for this. The header for these coming trends are "grace & blaze", so I thought why not experiment around those words...and this is what came to life (with some help from editing tools:-)).

Årets bilde Laugskonkurransen

Under premieutdeling forrige uke kom det frem at mitt bilde "Immature" karret til seg 92 poeng, og dermed en sølvmedalje og beste bilde 2011. Fornøyd med det selvsagt, og bare 1 poeng totalt skilte meg fra sammenlagtseier.
