David's Great Suicide Attempt Number 2

Weird how some of these are starting to grow on me.  Still wish I had more time.

The Young and the Restless


Not really satisfied by the outcome of this project, especially regretting the lack of a working tripod, necessitating really high-ISO pictures, but I really like the theme that resulted from it. Only wish I had more time.

David Levinthal


Where the whole army man gimmick originated.  I really love the details and emotions he's able to communicate with the pictures, while still reminding you that the figures are just painted toys.

Army Men!

I like this picture a lot, for the texture on my hand, the sense of scale it provides, the almost eerie lighting, and the weird green effect on the hand.

Next Project

I'm doing film stills for my next project in the vein of Cindy Sherman's Untitled Film Stills.  Like her, I will also be shooting in black and white and will use costumes and develop settings to create scenes.  I would like my project to read like a storyboard for a movie.  Below are some examples of her work.

From the Dungeon

Super neat picture in which I continue to abuse shallow depth of field to make decent pictures (I really need to work on that, but that's another story).  Taken in my basement. True Story.

More Pictures

Still no flash drive, so here are more choice selections from the last project for me to draw my finals from.  Some of these, I'd like to crop, to create a bike against empty street effect.  Also, a lot of these would look great using polaroid-like filters and monochromatic effects, so hopefully I'll have time to mess with these without having to turn them in late.

Pictures!











So I no longer have a functioning flash drive, so this post will serve two purposes: to show new pictures and to get them at school so I can work on them and make them look pretty and stuff.
