On Wings: Rust Life

The Set: To tie together my creative work, film work for others, and a competition, I travelled to the Canberra brickworks and took a bunch of texture photos. After the production of the Local film, we plan to have a small creative hiatus and then we’ll be getting down to film a warped biomechanical fable about a man making himself wings from scrap metal, among other things. These were designed to capture the flesh and blood quality of metal and rust and to experiment with the atmosphere for this movie.

The Photo: The smashed in front of what was once a car, but what is now just a shell buried under a slab of concrete. I didn't think about it at the time, but what the hell was that car doing at the brickworks any way?

Texture: Feel free to use this for anything you want. It took five seconds to take the photo, but I'd still like to see the finished product of anything this is used in. Click download for larger.
