On Wings: Shadow Play

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: Their chattering was the first to ring out, but that ceased as I approached and all that could be heard of them was the shuffling of small feet in the shadows. I wish I understood then, as I do now, who they were and how they would change me...
One of the tunnels to be used in the wings film. I used this photo to experiment with the contrast of light and shadow we're hoping to achieve.

Stock: 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.
