Basically I wanted to create really actiony sword fighting scenes, reminiscent of street fighter, that's why the bg is the way it is. (Cause street fighter and mortal combat are placed in cityscapes or random contemporary areas) Let me know what you guys think of that. Also, one of the photos kind of has what I was originally going for. Basically, one is a still, another is the jump, and the other one is a movement shot/action shot. I wanted to capture the act of fighting. This is only one of the shots, the others weren't that good and the other ones turned out blank for some reason so I'm going to have to reshoot. Also, it only shows one area where the fight is at, for the other ones I want to turn it/show I want to show multiple areas of the plane with action shots. I also had some hand-to-hand combat, but those where one the same blank reel so I'm going to reshoot that too, but that's the plan. So yea... :)
I really like the pictures, the action is really great. I do feel like the background kind of gives the viewer the feeling of looking at some kids playing in their backyard, and I am not sure if that is what you were going for. It would be interesting to see what different backgrounds would do for the pictures.
ReplyDeleteI especially like the middle photo, where the boys are moving really quickly, it has a great sense of intense action.
Good work!!!! YAY!
Fun. Set consideration would really amp them up.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy the fighters and their actions. As said above, it needs some more care as far as the background goes. Yes it is in a street but it doesn't translate that it was deliberately chosen to convey your concept.
ReplyDeleteThe top one is by far my favorite. The flying guy's face is fantastic! But I feel the last image is out of place because it seems very staged and less believable compared to the other two.
ReplyDeleteThe action u captured is great but the background somewhat confuses the concept.
ReplyDeletei really like the top two rather than the last one because, of the blurry action that makes it look more real, like not posed
ReplyDeleteI think the top one is my favorite because while there is motion blur, there is enough image information to understand what is going on. The same cannot be said of the second image on its own. Also, I would recommend cropping the air conditioning unit out of the photos if at all possible.
ReplyDeleteI feel like the top one is the strongest the other two just have a little too much blur for me. I would turn up the contrast and or expose them longer since i do not see any true blacks.
