Inside The Studio

Ever since I started reading The Selby's photoblog I wandered what HIS house would look like. Now Style.com has done a short video going into his studio. It may not be his house but it is just as good!

It is def. a good interview, his studio is messy and an amazing creative space, filled with those little things he likes to look for in other people's houses!

Oh Todd, you do not look wanky at all!

Nostalgia

Yesterday I went to see A Single Man. I had been waiting to see it forever but due to a series of events it never seemed to work out; but yesterday it did.

The truth is I'm still in the A-Single-Man-Cloud, and I know it seems like I'm exaggerating, but the film is fantastic. Every single detail has been taken care off, the fact that the camera does not produce a digital and sharp image but has instead a bit of grain, like the old 35mm cameras, sets a scene and an ambiance that transports you back to that precise moment. The camera work is brilliant, the angles and shots are really interesting and combined with Tom Ford's aesthetics, the film never seems to be slow, even when nothing is happening you feel like there are so many things to admire that you don’t even notice the lack of action. The slight hints of humor are enough to stop the movie from falling into a dark, depressive spiral yet maintain the sober tone of the movie. The way in which the sounds are overlapped make you more aware of all the images you are seeing. Tom Ford’s love of the beautiful is shown in every bit of the movie, from the aesthetics of the props and the wardrobe to the close ups and post production. And, to put the cherry on perfection, Jon Kortajarena has a small part in it, and we all know how I feel about Jon…

I want her hair

Everything screams Tom Ford. I want a Tom Ford production stamp on my life.

By now everyone knows I've always wanted to be hippie, a groupie, to live the 60s and 70s to their finest and the movie only emphasized it more. The hair, the make up, the clothes, the furniture, the cars, the manners, the words, groovy, the colours, the music, the noise, the air...

How can I feel nostalgic for a time I’ve never lived?

Testing Manual Camera

I've started my photography lessons at Parsons, but I wanted to test my Dad's manual camera so that I wouldn't look like an absolut fool.

Here's the result:
