Hanna

Yes, yes, I know this is a photography class, but you must see this movie. The cinematography, & editing alone are of an aesthetic I don't often see, particularly in more mainstream movies. This aesthetic captured my attention from the minute the movie started. For lack of a better word at the moment, it was beautiful. The score is a plus too & fits perfectly with the film in every way. Everything was very cohesive.

Saw this on msn.com and thought it was pretty cool.....

Claire Sloan

As I was looking for inspiration for this assignment I came across Claire Sloan's photo series called sleep for days. I fell in love with them, and they have really inspired me to try something like this for our assignment. Hopefully they inspire you too :) Check out her website!!

Ed van der Elsken

He did mostly black and white, but a little bit of color. All of which are fascinating.

You can google his name and get an amazing array of images, or here is a site dedicated to his work.

Inspiration

Here is a website that might help with some inspiration for night photography that I came across.

James Welling

James Welling, born in 1951 and raised in Hartford, Connecticut, employs a variety of photography techniques to create his images. He experiments with shutterless cameras, polaroids, large format view cameras, and digital techniques, to create artwork that tests the boundaries of photography technically and conceptually. The above images are from his "Glass House" series from 2006, which was commissioned by New York Magazine for an article about Phillip Johnson. They were created by using a variety of color filters and manipulated plexiglass in order to create the effects seen in the photographs.
