I love classic films. I love films in general. I love setting scenes up and most of all I love taking an idea from my little brain, seeing it when i shoot it, like its my little secret that only i know, and then creating it.
When i shoot, people only have the confusing rambling words i manage to spill from my pie hole to draw from. Mostly its just "I have no idea what Jase is on about". This might be one of those images. When i shot with my good friend of many years, Jonathon Carter Schall recently, i was thrilled to have the day to shoot. He's one of the most photogenic people I know. This image had been in my mind for awhile, so thought i would share the fun part. I started with a public domain LIFE magazine image taken in the early 1940's of a random market on a random small town street. Pretty good chance this place doesnt even exist anymore.
Then, the image I shot of Jonathon:
Then the very tedious bit..getting rid of the nonsense
And then, my favorite part...the final image
All of this because i had this stuck in my head from the moment I saw the first image. That was the place where the final shot of the film occurs, right before you fade out to black..the hero on that street...TADA!
hey I said "Mildly Amusing"..not uproariously awesome..heh
