It was inspired by the Film show on the Framed Network (esp. episode 7) and by the outstanding Artxas here on FM.
Although I will post a stack of the photos here, the project is intended to be viewed as a video (3.5 minutes) as that keeps them in some kind of better order and has music. The video files are here:
In both cases High Definition versions are available in the settings.
Between the two of us, we did the location scouting, styling etc. Nobody else was involved. The shoot took a little over two hours. Megan was fantastic.
All editing was done in Snapseed for Windows. No photoshop etc.
I have a stack of other ideas both series and individual shots and would love to do something like this for a singer or fashion designer etc. I think it works well as a video but also potentially as a set of magazine shots.
We would LOVE to know what you think. This kind of planned shoot is completely new for me.
Hey Ian. I like the effort in taking an idea through to completion. I can see the heavy blacks as being inspired by Albert.
Looking quickly through them, I felt there were a lot of similar photos that didn't progress the story. The large number of photos is probably leading to lot of looks but not too many comments.

Wonderful, I really enjoyed this. I often find photo editorials too brief and miss conveying an intelligible story. You've gone the opposite direction, and yes, perhaps it could be edited down a tad, but I think you've made a valid creative choice. Thanks for posting.
