Album Photoshoot

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Album Photoshoot

Postby Neeper on Wed Nov 02, 2005 10:36 am

I haven't been around much. I've been busy practicing and getting more work!!! I am now working on a new project with a local hip hop artist. He's not famous yet, but this guy is starbound. I was doing shots for his album. These 2 are what I would like to use for his album. If you can, ignore the text on the first one. I put that stuff there to see how it would come up, it's kind of looks weird, and will probably be revised. But, I think these images are winners.

I like the second photo, but the first I think the mic hides too much of his face. The second one, is he playing a harmonica? That's what it looks like but if he was he'd be the first harmonica playing hip hop artist I've ever seen!

I dont' mind hip hop, but I'm over all the gun slinging, drug dealing talk. Then again MASEs new album gets tiring really quickly because all he talks about is money. I don't know what this guy talks about, but with a song titled "know your hoes" i feel it might be more of the same.

Anyway, I like what you've done with the photos, especially the colour treatment you've given them.

I like both pics - I have always been a fan of black and white for album covers :D

Neeper they are both great images but I like the first, its a great take that really has you focussing in on the eyes quite powerful. Terrific image and particularly suited to b&W.
cheers
