How Could I Forget...

Two Page Spread

I've not yet mentioned on my blog that I'd broken my ankle and required surgery. I'm okay, but as a result, I had fallen behind a bit in school, particularly in my print class, as all of my appointments were scheduled Tuesdays, my print class day.

Thankfully, I have a most understanding professor in that course, so I will be submitting my final in the coming weeks. My second last assignment however, was to create a two page spread, as a sort of rough layout to start the final, which will be a 12 page (plus cover) magazine that we chose a topic for. I've chosen Trent Reznor.

...making me need to learn the technique. Not just for film, but photography also.

Unfortunately, on my student budget of nothing I have to settle with simulating it; I can't afford to buy a lens, much less one to rig into a tilt shift lens (see the Youtube link for a how to).

So, just for fun, it was off to the creative commons on good old Flickr.

The shot's look better from above, to give the miniature model illusion more credibility.

Here's the original and manipulate versions:
