The ideas and designs behind the new DarkDaze @ Garage Studios shoot.
March 30, 2009
So I have included some sketches and the inspiration behind the new shoot from last week at Garage Studios. It has a lot of why I came up with the idea, what its about, although not the story behind the shot, you have to work that out yourselves, and may give you an idea about what goes into a shoot like this. If your looking from college or work, please note that the DD blog isnt always entirely ‘safe-for-work’ but its up to you…. Tomorrow we, the GS team, should have some great behind the scenes images shot by Vickeh, and some more Strobist and technical info, including what Matt and Tash brought to the shoot, and general bits of interest. We kinda hope that instead of finding them a bit boring these posts will inspire you to see that you dont need huge budgets and weeks to pull off work like this, just a bit of imagination and dedication.
We are even thinking of running a course like this if anyones interested, loosely based around the idea, that a group of students, come up with an idea, sketches, sets and over a few workshops construct a shoot from start to finish, on any theme, using our experience along the way. We have a great team here and have a feeling it could be a really different kind of course. If you are interested just drop as an email at
Now here is the link to my blog, remember theres a little bit of flesh on display for those with sensitive eyes… or computers in the middle of the office …
