We Built This City

The following series of photos, I decide to turn into a little short unprofessionally edited video. Instead of just a normal set, I decide to turn the photos into tilt-shift but due to the fact that I’m poor and don’t own such lens, I have to fake it all through photoshop. Here’s the end result.

What do you think? The photos was shot, edited and made into a movie over a period of 3 months. But if you were to calculate the hours spend, I only spend an hour each week I work on the photos. Hopefully I’ll be able to capture some using a proper tilt-shift lens and compare the result between one that is photoshopped and one that is straight off the camera.

    tilt shift photography! now that’s some nice stuff! :D i think if you saturate the pictures even more to make the yellows more like painted yellow to make them more fake, then they’ll really look like toys :D

    good job!!
