day 93 - getting the band back together



honestly, this was way more trouble than i thought it would be. it probably took me a half hour to set up the lighting, and an hour in photoshop to get in there and mask everything out so it looks seamless.

that said, it looks pretty good, i think. definitely makes you do a bit of a double take. i'm actually in there four times.... there's another me sleeping next to tako, but singing me is blocking the view of sleeping me.

i know this is just opening the door for a lot of "why are you always playing with yourself, tim?" type innuendo, but i don't care.

i wanted to try this because i have a band photoshoot coming up in a month or so, and i wanted to see if this was a good idea.... shoot everyone separately, then collage together a piece that has the best picture of each of them individually.

it's a good idea, and i think it would definitely yield superior results to just get everyone together and try to catch a moment where they all look good...... but i wouldn't want to do it like this, where everyone's close to each other. it'd be a much easier photoshop job if there was more room in between the different members of the band.

that's it.
