Oh my God - Will, Congratulations. Obviously I haven't watched it yet because it's just gone up, but I know how much work goes into making a long-format film. I've been a happy passenger on your KZbin journey for a few years and have watched everything as it comes up online. I know you've mentioned this undertaking in the past. Can't wait to see it - not sure when time will allow a proper sit-down - so I wanted to send preliminary congrats on its publication. Best wishes from London! :D

Outstanding work, William. Seeing the process and the results was amazing. Could not help but think of Stephen Shore's road trip that became Uncommon Places when seeing the breadth of your images. That is high praise, sir. One last observation. The images of the three boys with the wire toys instantly struck me as a modern interpretation of August Sanders's Three Young Farmers. Again, high praise for making such varied and interesting photos. Looking forward to seeing a book in the future.

Thank you so so much. Truly honored to have some of the images evoke those comparisons for you. Also really appreciate the note on the Sander image because I don't think I'd ever seen that one before but being able to refer to it now is super useful. Amazing how things like that can happen and have similarities to scenes from so long ago hey, the magic of photography I guess! This is most certainly the highest praise I could hope for, and I really really appreciate the kind words and useful references.

Thanks so much Ryan! Really glad I decided to do an option with the longer lens haha, the Mamiya 7 is great and all but sometimes things feel better when you get a bit of a closer view of them. The sheep were originally right on the line of the fence but they wandered away as I approached so the 250mm on the RB managed to get the shot I wanted haha. Such a great scene to be able to layer like that, and so glad you enjoy it!

Thankfully a cool cat called David gave me some advice on narratives and scripts and that got me on track. The process was definitely a lil bit more than I bargained for initially though lol!

Amazing Will, watched the whole thing. Stunning images and storytelling. Finding sense of home is an interesting topic for many of us especially with the vast moving around and globalisation now. My parents were born in Kenya, grandparent from Tanzania but we descend from North India. And I was born in the UK. Something I'm keen to explore more around too. The portraits at 1:31:46 and 1:39:20 are just incredible! Question: I really like how you compose and the rendering from the still life scenes like 1:31:59, 1:32:10, 49:10, 46:30. What lens on the RB do you typically use for this? I'm looking at similar pentax 67 lenses but think I may need some extension tubes to minimise the close focusing distance
@willysheepskin
@willysheepskin Күн бұрын
Thanks so much for taking the time Shanil! Your heritage sounds like it would be fascinating to explore! Tanzania is where I'll head next once I wrap up this project I reckon since that's where I grew up haha! It's well worth looking into things like this, there's a lot to be learnt from where one comes from I reckon! So glad you like those portraits, really happy with how they turned out! With regards to those still lifes, all of them were shot with my 90mm RB67 lens, and I think the majority of the ones you mention are also lit with my flash. The flash has a lot to do with the rendering since the Octabox creates maaarvellous light, but yes you might need extension tubes with the 67 to get similar close focus to some of them since it's minimum focus distance isn't the closest. I used one for a video I'll put out soon and actually really enjoyed it! Hope the lighting breakdown can be of use for some of your questions too, thanks so much for the support!

Firstly, great video! Subbed and looking forward to watching the rest! Can I ask your opinion on something? What is the difference between 'making a picture' and 'taking aa picture'? Hearing people say making a picture a fair bit these days.
@willysheepskin
@willysheepskin 2 күн бұрын
Thanks a ton Jamie! I dunno if there's really a difference technically, I think making a picture kind of leans more into acknowledging that there's an element of the presence of the photographer being there as part the scene, where as taking is more of the scene already existing and someone taking something out of it. I guess in that way street photography would feel more like taking and fashion would feel more like making. I use them interchangeably but if I had to guess I'd say there could be an element of that interpretation involved in it haha! Cheers!

1:03:34 Try new batteries. Could be voltage sag as they get old under-exposing shots. That said I don't trust my Mamiya 6 meter at all and tend to do it all externally. If you're ever back in the UK you can try carrying my even more heavy cameras around the coast and I'll give you and dev some slide film sheets.

Yep I'm gonna chuck new batteries in it and see if that sorts it, weird though cus I actually didn't even use the built in meter for a lot of the shots and just metered with the Sekonic and things were still a bit dim. I'll get to the bottom of it though hopefully haha! I will most certainly be taking you up on that if I'm ever back in the UK, need to get large format buff ahah!

@@willysheepskin it was really inspiring, if I had the time I would’ve happily watched it all in one sitting. I want to explore the Scottish highlands and make work up there where people talk Gaelic, where I’m from we weren’t taught it because the uk government wanted Scotland anglicised in education and I’ve always felt robbed of my own native language.
