Ooh Yeah

Tajana Gregorsanec is a director from Calgary. There was a recent music video competition for Moby's track "Ooh Yeah", which she entered. She needed a prop flyer to be used in the film, which I created. The base image is a photograph I took in the Berri-UQAM metro station, of the wall tiles and one of the lighting fixtures.

Her video wasn't selected to be the official one, but I have a feeling that Moby himself didn't come up with the idea for a contest, and it was really his PR people that decided to get a lot of work for free. But that's another issue entirely.

A spur-of-the-moment still life experiment that happened while helping prepare dinner at V & K's place. I wish my apartment had the amount of natural light they get, because I had planned on taking more food pictures to learn about that niche of photography. Unfortunately, my apartment only gets incidental light, and barely any at that.

I tried buying some fluorescent light tubes, but they were from Rona, and both proved to be a bit dodgy in quality. They've since been returned, but I'd still be up for buying a good under-cabinet fixture or two to use for makeshift tabletop photography.
