2. Paris Short Cuts
11 months ago
This is a short selection and editing of the first shots I did with the HV20. Shot in april/may 2008 at Paris. I lived one year in the heart of the city in a colocation, and it was for me a great occasion to remember it through this short edit.
Postproduced with CS3, all shot graded and "maked up" in After.
Music by Gustavo Santaolalla for 21 grams OST

    Very nice shots and very nice choice of music
    Excellent use of blur and zoom. Points of view are nice and clever.
    I feel a long experience of photography. Thanks for sharing this jewel.

    Translation in french cause my english is not so good :)
    De très belles images et un très bon choix de musique pour les accompagner.
    Excellente utilisation du flou et du zoom. Les points de vue sont aussi très léchés.
    On sent une bonne expérience de la photographie, non ? En tout cas, bravo et merci d'avoir partagé ce petit bijou.

    Wow, this is awesome.
    I love the use of light in some of the shots and as tifredic said, blur and zoom is used well. I love the shot peaking round at the Eiffel Tower.
    It all has a very professional music video feel to it.
    Very well done!!

    Congratulations. You seem to have the sensibility to see awesome things, poetic things, in the little things that surround us all the time. I think this images are an example of the raw material from which ideas, scripts, stories... should be made. Beautiful.
