See all Show me
A ton of digital photos, a ton of real life magazines, an hour of recording music.

Unfortunately I cannot provide an exact list of photographers being responsible for the photography in the fist place. I found some of the photography on the web, in Foundations That's Life and in skateboard magazines such as Limited Skateboarding Magazine, Monster Skateboard Magazine and Place Magazine. Thanks to everyone who made this little video possible!

Monster Skateboard Magazine:
- Fabian Lang by Eric Mirbach
- Jake Johnson by Jon Mehring
- Jan Hofer by Mikendo
- Lance Mountain by Ray Zimmermann
- Stephan Guenther by Eric Mirbach
- Jean Feil

Place Magazine:
- Lem Villemin by Flo Renner
- Manny Santiago by Joe Krolick
- Niklas Speer by Kappeln by Adam Sello
- Thomas Weber by Daniel Wagner
- Enrique Lorenzo by Roger Ferrero
- Sven Kilchenmann by Lukas Mäder
- Valerie Rosomako by Henrik Biemer

    Entschuldige, aber sich aller Bildmaterialien anderer Fotografen zu bedienen und das nicht mal in den Credits zu würdigen ist mehr als schwach. Es wäre gut wenn du das noch änderst. Remix/ Plagiat/ Mix... aber bitte mit Quellen Angabe. Oder bist du der Bruder der Helene Hegelmann?
  • Tilman Singer plus 1 year ago
    Deine Kritik ist berechtigt! Leider habe ich die meisten der alten Skateboardzeitschriften nicht mehr, bzw. habe einige Fotografien lose von Bekannten erhalten. Ehrlich gesagt habe ich nicht darüber nachgedacht, mich genau nach den Fotografen zu informieren, ist dieses Video ja nur ein kleines, eigenständiges Projekt.
    Allerdings ist mein Video als eine Hommage an alle Menschen, die diesen Sport so interessant machen, ob Fotograf oder Fahrer, zu verstehen. Ich denke, das wird schnell klar. Wichtig ist hier noch, dass ich mit dieser Geschichte kein Geld verdiene. Wenn du Fotografen wiedererkennst, würde ich mich freuen sie angemessen zu würdigen.

    That was awesome! How did you exactly do it? I might have an idea but not sure? I would love to know seen I go to school for vfx and motion graphics. THANKS I enjoyed that!
  • Tilman Singer plus 1 year ago
    Thank you. Well, I took some pre-existing photographs cut out the figures and arranged them new in self-made spots.
  • Richard C 1 year ago
    did you use green screen and time lapse?
  • Ian Page-Echols plus 1 year ago
    If you pick up a skate magazine, they have images that are a big photo with several shots merged together. The photographer took a wide shot of the scene and got as many shots as they could get while the person was in the air, and then photo collaged the images together into one shot with, say, ten images of the person in the process of doing the trick. Then they were cut out and this video was made.

    I like it. Very cool style. I like the addition of the semi-blurry depth of field shots. Would have been much simpler and less good looking without that.
  • Richard C 1 year ago
    I understand all that put how did they make the sequences link together doing the tricks because you dont see a hand or string or anything did they just place each sequence forward and filmed a still shot of it? Thanks for the reply.
  • Alex Onfire 1 year ago
    They all have individual stands that you cant see or are hard to see because they are white. Look carefully and you'll see what I'm talking about.

    geile sache...
    aber haste ev ma daran gedacht die "störenden" (also die teile, welche den skater am boden festkleben) papierteile blau anzumalen und dann wegzukeyen?
    dann sind die weitaus weniger sichtbar und das ganze wirkt noch geiler
  • Tilman Singer plus 1 year ago
    Vielen dank!
    Ich weiß was du mit störenden Teilen meinst und anfänglich habe ich auch versucht diese zu verstecken. Irgendwann haben sie mir ganz gut gefallen, weil ich gemerkt habe, dass die Bewegung trotzdem funktioniert. Gleichzeitig trägt es viel zur Bastel-Ästhetik bei.
