    Something that I love most about this is that the snow cover paired with the image placement on the front cover reminds me of a composition notebook, which I think is really sweet. Gives this journal-type-feel but it is so subtle.

    Real OGs were here before Willem ever wore a beanie. ✊🏻 edit : 6:45 is brilliant.

    I live in northern Alaska where the winter is a lot like this but colder, sometimes it’s hard to be motivated to get out and shoot but seeing an outsider perspective on a similar location is definitely inspiring. Keep up the good work Willem!!

    that frozen boat shot is so dope man! also it is so good to hear that you managed to combine film and digital in one project. personally I am shooting both digital and film but I can see myself being a bit hesitant sometimes if I can combine both formats but you def inspired me to do so here!

  • @philipm3173
    @philipm3173 Před 4 lety

    Willem this looks incredible I will def be ordering one. Thanks for keeping me inspired with film, my darkroom class got ruined by quarantine but I just picked up some portra 160 yesterday and am renting a Mamiya C3 for the week, super hype to shoot my first medium format! Cheers

    Looks like Polar Night from Mark Mahaney. Oh and for the RZ I send my RB always to the last Dutch Mamiya service center and the guy told me once that the RZ's always jammed in the winters also there battery drained a lot. He gave me the tip to wind and shoot the shutter for about 5 min straight and if you have a RZ keep the battery in your pocket for a while to make it warm before shooting in the cold.

  • @digitaldrea

  • @AeonGotBeats
    @AeonGotBeats Před 4 lety +3

    why do photographers make the a big secret of who they print with? it would seem that directing potential business of 210,000 subscribers to your printer (esp if you're happy with their work) would be a great reason to disclose that. maybe i'm missing something, would love to hear the reasons why this is such a taboo.

  • @JeffSmudde
    @JeffSmudde Před 4 lety +47

    One thing that I've learned over time is that if you want the "film look" on digital, you really don't need to do much. People often consider that "film look" to be the way that expired or pushed film looks -- but if you want if to look like fresh, properly exposed film, there's very little that needs to be done to your digital photos. Also don't add grain. please, for the love of god, don't add grain to your digital photos (unless it's part of the idea/concept, then by all means go for it)

    • @zFLAVEz
      @zFLAVEz Před 4 lety +1

      I agree. A good image will shine through film or digital. It’s just a means to an end result.

    @Leeandthelens Před rokem

    I think the price there set at is more then enough if not enough because of the time and effort applied and the thought behind it and besides most books these days are that price so I think the zine speaks for itself
