HDR - Images

Hey Guys a While ago

I went out to take some HDR - Image's

Maybe some of you are familiar with it ....

if not ... Don't worry .. read on

It is a photo with 3 or 5 Different exposure's that you

have to take with a Tripod and when you done ..

open in Photoshop and join these images Together...

and do some Post-Production to get a that grunge look.

Now to the Photoshop part ...

Open Photoshop go to File > Automate >

Photomerge > Import Images > select a layout (Auto)

> tick of the box at the bottom witch says

( Blend Images Together ) > OK .

Photoshop has now combined the Images

and you can start doing some Post - production on it .

f

Try to work in Image >

Adjustments and use some Filter ..

Thanks Guy's if you have any question

just leave a comment...

URS-PRODUCTIONS..

URs Productions, a small 3D animation and Visual Effects company

based in Germany´s media city Cologne, was set up by Arvid Schneider

in 2008. Since then URs Productions produced and directed

several music videos, product presentations and short films.

Arvid Schneider entered the 3D animation and Visual Effects

field in 2003 and worked mostly as a freelancer on low- and no-budget

productions. He met an African musician called

EES for whom Arvid directed and produced

two music videos, 123 ees-y and What Dey Fighting For?.

The short film called

A different point of view

was Arvid´s first animated short film, which he produced for his final

examination for his Film&Animation diploma. Arvid started to work for a

production company called Cape Cross GmbH as a visual effects

assistant in 2007. After a year he realized he had to start something on his

own, and in winter 2008 URs Productions was founded.

URs Productions is currently working on several projects, “Vault”, “

Unnatural” and a product presentation for which his skills are needed.

THE HELICOPTER PILOT

THE HELICOPTER PILOT

Model ( Stefan Mechaelis ) asked me to take

some shots of him while he was flying his choppa,

so he could use those images for his CV and I got a free

Helicopter Ride ... Sometimes I think you have a great live

as a photographer you get to meet new people all the

time and sometimes you even get lucky and score a flight.

HEHE... I tryed to make a Panoramic pic out of the choppa

While we where flying and yes I think it looks ok !

After we landed somewhere in a lost area I took a shoot

of stefan flying past me and right after that he just

landed right an front of me " Where I thought SH.@!!

he is so close he is going to chop of my head ...

But lucky I just drop onto the ground

and took some nice shoots there " !!!

Weel but Overall Big Thanks

again Stefan for that Flight I did realy Enjoy Flying With u !!!

As you can see on my face Expression ... hehehe

The Butterfly Effect

THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT

Gothic Shoot - CD Cover

This Theme is not so Typical my Style but

I enjoyed working on a Project like this and I think as a

good Photographer you should have the skill to do anything.

I Photographed the forest in early morning while the fog was still

hang in it .. and placed the model in with photoshop.

On This Image we used

One Flash Light straight at the subject and a good work

in Photoshop added some Textures and red eye Effect .

Tanks to the Crew and Makeup Artist [ Sylvia Eichhoff ] and

Model [ Mona Tingaete ]

Glenfiddich Whiskey

Glenfiddich Whiskey - So strong it will break your Glass .

I used a big Black sheet With a kind of Triangle cut out

to get the light in this shape .. used a normal whiskey glass

and made it look Broken in Photoshop..

Hehe yes I did think of braking the glass

and then shoot it ,but how will do

something like that braking a expensive whiskey glass..

is not worth it.. so Once again Photoshop played a big roll.

Playstation - Boys

Crazy Playstation Players it is all about Wining The Football

Game..If you think you are wining, you are lossing it stay

focused and play ..Hate The player not the game .

I used a good setup with some strip lights on the left and right

side and some front lighting to lighten up there faces a

bit we used a green geel on the light to creat a

greenish effect That Normaly comes from the

tv screen ...

Thanks to the models Kieth Deutsch and Zaid Ely

Fresh - Beer - Camelthorn Brewing

One of the Finest Namibian beers Brewed with a passion.

CAMELTHORN BREWING... I was asked to do some Nice

product shots of the Camelthorn Beer FRESH .. again i used my

Black sheet with the triangle and some Orange light brushes in

Photoshop to create that flyby look . The Bottle reflections

came with a glossy bottom.

The Cocaine Dealer

Anti - Drug - Campine -STOP - DRUGS

The Cocaine Dealer on his new mission to bring his cocaine

into our homes ! This Images was also photographed for

the ANTI-DRUG-BOOK to let addictive People see what controlled there lives.. and get a message to wake up and relays that it is not worth it to take these drugs.. Again I used a 2-Light setup and a big reflector to bring some front lighting onto the model and worked a lot in photoshop to give it a grunge effect and make the models skin look very bad.. because that is what cocaine does !!!!!

Thanks to Model ( Helgo Lange).
