As I was driving through the city of Detroit after a meeting with my academic counselor, I was contemplating what my next project should deal with. I must admit that I could not come up with anything I would consider worthwhile. I am trying to keep the first few projects connected to social themes in Michigan, though I have a few ideas for the future, I had yet to plan a safe way of pursuing those photographs.
On my way home, I noticed several road blocks hampering my way. Into the distance I saw weird contraptions and what looked like Chinese flags and banners draped along the road, I also noticed armed men and armed military vehicles, and of course I do the obvious and park my car to see what’s going on.
As I walk closer to the scene there are an army of Chinese men walking around with assault rifles, this was obviously a movie shoot and it got me very excited! The movie being filmed was a remake of an 80’s cult hit “Red Dawn”. I wasn’t able to take many shots and had to be discreet with the pictures that I was able to take, I was told that it was a closed set and I wasn’t allowed to take any at all, but what I was able to take turned out pretty awesome, especially after my photoshop magic.
After an hour of watching movie making magic on the set of “Red Dawn” I jumped back into my car and noticed another movie being made about half a mile away. This was a shoot for “Master Class” a movie being filmed by Oscar winner Faye Dunaway. On this set I was able to convince some of the security guards that I was part of the crew; it’s amazing how much a man with an SLR camera can convince people that they belong there. This allowed me to take some amazing shots though still discreetly so I would not draw the attention of anyone who might have known better and be asked to leave. I did get some shots of the lead actor and actress (I really don’t know who they are) but the blog is a photography blog and not TMZ and since the pictures had no artistic value to them I won’t be posting them here, but if you would like to see them, just email me.
The first set of Images is of “Red Dawn” and the second set is of “Master Class”, enjoy!

Mate, why do you have every photo at a bloody angle?? It's not arty, it just damn annoying.
ReplyDeletewell, I guess you can avoid my blog than.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Carl too, its not artistic at all if every photo is that way.
ReplyDeleteWell if you guys read my first post when i started this blog you would see that this is my experimental photography blog, I'm gonna take a subject i want to refine my skill on and run with it, again, if you do not enjoy the pictures, there is no need for you to view my blog.
