Frozen In Time Berlin by Lars Brandt Stisen

     Frozen in Time Berlin is a series of 3D photographs capturing the people and sights of Berlin in multi-layered photos that makes parts of each layer stand out more than the background. These images are created with a specialist camera that Lars custom made himself using parts of other film cameras produced between 1968 and 1988 and gives the photographs deeper historical meaning as well as the photograph itself. Stisen was born in Denmark and is now based in central Berlin after studying at Aros Art School in Denmark. He now specialises in advertising, fashion and editorial photography. Before photography, Stisen went through jobs such as product design and engineering, freelance software development, musician and stage producer but ultimately ended up persuing photography as a career.
    The 3D pictures have been put in to a specialised gallery and classic Red and Cyan 3D glasses must be worn to get the full effect of the photograph with all of the layers.
    I like these images as they are very well exposed on film and the multiple layers to make certain parts of the image pop out of the background further.

Research - Paul Harries.

     Paul Harries is an Essex born music photographer that has worked for popular rock music magazine Kerrang! for 20 years and has one of the most extensive portfolios of rock icons including Black Sabbath singer Ozzy Osbourne, nine piece band Slipknot and Guns n Roses guitarist Slash.
     Growing up in the 80's, Harries spent his nights hanging around the Marquee on Wardour Street photographing the bands such as Fields Of the Nephilim that had been playing there that night. Eventually he gave up his 9 to 5 job to persue his career in photography that has grew to be one of the largest and most famous photographers among the rock world.
     Harriers has a professional set of studio equipment that includes a 21 Megapixel Canon 5D MKII, a Canon 24mm-70mm and 16mm-35mm lens as well as Bowens lighting and soft boxes.
     I chose to research Harries as he has great experience with music photography and that is what I want to experiment with by trying to reproduce the MTV Unplugged album cover that has a person playing an acoustic guitar against a dark background and lights illuminating certain areas. Looking at Harries work has given me ideas on lighting and location which is what I was looking for.
