thinking

im debating on whether or not i want to go through with my current idea.
after taking some sample panoramic photos, and working with the photomerge tool in photoshop, im starting to see a lot of problems i am going to run into with my idea. right now im in the brainstorming process and asking myself exactly what i want to accomplish with the panoramic idea. there's definitely a chance for a change in concept. by next week i will know for sure if it's one or the other.

  5. Good luck with all the brainstorming and problem solving. :) I can understand how this would be a really challenging idea, especially if you're working alone.

  6. I applaud your dedication to picking a topic that you feel comfortable photographing. Sometimes taking panoramic images is hard. From what I have heard there seems to be specialized cameras that take panoramic photos. It may be hard to do if you don’t have the right technology.

  10. Your idea reminds me of flip books I had to create for commercial art classes. I am looking forward to the scenes.

  11. For this, I am not so sure that a seamless image is necessary, unless it just looks totally off, I do not think you should abandon it totally. I agree that some strangeness will make it unique and give it character. Like people.

    I do however trust your judgment--but do not let the push for perfection skew your ideas of what could possibly add to the image.

  14. I don't think it'd be the end of the world is the panoramic photo was all patchy and not seamless... I mean i think the lines and divisions created would be visually interesting.... plus the large scale will give you some cool points. don't give up so easily...
