My Visual Design class at Columbia gave me a couple rolls of film for an assignment. I loosely paid attention to the assignment as I shot this random stuff instead. Here’s the first roll. 35mm slides<\/a>, fall of 2009.<\/p>\n

Shooting on slide film seemed harder than usual–I don’t know if these rolls were extra sensitive or what. Granted, if there was an issue, it was almost certainly a user issue, not a tool issue. I was still figuring this stuff out, I was doing all kinds of crazy stuff during art school, and I wasn’t exactly putting my full attention into this. Back then I didn’t even know what putting my full attention into something even meant!<\/p>\n

The assignment was something very basic, where one slide had to show depth of field, another had to show a plain uniform image, another had to show high contrast in lights, and on and on, stuff like that. I don’t remember what all the requirements were but I do remember half-assing a lot of them and trying to get away with many by finding random stuff that barely fit in my dorm, despite the low light.<\/p>\n

So some of these things are in my dorm, or in my friend Claire’s dorm, along with her roommate Caslon and their other friend Phil. I don’t remember if Claire and I were in this class together or not but we were in other film classes, so she knew what was up.<\/p>\n

The outside shots are around Grant Park and surrounding roadways, all taken in a day or two. Love the trees and the trains. Nothing against Grant Park but it was THE place that EVERYONE at Columbia went to shoot EVERYTHING, so looking back, I do wish I had gone even a little out of my way. That’s something I should take to heart now, though, too.<\/p>\n

Aren’t you excited to see what’s on the other roll of slide film for this class? Oh boy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
