spreadss






I don't know why there is this weird color change on the bottom third of each spread, but the individual page jpgs dont have that. and also, this isnt the order i want for the book, it's such a bitch to rearrange images on this thing.

due to the weather this weekend i wasn't able to roam sunset like i planned. but i worked on my spreads and worked with whatever pictures i had, although it's obvious i need more. so one last quick trip to sunset and i'll be set. i took some screen shots of the spreads i have and i'll bring in the rest on wednesday.

picturessss of the motels i went to. nothing so insightful. i asked one of the receptionists if he could describe in one word what it was like to work at this motel what would it be and he said "fabulous". And i got another good shot of this dog sitting at the receptionist window with no body seeming to be around.

hey guys. i went to sunset with christian yesterday and went to a bunch of motels and hotels with no luck on being able to shoot the receptionists with the exception of one awesome guy. So i dropped the idea of that and started thinking of what else I could focus on. hallways, interior, etc. got a few shots but nothing so inspiring. I'll post a few shots tomorrow night after class.

alright so here's what i'm going to do by next week:

go to sunset and try to go to at least 5 different motels/hotels, scope out lobbies, receptionists, maybe rooms if i am able to.
printed rough layout of spread
and i think after i go to the motels my thesis will have some solidity to it so i'll get back to you guys on that.


hey guys, sorry for the late post. went to sunset on sunday during the day this time and took pictures of hotels and just some random shots that could be used in a different part of the book if anyone wants it. i have more pictures i'll show during class. see you guys in a bit!

hey guys. i'm planning on going to sunset tomorrow and taking pictures of the motels. I also still want to do visual energy, but besides bouncing lights or whatever, what else could i capture? peoples expressions? sound somehow? any ideas? thanks.
