Another shot from the same music video I used in my November free study.
Me n' some buddies spent three days making a music video. This is the musician and the director, Sean.
This day was one of those days when everything you do is perfect and everyone on the team is enthused and trying crazy stuff cause it's working and it's just plain fun.

Interesting shot. The pistol adds a level of seriousness to the image. Interesting that he's using a typewriter (looks like an electric one) rather than a computer. And, of course, the nod to the drink of the world - coffee (or at least a coffee cup). I like that this is cropped so his nose and eyes are not visible, which makes it a much more generic shot than if it showed a full face.
I'm not quite sure what to make of this. Old typewriter, old suit... new coffee cup (and too clean!) and I don't know much about guns at all but that looks plastic-y. I know that this image is trying to tell me a story, I think it's about 'suits' making policies that are forced on the majority, but I'm not sure if it pulls it off convincingly. I'll stop rambling now...
I'm not entirely sure that nutcases writing manifestos wear a coat and tie but it gives it an interesting noir aspect. I do like the typewriter. That does seem fitting to non-geek manifesto-writing types.
Interesting set-up, makes me curious as to what's going on here; I can't fathom it out but I like it. Nice tones and lighting, I don't normally care for a through-the-face crop but it works here.
Not bad, but the focus seems a bit off, I would have it on his hands or mouth rather than on the coffee cup. Also, I like the dim lighting coming from what I assume is a window, but a bit of fill lighting, for the gun and the right side of the typewriter would have been better.
