Instagram

Ever since downloading Instagram on a trip to Ohio , I've been addicted to it. I love how simple and easy it is to use. You find someone that interests  you just follow them and you get an insight on there life through photos ONLY. All the junk is left out just simple and clean photo uploads. I went through my feed today and grabbed some on my photos that caught my eye and that got some "likes" on my instagram feed.
If you're on Instragram search me under "tyleroxendine" and give me a follow!


All images were taken with my iPhone


Many more photos after the jump.....

24 Hour Film Festival | Knoxville, TN

You have 24 hours to create , film, edit, and produce a video. Those are the "simple" rules to the Knoxville 24 Hour Film Festival (K24HFF ). This was my first year participating in the festival and it was such an amazing event. The kick off parties, screenings, networking, and the final showing was such a great experience to be involved with! This festival is filled with creative minds and a sense of humor that can not be compared. This will not be the last time I partake in such a innovative event. The only twist to this film festival is that they give you three secret ingredients that they don't tell you until the kick off time (7:00pm).

 

This year the ingredients were:
1. Have the sun sphere in one shot
2.Have a remote control in a shot
3. Use the line "I'll never forget the first time I went to jail"

 

I teamed up with RendMedia and our shooting began at 7pm and ended around 3am.  I have always had an interest in videography and  I was super stoked to do a little filming and audio Dave Moore finished up editing and submitted the the film with 20 minutes to spare.

 

Then came the screening and awards the following week: Pictures and video after the jump....

Video Game Addiction

I had to photograph and compose a photo illustration for a recent school assignment. I choose to illustrate people who stay up all night or day playing video games and looking kind of "zoned out".

I included some behind the scenes photos on how the image was made and how it was lit after the jump...

Started out with a B800 boomed over the subject inside of a octobox

I then set up a 2nd B800 camera left with a 20 degree grid pointed at the subjects face

Then added a 3rd B800 camera right with a 30 degree grid pointed at the subjects body to add a bit of fill light

I then photographed a clock to add into the photo to simulate time around the subject. For that I just photographed my clock than changed the hour up once, photographed, changed the hour up, photographed, etc......

Street photos 4/08/2011 | Knoxville, Tn

Went out on Friday with friend and fellow photographer Travis Green out and around Knoxville to just chat and grab some coffee. We decided to bring the cameras and just walk around looking for some inspiration and just snap a couple photos.

More photos after the jump....

Travis decided to with his new 300mm 2.8
