Audi TT Rig shots (with set up shots)

[DanFreemanPhoto]

So I had my first proper go with my new rig parts yesterday.

First up was a test shot on my Dad's cannel boat:

All seemed to go fine, so up next was the TT:

And for you guys who keep asking....here's some set ups, and a shot straight from the camera

Back into the swing of car photography now, all I need is some more cars and locations!!

Very, very awesome!

I hope those mounts are secure!

 

[Flat Eric]

Looks great that does.

Very secure! I am in the process of trying to get more length on the boom.

And the mounts didnt leave a single trace at all, probably because they have proper paint jobs and not cheapy weight saving paint like mine has lol!

 

[aucky]

Ohh so that's what did the damage.

 

[Revels]

Lol. I bet you were super paranoid about the paint this time!

Impressed with your cloning out of the rig too.

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

lol yeh a little. That's partly why I did it to my Dad's car first. I've done a lot of these shots in the past too, with no issues so I would have been surprised if anything had happened.

It's just sods law that I did it on my car when it was very hot

Gives a great effect, this scaffold pole lark.

Good work Mr F !

Lovely Dan

 

[Habitual]

Those are great shots - it's really interesting getting to see the before and after too. Amazing work in PP removing the rig.

Good work (like it needs to be said!)

 

[AK]

Glad you put the pre edited shot, I was wondering how it was done .

 

[Gally]

Stunning mate. Simply unreal PS work to take the rig out! Mental!

Lovely Dan

I'd love to do a VX vs Exige shot at some point in the future. I know a cracking place to do it too, although I'm always looking for better locations.

Happy to give you a shout when I'm over your way one weekend. I'd be very much up for that.

Edit - Still need to pop by and grab that undertray as well!

Nice work Dan! What camera settings are you using ? Slow shutter, with filters to get the full on motion effect ?

 

[v15ben]

Nice shots, Dan.
Favourite is the head on shot of the TT.

 

[Eddie.]

Fantastic mate.

Great work on the PS'ing too. Would love to get a rig like this, better than my static, photoshopped "rig" shots

 

[Kane.]

Great skills.

I think it was about f/11, 8 seconds....using a Lee Big Stopper and Hitech 0.9 Soft GND.

 

[Laura]

amazing, can i book you for when i get my next car!?

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Sure! Always looking for new cars and places to try.

*and as long as it's a VX220 too!

 

[Silent_Scone]

New meaning to wouldn't touch with a barge pole!

Shots look awesome! Did you not get any of yours in the end mate?

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

I didnt plan to shoot mine that day.

I'm planning something at a possibly good location on Friday evening. So just hoping the weather is kind!

 

[dunganick]

Really like this Dan, Always enjoy our rig shots and always enjoy the boring techy stuff behind the scenes!

 

[MattT]

Lovely shots Dan - have you ever had a play around with this software? Be interesting to see how realistic you could get it with your static shots v's your rolling ones.

I need to get back into my rig photography. Biggest problem for me though seems to be locations - driving around with a 10ft pole sticking out off your car kind of limits where you can drive safely.

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

^Yes I have and it only really works in certain situations I feel.

Locations is always the hardest part!

 

[Brazo]

Great shots and editing skillz!

I'm amazed you can get a stable platform for whats a heavy ff camera on the end of a long pole!
