Dialogue: 0,0:00:20.35,0:00:23.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,when I feel like I need some sort of,

Dialogue: 0,0:00:29.15,0:00:30.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I sometimes will just accept it,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:30.84,0:00:31.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because...
Dialogue: 0,0:00:31.97,0:00:33.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because I have a real deadline
Dialogue: 0,0:00:33.62,0:00:35.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to, y'know, to force me to get going.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:38.17,0:00:39.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It was through a friend of mine

Dialogue: 0,0:00:46.23,0:00:48.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I said, my sort of stipulation is,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:48.59,0:00:51.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as long as you can lend me the clothes for

Dialogue: 0,0:00:52.78,0:00:54.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I don't have that \Nkind of pressure that,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:54.90,0:00:57.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,like, normally, I think commercial\Nphotographers

Dialogue: 0,0:00:59.80,0:01:01.100,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I said, no, I need \Nthe clothes for longer,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:01.100,0:01:03.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and so they were totally cool with that.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:05.49,0:01:06.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I...
Dialogue: 0,0:01:06.62,0:01:08.69,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,wanted it to look like these are people
Dialogue: 0,0:01:08.69,0:01:13.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,who happen to be wearing Balenciaga\Nat, like, some groovy, y'know, parties.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:14.84,0:01:16.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Maybe they work in the fashion business,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:16.76,0:01:19.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,or maybe they would like to be working\Nin the fashion business.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:20.09,0:01:20.89,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I...
Dialogue: 0,0:01:21.12,0:01:22.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,was trying to, y'know, sort of
Dialogue: 0,0:01:23.01,0:01:25.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,make it look as if \Nthey're shot with flash.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:25.43,0:01:27.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The backgrounds are all digitally added
Dialogue: 0,0:01:27.33,0:01:30.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,with just shots of people in\Nrestaurants and bars.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:33.34,0:01:35.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And, yeah that was kind of what
Dialogue: 0,0:01:35.81,0:01:38.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,this series started out as,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:38.47,0:01:39.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and...
Dialogue: 0,0:01:40.99,0:01:42.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,then I subsequently
Dialogue: 0,0:01:42.89,0:01:44.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,blew up one of these large
Dialogue: 0,0:01:44.70,0:01:45.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to see how it would
Dialogue: 0,0:01:45.76,0:01:47.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,hold up as a work of art,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:48.95,0:01:51.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And it didn't look good \Nwith the backgrounds,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:51.39,0:01:52.45,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so...
Dialogue: 0,0:01:52.54,0:01:53.93,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so I wound up going back
Dialogue: 0,0:01:53.93,0:01:55.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and completely changing the backgrounds,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:55.84,0:01:56.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and they sort of,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:57.72,0:02:01.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,now have a new life as like,\Ndifferent sort of pictures.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:04.47,0:02:06.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Still somewhat as if they're from parties,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:06.95,0:02:09.25,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but even, in some cases, even more so,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:09.25,0:02:12.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because I added these flash effects.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:16.24,0:02:19.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And it was actually the first time I tried\Nshooting with the digital camera.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:19.87,0:02:21.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I borrowed a friend's camera,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:22.60,0:02:24.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I was kind of nervous about that, too.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:24.62,0:02:27.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now I'm suddenly experimenting \Nwith a digital camera,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:27.14,0:02:28.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I don't know how to use it,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:28.62,0:02:30.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and does it work the same with the lights?
Dialogue: 0,0:02:30.62,0:02:31.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And then I have to set it up
Dialogue: 0,0:02:31.95,0:02:33.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to look at my computer while I'm shooting,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:33.95,0:02:35.67,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and it was all kind of touch and go
Dialogue: 0,0:02:35.67,0:02:37.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in the beginning\Nand a little scary,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:37.34,0:02:38.45,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but, um...
Dialogue: 0,0:02:38.84,0:02:40.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but once I was into it,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:40.24,0:02:42.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it was just like, I'm a total convert.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:42.43,0:02:46.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I threw out all my film and I'm ready to \Nget rid of my cameras,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:46.58,0:02:47.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and, y'know, it's...
Dialogue: 0,0:02:48.69,0:02:50.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,like, I would just never go back to film.
