Night-time in the city can be busy. Perfect. We like it that way. Lots of people. Hustle and bustle. Good company. And it's pretty busy outside the car as well." - The Volvo S40
I always wanted to try something like this and I did. It wasn't easy. But first, I would like to thank all the people who helped me out on this project. I'd like to thank my friends, and that crazy driver that nearly killed me during this shoot and my colleague whom helped me out on the digital imaging section.
I was supposedly to meet up with my friends during lunch time, but coincidently I was busy setting up my art piece at an exhibition and couldn't go no where. I was pretty disappointed that day. Not because I couldn;t hang out with my friends, but it was the only day that I could shoot this car. The Volvo belongs to a friend of mine who studies in another state, and only comes home once in a while. And so far off, she told me this was the last time she could drive this car, since she crashed the other S40, same model in brown. Her entire family loves Volvo, they have all the series. It's amazing, I've never came across anyone who loves Volvo so much.
So by the time I could meet up with them, it was about 6-7 plus at the evening and the light really failed my camera and I have no choice but to try something ground breaking. So I suggested to them about a night scene and soon I got an idea to shoot it at a bright car park near the place we all hanged out.
The shoot was pretty kicky, and we didnt ride as smooth as the BMW shoot. It was very difficult as the tunnels aren't as far as roads could be and there were humps and bumps every 50 meters. We drove around for about 15-20 minutes, since everyone was so inpatient. Hmm...
But anyways, I can't ask for more since I am asking for a good favour from them.
What really upsets me about this shot is that, the reflection is terrible and I forget to cover it up, I kind of hated the flare created by the beams. Will take note during my next shot.![]()
