Keep It Light "Film Inspiration"


This weeks Keep It Light Photo Collective project was to draw inspiration from cinema and create an image or series of images. Nick & I Teamed up for this one as we both love Michael Mann's Epic Masterpiece HEAT. The opening scene is visually a perfect way to set the tone for the rest of the film. A Master of location scouting, Mann always shows off LA in a way that really reflects someone who loves it and knows it well. I scouted a location here in Seattle I thought was similar to the opening scene of the film and I love our results. These two were my favorite from our series. For anyone who hasnt seen the film, I'd highly recommend it. A rare movie that actually ties together action, love, suspense, and drama seamlessly.
