Here’s another on-location video for you. This time I’m traveling far into the field, deep into the wilderness. It’s an expedition so grand that it would make Sir Ernest Shackleton himself quiver in his boots.
Nah, I’m just going to Anaheim.
You may know Anaheim as the home to Disneyland and the Mighty Ducks, but I know it as a place with a cool-looking tire shop where I made a RU-vid video about taking pictures with my 6x17 camera. And hey here comes a spoiler alert. Seriously, don’t read any further if you want your surprises un-spoiled in this video. Are you ready? Okay here goes. I shot it on CineStill 800T film. teehee I know! So exciting! Before this outing, I’d never shot CineStill before. It was an experience. A learning experience, no doubt. But I am happy with the results. It’s a fun film to use.
Now I of course shot it on Kodak Portra 400, too. I’m comfortable with that film and I didn’t want to blow this shoot trying something new - especially on a film that costs fourteen bucks a roll. Portra was kind of my failsafe here. So on top of watching me descend into madness trying to make this composition happen, you’ll also get to see these 2 films compared. So you know, a fun time was had by all!
The camera you see me using in this video is a Shen Hao TFC 617-A with a Rodenstock 115mm lens. I use this combo A LOT for my “architectural” work. And I put “architectural” in quotes because I don’t really consider these types of photos architectural. They’re more like my slow, tripod-based attempt at street photography. Okay I know it’s not “street” photography as we all know it, but I guess I consider it some sort of hybrid between architectural, landscape, and street photography. I need to come up with a name for it.
Anyway, thanks for watching!

“I’m not sure this film works on anything other than gas stations at night.” These on location videos are so entertaining!

A @Matt Day and @Nick Carver video on the same day? And about Large Format ? Wearing hats? More proof that they are the same person. :)

@Anon54387 3 года назад

@@nickcarverphoto Hiya, Nick, a question from someone not familiar with filming for movies. You mentioned that reciprocity is not encountered in a movie camera. Is that simply because they run 24 frames a second through them and thus there is no prolonged exposure time? Have you considered, if you want to block a streetlight out, making a blind that can hook over those thumb screws on your camera so you don't have to tie up a hand holding it? Also, it'll reduce the chance you might shake the camera during a timed exposure. You were concerned that the piece of plastic blinding the streetlight might show up in the photo. If you had it mounted rather than hand held you could look through the view finder to verify it isn't. Just a thought.

@Anon54387 3 года назад

@@nickcarverphoto Great photo, and those two tires standing on their treads by the bay door farthest from the street add that little something that makes it even more interesting.

@spamsponge 3 года назад

So I was getting new tires the other day, and there's this road worker in the median making survey measurements. The weird thing is that there was no guy with the stick to be found. I thought the guy was up to no good. I got closer but then it was clear that he had a toothpick in his mouth. I immediately retreated.

@mariomelillo3770 3 года назад

@RandyPollock 3 года назад

The cut to you with your head on the steering wheel is what true photographers look like many more times than I like to admit...Job well done getting the shot!

@timrb 3 года назад

I like the way the CineStill give a bit of a slight sickly green tint to the fluro lights rather than the warm cast the Portra gives. The shot feels more sunlit with the Portra whereas the Cinestill is more "hey, look at this shop, it's not natural!" and I love that juxtaposition.

@kathyjurgens7153 3 года назад

And we loved just the trace of red from the halation... It couldn't make up for the neon signs being off, but it still managed to add that nice bit of red.

@tomhath8413 3 года назад

I expect fluorescent lights to look kind of green in a picture. What I grew up with.

@PMCN53 3 года назад

I know the frustration...I once went to a location (sunrise over an ocean pool with glassy water in the pool. Always had some crazy person swimming laps in the middle of winter. I went 10 times to get that particular shot. The 10th time I was just expecting the same as the other times,....BUT, this time there was no one there, the conditions were perfect, I was so excited to finally get the shot. Patience and persistence is often a requirement.

@angryanimaldoc 3 года назад

I like the failure parts. Most youtubers just post the successful situation. Seeing you fail, while comical, is actually informative. I drove by a place 2x a week for a year before I made the image. Granted it was on my way to work and I only work 2 days a week, but still.

@jokesNgiggles 3 года назад

@sks1213 3 года назад

I pass by an old Firestone garage almost 3 times a week. I can confirm, that those neon signs at dusk are glorious ! And, there is a railway across from that location. I might snap a picture or two soon.

@justins2151 3 года назад

These videos can always help me destress. Everything about these location videos is so serene to me, I'll come back to them several times if I need to wind down after a rough day. Maybe it's the pacing, no over the top and unnecessary high-energy edits, just slow and serene like the pics. Thanks Nick!

@Patrickthe1st 3 года назад

The most entertaining photography video i've watched to be honest.

@ryanehoward 3 года назад

First of all I love these videos. I GREATLY appreciate that you show the frustrations of shooting on location. As for Cinestill vs Portra. That's a tough one. The Cinestill looks more lonesome and desolate with the cooler tones. The portrait evokes a place that while not exactly welcoming at least wasn't abandoned by people, if that makes sense.

@mlk4343 3 года назад

Nick Carver, you are the man! :-) I am your big fan from up north 🇨🇦 Loving all your videos - I often rewatch them just for my viewing pleasure! I must confess - they inspired me to get out and enjoy photography again! And by the way - sometimes I use the safety vest as well!!! :))) And oh gosh... how I understand your frustration when things don't align perfectly for the shot... but oh boy how it is satisfying when things come together!

@andrewhowarth4578 3 года назад

Wonderful example of why we put effort into our images. Personally I like the Cinestill version a wee bit more. But it's more about the process than the result, which is the reason we shoot film. Andy

@jaytolbert7538 3 года назад

Just yesterday was thinking, "It's been a while since seeing Nick." And here you are! Turned a miserable, rainy day (week) in the PNW into a great escape.

"Leaks Light Diagnosis 50 years". Man what a sign! I just chuckle all the way through your vids and love what you do. Great result, like the eerie mood of the cinestill and think the cooler tones suit the scene more. STill love Portra 400 though :)

@Pastenes 3 года назад

You need an online merch store that includes items such as reflective vests and toothpicks 😁. Great video.

@kathyjurgens7153 3 года назад

We settled in together on the sofa and put our feet up, ready to sit back and enjoy. And we did. And, since I've not seen anyone else say it here, we love the music, the bit with the fire, all of it.

@NiallEveritt 3 года назад

This is my favourite photography youtube channel by a country mile. Nick is calm and collected opposed to how most hosts are screaming in your face and paranoid you have the attention span of a mosquito. The fact that Nick also shows the whole process - the skill, knowledge, technical expertise and patience you need to make great art - is a gift. Thanks for sharing this with us Nick. You're a true master!

@DanFox 3 года назад

You ditched the toothpick too early! 🤣 Great video! Your persistence is an inspiration.

@edmontonian5270 3 года назад

Great commentary on this one. I enjoyed hanging out with 4am Nick. Juuuuuuuuust a little more manic than you usually present yourself ;-) I think I prefer the Portra image in this one - for what it's worth.

@kapurar 3 года назад

@AnyM4jorDude 3 года назад

I'm drawn to the coldness of the Cinestill photos. It accentuates the loneliness and independence of an early shift life. The pink halo is an awesome contrast for the cool fluorescence lighting. I thought you were going to swallow the toothpick on a few occasions.

Welcome back Nick. Great image and lovely composition. I was going to say that you should've moved the camera a little to the right so that the "T" in "TIRE" was fully visible but then the tree would've blocked the windshield of the bus.
