5 Days To Go & I Need Ideas!

85 Comments By Rick Nunn

I have 5 days left on my 365! Really really not long at all, and I am very aware of how mediocre my recent photos have been. So I want to end my 365 with a bang! I’d love to end with a Quoto, so what I need are some ideas. I need good (short) quotes from the end of films, or from good bye scenes, or from books, films, comics, tv shows, anything as long as it’s good and can be translated into a photo.

But wait! There’s more! If you pick something I use I’ll send you a print of a photo of your choice, so get involved!

If you haven’t seen any of my Quotos yet here are the ones I have done so far:

#308 ~ Psycho Boy *Explored*

#233 ~ James Howlett *Explored*

#230 ~ Everybody Be Cool *Explored*

So what are you waiting for! HELP ME OUT!

Update 31st December – So I didn’t end up finishing my 365 on a Quoto, it just didn’t feel right & I wasn’t going to sacrifice the quality of my Quoto set just to get something out the door.

P.S. I was going to use Phil’s Usual Suspect quote, but now I’m not & he doesn’t get a print, so instead I’m gunna give him a massive snog!

lol I sometimes do setup shots (check my sets) but tonight I was shooting out on the harsh streets of Lincoln, with my tripoded camera, lighting, & my MacBook Pro balanced on a chair. I kinda just wanted to get it done and packed away. Plus the Xbox was calling me too :P

Great idea and nicely executed :)

I think this would make a great project in itself, let alone Project50 – it could be different photos w/ movie captions added on. What d’ya think?

Thanks Sam, of course I don’t mind the add.

Ashley, who isn’t a fan of your face?

Thanks James, the second in the series is being shot tomorrow. :)

Rick Nunn

Woot, glad you are all liking it.

MashupDesigns, I have done 2 others, but I don’t want to rush them. You’ll get more when I do more :P

12 Angry Men is a wicked film and my favourite scene is where one of the jurors says:

Listen to me. This kid on trial here… his type, well, don’t you know about them? There’s a, there’s a danger there. These people are dangerous, they’re wild. Listen to me!

Maybe you can use it maybe you can’t! But I like your face!

Quote ideas….

Fight Club : “I am Jack’s complete lack of surprise”

Ferris Bueller : “Ferris Bueller, you’re my hero”

Ferris Bueller : “You’re still here? It’s over. Go home. Go.”

Phil

Anything from Training Day…

Alonzo: “King Kong aint got *shit* on me!”
—
Alonzo: “This shit’s chess, it ain’t checkers”
—
Alonzo: “They build jails ’cause of me”
—
Alonzo: “I run shit here! Y’all just live here!”
—
etc etc – you get the idea.

What about Arnold Schwarzenegger’s “I’ll be back!” for the last photo. You’re always going to be taking brilliant photos so it kinda leaves it open for future projects.

or take inspiration from movies where the bad guy dies at the end, but in the final seconds opens their eye/eyes to leave it open for a sequel.

Phil Barker

“The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist. And like that, he’s gone.” The Usual Suspects (1995)

Marti

How about ending on something softer…

You Got Mail:

Frank: What about you, is there someone else?
Kathleen Kelly: No. No, but… but there’s the dream of someone else

LOL… of course I don’t think you’ll go that direction so how about….

A Knight’s Tale:

Adhemar: You have been weighed, you have been measured, and you have been found wanting. In what world could you possibly beat me?

Dune:

What do you despise? By this are you truly known.

Amy Elizabeth

“These violent delights have violent ends
And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
Which, as they kiss, consume.”
– Romeo and Juliet, Act II, Scene VI

(BUT PHIL’S IS AWESOME!)

Toby Howarth

Training Day as mentioned is awesome and has loads of great quotes.

Shawshank has some great ones too like

Red: [narrating] “Andy Dufresne – who crawled through a river of shit and came out clean on the other side. ”

Andy Dufresne: Get busy living, or get busy dying.

Andy Dufresne: She was beautiful. God I loved her. I just didn’t know how to show it, that’s all. I killed her, Red. I didn’t pull the trigger, but I drove her away. And that’s why she died, because of me.

Also Leon has some good shit like

Mathilda: Leon, what exactly do you do for a living?
Léon: [Leon] Cleaner.
Mathilda: You mean you’re a hit man?
Léon: [reluctantly] Yeah.
Mathilda: Cool.

Last but not least from Die Hard “Why Don’t you wake up and smell what your shovelling” but not sure how you would work that, maybe some farm action lol

[http://www.flickr.com/photos/mathiaslaustrup] Why would you ask a question like this on a photo thats a year and a half old?

Mathias Laustrup

[http://www.flickr.com/photos/ricknunn] I just saw the description and thought the light setup sounded tricky. Does it really matter?

Rick Nunn

[http://www.flickr.com/photos/mathiaslaustrup] Just seems strange, it’s an old photo with a simple lighting setup. I have more recent stuff that is done in a similar way, why would you not talk to me about something current? Or pop me a flickr mail. Just seems like a strange way to do it.

Mathias Laustrup

[http://www.flickr.com/photos/ricknunn] I just looked through your photos and really liked the lightning in this one. Didnt really notice the date, sorry :)

Rick Nunn

[http://www.flickr.com/photos/mathiaslaustrup] ok , yeah basically just learnt from trying shit out. Looked at other lighting in photos and tried to do something similar.

Get Involved!
