Here is Booooooom Project #6! Pixel Portraits! Throw on one of your favourite movies. Pause it. Pull out your camera (make sure the flash is off). Snap a portrait of one of the actors (depending on your shutter speed you may need to try several times before you get one without a dark bar moving across the image).
Upload your photo using the form below! Make sure you include your name but don’t worry about including the movie title or character’s name, part of the fun will be everyone else trying to guess. Once there are several submissions I will post the gallery and the guessing game can begin.
I don’t want screenshots from a computer, I want portraits shot with a camera in all their pixelated glory!
Do you know the title of this movie? The character’s name? (Bonus points awarded if you know the line of dialogue.)
“This year I set myself a challenge: Take a brand new photo each day. Beginning with 14mm, each day I zoom the lens by 1 millimeter and force myself to use that focal length to shoot and post a photo before going to sleep that night. This will continue every day until I reach the end of the 1mm lens adjustments at 400mm.” – Chris Hornbecker
Chris is now at 387mm so he doesn’t have much further to go! His dedication to this project and quality of his work is inspiring.

There is a spectacular installation by Universal Everything over at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London. “Forever is a large videowall installation of endless animations responding to an ever changing soundtrack. The bespoke generative design system at the heart of Forever will spawn unique audio-visual films every day, forever.”
Keith Davis Young has been posting photos over on our Flickr Group for awhile now. Enjoy.
