hey guys!, just wanna share this frame study I did from a movie called "memoir of a geisha" try to limit myself in working with time constraint but got caught up in spending to much time on the face, really learn a lot in this study in terms of composition, I really recommend trying it. let me know what you guys think about it :)
Really strong study! You've nailed the values and colors
Nice! I do one movie frame study a week myself, it is really great practice. I would say that the bush behind her left shoulder is a little too sharp at the moment but its easy to miss things in timed studies like this, I do it myself all the time. I aim for 2-4 hours, sometime it comes easy other times I get stuck in overtime, usually on likeness - though depending on what in particular you are trying to study i.e. overall value composition, details like that are unnecessary anyway. Here's my last one;
wow that's a very nice painting you really nailed the likeness, but yeah, looking back I really miss a lot of things but at the same time I'm trying not to get stuck on those little details, but I think you're right those sharp bushes is a little bit distracting since it's much closer to her face, it's fighting for attention. thanks for pointing that out :)
This is great and sounds like a great way of practicing composition! It looks pretty accurate to me, but I think if you pushed the left (as a viewer) side of her face and eye a little darker and gave the same eye a brighter highlight it might draw the attention a little more - yours is just slightly lighter. Definitely going to copy this idea 😁
You have really captured the depth of space in your scene. It has believable light and volume.
