On Wings: Rust Row

The Set: To tie together my creative work, film work for others, and a competition, I travelled to the Canberra brickworks and took a bunch of texture photos. After the production of the Local film, we plan to have a small creative hiatus and then we’ll be getting down to film a warped biomechanical fable about a man making himself wings from scrap metal, among other things. These were designed to capture the flesh and blood quality of metal and rust and to experiment with the atmosphere for this movie.

The Photo: Another set of bolts and even more rust. I really liked the fact that the boiler, even though weather beaten and rusted, was still held strong by these bolts after so many years.

Texture: Feel free to use this for anything you want. It took five seconds to take the photo, but I'd still like to see the finished product of anything this is used in. Click download for larger.
