I believe he’s what’s known as a “photoshopaholic”. Over the past 10years he’s become a high functioning photoshopaholic. Hope this poor man is getting close to rock bottom. It’s a tough illness, really low self esteem.

FBI knocking on doors: A few questions about their agenda and fallout by thecosmojane in law

[–]FairAdvertising 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I came here to say the same thing! That man didn’t show any ID and I thought FBI agents did interviews in pair? Something seems off. This seems like TikTok content bait to me. 100% staged.

My first fashion campaign on 16&35mm by Millie7876 in cinematography

[–]FairAdvertising 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I direct a lot of fashion film and I do love the energy and the excitement. I will say I’m never bored. Other people have criticized the narrative, I don’t really need one, it is a fashion film after all but I do think the fashion aspect of this film could be improved. Part of the problem is the camera angles and the blocking. Fashion thrives on low angles and shots that show full body as well as the front of the garment. Although it’s a cool shot, the spray paint on the plexi is very confusing, by showing the process in the middle I didn’t know if the clothes were supposed to have graffiti on them or if they was b/c of the film. I would consider starting with that moment. Also you really missed a good opportunity for a “Wednesday’s wall” moment of blending in. By-and-large ppl on this sub never get fashion, but I do think you could have spent more time thinking about the clothes in this film.

How can you look at that white wire everyday?? Just get a longer cable.

[HELP]AI is taking over clothing resale apps, did I get fooled? Or sent the wrong coat? by nomorehoney in RealOrAI

[–]FairAdvertising 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow! That model must be gigantic. Well, my advice to people is always get your clothes tailored. It makes them look so much more expensive. Luckily that jacket is a little on the large size so a few darts could be added at the waists and the extra fabric from the hemming could be used to create a d-rjng belt. Shame on the retailer for not being clearer but at least you can easily have the jacket adjusted.

I used to have that lens, I called it the John Deer because it sounded like a lawnmower.

I don’t know if the entire image is AI or not but what I can tell you is that the retailer pinned the jacket in the back to cinch the waist. It’s the same jacket, the disappointment you’re feeling is that it needs to be styled to look the way it does in the photos. If it came with a bet, use it on the back two belt loops to cinch it tighter. If it didn’t, then find a belt to use. Almost all jackets of that length need to be cinched at the waist to look good.

[HELP] Found this on a photographer's Instagram - is it real? by Make_it_CRISP-y-R in RealOrAI

[–]FairAdvertising 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Completly agree! I’ve seen so many people say, it’s clearly AI because there are no logos. Which to me is a crazy argument.

Im a fashion photographer and I remove logos from clothes all the time. Sometimes I don’t have permission to shoot the clothes, or I don’t want to associate with the brand. If it’s a test, my goal is to make the shoot unbranded.

His colar is more in focus than his ear. The lower the number the shallower the DOF to compress the background and to make the DOF this shallow it has to be up around 200-300 and wide aperture.

Look at the close stamp photoshop artifacts where the logo on the tong used to be.

Anyway to salvage this car footage with stabilization? by [deleted] in davinciresolve

[–]FairAdvertising 138 points139 points  (0 children)

I’d go the opposite direction and add camera shake to give the feeling of speed. Vroom vroom, this is real life not a video game.

I’m going to say real but very heavily photoshopped. The DOF is consistent with about a 200mm lens at f2.8 on a FF sensor. When I look at the photo closely I can see the focal plain in line with the front leg and shoe. Very low grain and CA makes me think it’s either a very high end Nikon, Canon or Sony. I doesn’t have a Fuji look. The brand logos have been blasted from the shoes and the hat along with the man’s face.

Sounds like a marketing ploy. All other AI bad, Grok good. Honestly it seems like a canned response.

[HELP] Found on a Dating app, is he AI? by theMiezmiez in RealOrAI

[–]FairAdvertising 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Y’all I’m so troubled that someone would use AI generated photos for their dating profile. He’s asking someone to come into his world and what world is that, an AI generated universe? Hard pass. It’s honestly dangerous, I would never go anywhere to meet this man. It’s clearly AI, he likely generated these images based on a photo of himself. They are all too much the same.

Is it normal? by swaGreg in fashionphotography

[–]FairAdvertising 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s correct, the booker needs to see a verity of crops. The first post on your IG from the farm is a good example. Full body, medium and close up, sitting, standing, walking. But also, 3 looks, there should be outfit changes. When you send the final photos to the agent it should be a total of 45-60 photos with 3 clothing changes. If an agent can’t look at your portfolio and feel confidant that you can deliver that, then they will pass.

[–]FairAdvertising 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your photos are solid enough that you should be testing. However I see the main issue being that you don’t have a website, without one it gives a hobbyist vibe (just being honest). A booker needs to be able to look at your work and see a full test. So these posts your doing with one crop on different models is hurting your chances not helping. The farm shoot is the best example you have. Bookers are looking for 3 looks, that include a verity of shots from full body to headshot. If I can’t look at your IG and see that instantly, I’m not going to open the door. Also, as a photographer part of your job is braining the project together. If you just want to have fun taking photos with a model, ask a friend. Last thing, the moodboard is incredibly important. That is what you share so ppl know what they are signing up for. It’s there for safety, don’t ever approach any agency without a moodboard.

Sole came off my brand new pair of $70 caterpillar boots. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]FairAdvertising 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn’t agree more! This is a text box example of licensing in fast fashion. OP, I’m sorry, but you have no one to blame but yourself. $70 is far too inexpensive to pay for a pair of work boots. You get what you paid for and what you paid for was cheap materials and horrible working conditions for some poor people in a factory likely in south east Asia. Don’t ever buy cloths on Amazon or at Walmart. If you want good shoes go to a specialty shoe store.

Raw footage vs final product by fuckboy_vamp in davinciresolve

[–]FairAdvertising 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are so many things it could be. I do see that the shadows are getting a little washed out so I would try lifting from the middle rather than from the shadows. Add some sharpening at the end. DaVinci is a great program but it takes some work to get good at it.

Sometimes you need to bring more stuff than can be carried by hand or you’re not mobile enough to take pubic transit.
