Sabbatical #12: Retro — Description
This outfit is super tough to work with, but I love it on her, and I love retro styles. I want to do a materials pass on it and refresh everything, and maybe make this work in retro color shots (which I have never done for this one).

I have this backstory going on with this series about a 1950's film-studio sort of never knowing what they are doing and making campy sci-fi films. I love the story and it is a fun part of this series that I would love to revisit someday. Everything I do with her is 'found footage' and you get this sense of peeking in on something larger that you would love to see in its entirety, but like the past, we only see disjointed glimpses of what was and you have to fill in the rest with your imagination. There are also lots of technical glitches and strange workarounds the crew does to make everything work it the viewers' minds.

It is all sort of like 3d art, I know; and yes, the parallels are intended.

Moreso, it is just supposed to be fun and funny, stupid and silly, and parody a lot of what we do but show a lot of respect. It is also a tribute to that complicated yet simple time which we will never know everything about and that fades away with each passing year.
