Cloud V.S Sephiroth

Description

This has been a long time coming and it's almost here.

This is a sample shot of the AX 2008 shoot with Lord Masamune (Sephiroth) and Einlanzer (Cloud) It took many months of preparation and planning to make possible but we did it. Einlanzer (Cloud) even went as far as constructing a new Advent Children collapsible sword eventhough he could very well have used his old non-collapsible one, but nooooo, he's an engineer at heart so he made a new one anyway. He seriously had a working prototype in just a few days. It was insane. (Yeah....he's awesome like that)

*Loooove ya Jake*

Lord Masamune didn't really have to do too much other than show up because he ALREADY had his epic-ness down to a precise science at that point. I'm very thankful to him for being kind enough to come on-board with this whole thing. He's a pretty busy gentleman and OMG....the nicest guy I've met in a long time. A comedian to the bone. The human being behind his great reputation completely overshadows it. Totally a pleasure to work with!

I, as a photographer, had to try to match them both in term of the proverbial "epicness". So I worked and conceptualized tirelessly (Einlanzer will tell ya) to attain both their levels of "awesome". If I attained even 1/8th of their awesomeness then I will have done my job well.

Now this pic was chosen for a reason, it's slightly blurred so from a purely technical standpoint, it's the weakest of the entire set in my opinion. However, the other ones.....well, you'll see them soon enough. Just the fact that it developed well at such a low shutter speed makes me happy.

*Does Mr. Burns' evil laugh*

So please stay tuned to my blog and also here on Dev-art (among other sites) for the long since pending photo set coming really soon (I promise)

yada yada yada.....ok I'll shut up now so you can enjoy the pic.

Thank you

-Alain
