Rejection of the result

Friends, even though METAMORPHOSES is finished, we're still sharing with you the details of the process. And today, it's time for perhaps our least favourite stage - rejection.

Rejection in METAMORPHOSES, as in any other similar project, cannot be avoided. Defect is everything that doesn't suit the author, even if the project looks fine to an outside observer.

For all the difficulties and laboriousness of the previous stages, we had to "throw away" the finished material.

There were different reasons for that: wrong body position, different from the rest of the characters; inaccurate head turning; accidental shadows that were not taken into account in the process; superfluous folds , or unnecessary wrinkles in clothes; clothes or accessories that we did not like in the frame or just worked badly in the light; we just did not like them on the level of feelings, without any obvious reasons.

Some characters had to be marked as defective altogether, while others partially, so that only some of the images are left of them.

Once, for example, an entire character went into the trash, as his turban was taller than the others. This prevented the composition of the frame the way we wanted it to be. Not only the footage, but also the ready-made turban, and all the accessories prepared for it, ended up in the trash.

At some point, we wanted to be less picky about ourselves and the quality. But the ruthless perfectionist living in us never agreed to this. No negotiations with him got results :)

We didn't do an exact calculation, but we can say with certainty that culling deprived us of 400-450 final images.

If we saw that repeating one shooting day would correct all the mistakes, we would set a new shooting day and re-shoot everything. Still, that was not always the case - there are characters who never came out.

Are you often dissatisfied with the results of your work, and ready to tear everything to shreds so that no one will ever see what you've "done"? 🙃
