Fluff diversion: High-contrast bandom pic/videospam
IT IS TIME FOR A FLUFF DIVERSION.
This post started out as a comment in
roga's past art class prompts. But then it got somewhat large, both in the sense that there are a bunch of things in it and in the sense that parts of it are layout-destroyingly large.
So here it is, as a post on its own, properly behind a cut tag and everything!
Uh, so high-contrast black and white photos are kind of a Thing of mine lately? Especially when they are of this one band...

(ESPECIALLY THIS ONE HOMG IAN)







BUT I DON'T ONLY HAVE PANIC. HERE, HAVE SOME JAMES MOTHERFUCKING DEWEES

OR SOME BOB FUCKING BRYAR

Actually the whole WTTBP video has some really effective use of contrast. Let's stop and watch it, although it will have to be this lyrics version because the official one doesn't allow embedding--WTAF?
BACK TO THOSE PARTICULAR DUDES FROM THAT ONE BAND, um, I totally think you should draw this one! But possibly not the best one to show to your class?

Actually in general whenever anyone says "high-contrast black & white" these days my brain jumps to our buddy Shane Valdes. Let's take a look at some of his work, shalllllllll we?
Like.... his video for "Kill Tonight" (at least I THINK it's his? I can't find attribution anywhere but it's very much his style)
And also "In the Days" from the Live in Chicago DVD
(Hey and also the COVER of Live in Chicago)

But he doesn't just do high-contrast black-white for Panic! He also does it for the Black Cards!
and Butch Walker! (ok, the contrast is just a little bit blown out here, hardly to the Valdes norm)
Also this dude.
Uh and this dude and his elephant friend? There are more black-and-sepia bits than black-and-white bits here but he still pushes the contrast way up. And from 2:20 on there's this OMG ALL THE CONTRAST I AM PLAYING WITH IT OMG section.

I will be honest one of the reasons I did not ask for a specifically Panic prompt is that I don't know if I can paint them for three hours without feeling totally embarrassed and grinning like an idiot and then showing the result to family and friends without flailing silently. SEE ALSO: your pics of Brendon. But I APPRECIATE THIS PICSPAM SO VERY MUCH *____*.
