American photographer Aaron Hobson has created a series of his latest works, which he calls Cinemascapes, never picking up a camera. Instead, he created a sense of loneliness and translating isolation from civilization, landscapes, accounting and processing of images from the panoramic photo editor Google Street View.
As a photographer said in an interview with Spiegel, the idea of using images from the service of street panoramas from Google came to him when he was looking for places to shoot the film in Los Angeles. He spent hours to make virtual walk around an unfamiliar city ( Hobson himself from the East USA from Pennsylvania ) and was struck by the fact that panoramic Street View Google has photographed virtually every nook and cranny.
Photographer found that in many countries through the Google Street View you can see not only the life of the developed cities, and slums, small historic towns, abandoned houses in the woods and just tens of kilometers of uninhabited tundra or the desert.
In terms of technology ' photos ', panoramas cut from Google, is not very sophisticated. However, Hobson found the camera angles and lighting to match his creative aesthetic and evolved into a kind of narrative about solitude and beautiful place where life is hard and flows more slowly than in large cities.
