More Tilt Shift

Speaking of Stormtroopers… I saw this post on Gizmodo (via the Star Wars Blog) about some new tilt shift photos.  I wrote about tilt shift in an earlier post, but the idea is to make the subject of the photo look tiny by creating a narrow depth of field.  Photographing people dressed up like Stormtroopers and making them look like they’re action figures is an incredible idea!

When I was looking at the photos I noticed that the photo was filtered through TiltShiftMaker.com.  It looks like they’re using a filter to create the shallow depth of field created by the tilt shift lens adapter.  Upload a photo to their site and run it through the filter and your done.  I used a similar technique when I was creating the Background for the CarboTron animation.
