For my get pushed challenge from April @aecasey - I think I found something you haven't yet been challenged to ... Dutch Tilt ... Your challenge, then, is to use a dutch tilt to create a feeling of unease or disorientation (or any of the other reasons one uses dutch tilt).
I'm from Tulbagh, Western Cape, South Africa. Tulbagh is a small farming community.
Get Pushed Challenge: I have been doing this challenge on and off...
@maggiemae I had also wondered so I looked it up. There is a detailed explanation on Wikipedia. It's also know as Dutch angle, canted angle or oblique angle.
'In cinematography, the Dutch angle is one of many cinematic techniques often used to portray psychological uneasiness or tension in the subject being filmed.
Dutch refers to a bastardisation of the word Deutsch, the German word for "German". It is not related to the Dutch people or language. It originated in the First World War, as Navy blockades made the import (and export) of movies impossible.' - quoted from Wikipedia
Well done- it's tilted just the right way to make me feel as if I had just a little too much... even though I don't drink that often! I like the repetition of the chairs, umbrella bases and tables. Good shot and great use of the effect!
