The background is The Negev power station, photo-realistic, Kodak Gold 400, 35mm film, subtle light leak, natural lighting, realistic high detail, photorealistic, ultra-detailed, symmetry, center frame, realistic high detail







Photo Filter
A simple filter process allows for various non-conforming images to be treated in a consistent and unique manner.
The filter adds a new level of grain and noise to image again denoting a sense of a ‘copy of a copy’ playing into reconstruction narrative prevalent in the SNC visual identity.
This filter can be executed using the Photoshop action provided.
