[Cine Battle Music]
Welcome to Cine Battle!
I'm taking over because Lorenzo can't say his lines.
So this is the weekly series where I fight against Yannick
through a filmmaking challenge.
The last week we had to edit in the back of a car.
I was first driving off roads and then Yannick was driving off roads,
and then you guys had to choose who made the best edits.
-And the winner of previous week was…
Yannick, of course!
-Damn it!
-But today there's a new challenge.
You guys have to recreate a picture of a famous person, here you go,
and I also arranged the model for you, guys.
-Nice!
I can do this!
-You can’t Jordy, you got to do it blindfolded.
Jordy gets 5 minutes to remember all the gear we have,
all the settings of the camera and of course, to remember the picture.
[Music]
-Time to begin and win.
[Music]
-Jordy, what are you doing?
I forgot where I put the power chords.
-You know you can give instructions to Annabel, right?
Annabel can you hand me over the power chords?
Or better, can you power the lights?
This is a good tip, Lorenzo.
Annabel, can you make the picture for me?
[Music]
-Okay, now I'm done with setup.
-Yannick, I'm here.
-Okay, so I'm done with the setup.
Annabel, can you do your makeup yourself, or do you need my help?
[Music]
-Annabel, if the beauty mark is ugly, I'm sorry.
-I think this is the red lip gloss.
I think…
It could also be the eyeliner, we don't know.
-I’m ready with my setup and the makeup.
I’m gonna turn off the lights, but it's all the way over there.
-Jordy I smell you.
-No, Jordy, you can’t, go back, go back upstairs.
-Ah, this is out?
-All right, Annabel, the pose that you have to do
is you kinda have to grab your head like this,
open your mouth a little bit, something like that,
and also open your eyes.
Taylor Swift's hair is kind of blowing in the wind,
so that's why I'm gonna wave with this reflector right here,
to also do that.
However, I need to stand closer in order to do that,
because, from experience, I'm pretty sure that we're gonna need a lot of wind,
so I'm gonna try and set the camera to Timer mode.
I know that this dial right here puts the camera in Timer mode,
however I've got no idea how much the timer is currently set at.
And I also have no idea how to set it without seeing.
So, I'm just gonna try.
Alright, that's about, I don’t know, 7 seconds?
Here is my Cine Battle entry!
-So, we are going to take the picture now, let's hope it's good.
-3, 2, 1.
-Okay, I think I got it.
Now, let's edit the picture.
[Music]
We get a little bit more time in Photoshop to fine-tune the colors and the exposure,
I’m actually very happy with the results right here
and I'm also glad that I took multiple photos.
Because, as you can see, some of them kind of failed.
So, that's really good.
I also gave some more instructions to Annabel,
and that's why we have some different poses in here.
But I can definitely find a good one.
The only problem is that I shot it overexposed.
I thought actually that was underexposed.
But it appears to be that I'm overexposed, so that's a bummer.
And the shot is a little bit white as well, so I'm going to have to crop this in a lot
to match it with his photo.
-I finished with my photo but I did a stupid thing,
I didn't take multiple shots,
so now I'm stuck with one photo and it isn't focused.
But I'm hopeful, go Blue Team!
-So, thank you Annabelle for being here today.
I'm sorry that you almost did all of the work but I'll hope I'll see you again next time.
-The photos have been taken, but before we're gonna take a look at them,
a big shoutout to Squarespace.

But now…
…let’s have a look at the photos!
-So, we'll start with Yannick, how did it go?
-Not as good as I wanted, I only took one picture, that was my own mistake,
and then the picture wasn't in focus.
But let's open it up!
-Hahaha… it's something.
-Well, it's soft.
-It’s very soft.
-It has something.
You can say it's taken with a very old camera,
like the same camera that they used back in the day.
And that's what I'm going for.
-Okay, and Jordy, what is your result?
-Well… Taylor Swift, here we go!
Can't see the difference between this one and the real picture.
Yeah, I actually took multiple photos, it was overexposed, though,
So, also here the highlights are a bit overexposed,
but I was able to get it pretty well back with the RAW settings in Photoshop,
so actually it came out pretty good, I think.
I’m pretty happy with the results.
-So, both pictures look amazing but you guys can choose who won.
Is it Yannick, or is it Jordy?
