Why Your Projects Look Worse Than They Really Are | Chris Ellison
Stop rushing your photos and start making your gear look as good as it actually is. Cinematographer and maker Chris Ellison breaks down how to think about composition, environment, and presentation so your projects hit differently the moment people see them.
In This Episode, We Cover:
- Why most maker photos fall flat—and the simple shift that instantly improves them
- How to use environment, framing, and depth to make your gear the clear focal point
- Practical tricks like stuffing, shaping, and staging your bags so they photograph clean and intentional
- How real-world use, travel, and feedback loops shape better design (and better visuals) over time
Listen in and start taking photos (and making gear) that actually do your work justice.
