oh hi! this is out of the blue, but i've been hoping to get into watching ultraman, but i have no clue where to start. is it like kamen rider where each season is stand- alone? if so, do u have any seasons u recommend?
Oh yeah, basically. There’s like one where it has two seasons, and sometimes legacy characters are more relevant in some series than others, but if you’re fine either looking up lore or just Not Knowing (or, in my case, sometimes asking sundry) then you can roll with it. A lot of ultraman series takes place on alternate universes so sometimes ultraman is A New Concept and other times ultraman is Everybody’s Friend and other times ultraman is a cryptid
I haven’t watched a lot of ultra but I think the most accessible series to rider fans is Geed, and I’m also biased towards it because it’s my favorite lol. It has a couple of legacy characters but all you need to know is that belial is Evil and has beef with ultraman zero. the setting is a universe where belial almost Blew Everything Up but ultraman king sacrificed himself to glue the universe back together. the main character is an orphan who’s best friends with an alien that lives in his shadow. I think it does a great job of building a supporting cast and I really like the writing, there’s a couple of two-episode arcs that really grabbed me
I’ve also watched orb, which is another good standalone one. It’s good for people who like heated drama between men, though that mostly pays off at the end. In terms of series order, Z makes more… sense? has more context? if you watch orb first. So Z is somewhat less accessible but you can still watch it. But anyway Orb follows the main character who’s got like. A ronin cowboy vibe. And the supporting cast is a group of like, cryptid hunters? like tornado chasers but for kaiju.
Z and X focus on more of an ultra-host dynamic so if you like that kind of possession-adjacent dynamic. Z’s protagonist and ultra is very Jock-Brain, X’s protagonist is a scientist and ultra x is very earnest. It’s also the more traditional earth defense force setup.Oh also I forgot to say that tsupro is a lot more kinder to its western fanbase and basically all the series are available for purchase
Anyway mebius is the only earlier ultra I’ve watched, it’s an anniversary series that has references and guest stars from a lot of earlier series and I didn’t understand most of them but it still made me cry MULTIPLE times because The Weight Of Emotion. The protagonist is an ultra that LOVES earth and humanity and is very charming. Also if you were ever on deviantart sometime in the 2010s and earlier you have definitely seen one (1) shot from mebius. This is a good series to check out if you want more of The Classic Vibe of ultra and also a series that’s 50 episodes long
Oh I almost forgot, R/B is a really cute family focused series, I like the designs. Plus the main antagonist is really fun, she’s lived a long time so she’ll just drop quotes and go like ‘my friend arthur conan doyle said this to me’ ok lmao. Also the little sister turns into ultra in the movie :)
Blazar is the current ongoing series and it’s such a weird ultra lol. I wouldn’t necessarily rec starting with it because it takes away the impact of how WEIRD it is as an ultra but also watch it anyway it’s pretty good
I’ve been meaning to watch more and there’s a bunch of other folks who have watched more and could be a better tour guide. Actually recently I saw someone mention STARTING ultra with leo which is absolutely hysterical to me. sounds traumatic.

lost & found evaluation
1. the project theme was finding a location and photographing an object, creating a composite to combine the two. I thought it was a fun brief and although technically difficult I enjoyed it.
2. The part of the project I enjoyed most was theorising ideas.
3. New techniques I have experienced include using the dropshadow tool in Photoshop and creating masks/quick selects for composite layers.
4. A technique I would like to develop further is my ability to blend two images more seamlessly.
5. Photographers I researched through this project include Arthur Mebius, kerem ciğerci, Tarek El Emary and John Wilhelm.
6. Honestly I was most influenced by the example images the college provided for this project but for my personal research I couldn’t quite get that exact style of image.
7. The technique I enjoyed most was photographing my location to try to get the most thematically fitting background.
8. I feel the most successful part of my project is the background shot because it’s sharp with good natural lighting.
9. Problems I encountered in my project were trying to make the boat look like it was really there, I added a wake and shadow to try to increase its realness. I couldn’t figure out how to make it look more like it was in the water.
10. I learned from them in that I now understand photoshop’s drop shadow feature better.
11. Habits of the mind I used include, persisting, striving for accuracy, applying past knowledge to new situations.
12. Given the chance to complete the project again I’d remake the paper boat with a larger and more noticeable sail. I would use more tutor advice for blending the boat in with the water, improving its shadow and detail.
