Nokia Photoshoot
I was contacted by Nokia to produce a photoshoot using just their newest phone. We had a breakdancer in a boxing ring and a couple of up and coming basketball players at an inside and outside basketball court.
Finding the right locations was tricky. We wanted colourful walls not the regular dull breeze block walls you usually get in a sports venue. It took a while but eventually we found the perfect locations.
I am used to using high speed flash to freeze movement in dark dingy locations and on set. Using a phone meant I couldn’t use flash. We hired in several tv lighting rigs to light the scene. And then went to work with the stack of phones I had at my disposal. It was really really hard working with a phone instead of my usual camera. A camera phone isn’t as quick as there is a delay after you press the shutter so timing was everything.
It was certainly an interesting shoot…
