「Newness(新しさ)」
この作品は、スタイリスト Amalia Dobreが最近の撮影でモデル Victoria Avramと出会い、彼女が数日後に香港に発つことを知ったのがきっかけ。
偶然にも写真家 Codruț Sebastian Neguțが同時期に香港に向かう予定だったため、皆でルーマニアのブカレストで待ち合わせをし、一緒に計画を立てました。
そしてAmaliaに複数のスタイリングを組んでもらい、他の荷物と一緒に詰めて香港へ出発。
到着後はZoomでフィッティングを行い、ロケハンを兼ねて街を散策し、その流れで3日間で合計9本のフィルムを撮影しました。
Amalia Dobre met Victoria Avram at a recent photo shoot, and found out that Victoria was leaving for Hong Kong in a couple of days.
Coincidentally, Codruț Sebastian Neguț was heading to Hong Kong during the same period, so we all met up in Bucharest and planned to work together.
Amalia styled several outfits, and we packed them up with the rest of the luggage.
After we arrived in Hong Kong, we did the fitting on Zoom, scouted locations while also exploring the city.
So we went with the flow and shot a total of nine rolls of films over the course of three days.
The inspiration was newness.
A new location, the styling, a new way of working.
Both absorbing and projecting the whirlwind experience of Hong Kong.
Since we were in new, unknown territory, we decided to explore and think on our feet, approaching the shoots step-by-step.
As with most of our projects we aim to draw distinct layers between our visual and written stories because of what we get in the end.
The final story ultimately must always include something that makes us, and the viewers, curious.
