We are taking along some print outs of inspiration, mainly a shoot with model Anja Rubik. I will also be taking along all of the images from the above gallery on my iPhone, this will enable me to draw inspiration from a wide range of images, and suggest poses if there is need to change things up. This is an important part of my role as Art Director on shoots, as I need to be thinking about poses and scenarios that we can move onto whilst Vaida is shooting the current pose.

Arrive in Norwich to pick up Vaida, Tom (Assistant) and Reda (model): 12pm
Depart from Norwich: 12:30pm

Art Direction Role:

• Checking reference imagery to keep the shoot on track
• Checking what shots we have and suggesting different shots to show the dress at different angles
• Talking with Vaida whilst shooting to change model’s pose/expression
• Keep an eye on details that may cause a problem is post production

Here are a couple of short videos from the day to illustrate the sort of conversation that Vaida and I have in our roles as photographer and art director.
