Loved your Berlin polaroid set — would love to collaborate on a neon test shoot.
Mon
Thanks for connecting! Always happy to meet people who care about the craft. What are you working on right now?
Mon
Mostly music videos at the moment, but I've been itching to do something more experimental with colour and reflections.
Mon
That's exactly my world. The neon work started as a happy accident — a broken sign outside my studio.
Mon
Ha! The best ideas usually come from broken things. Do you shoot mostly on film or digital for those?
Mon
Polaroid for the texture, then I rephotograph and grade. It keeps the imperfections that digital smooths away.
Tue
Love that. I've got a small studio space we could use for a test — blacked-out walls, plenty of power.
Tue
Sounds perfect. We'd need a haze machine and a couple of practical neon tubes. I can source the tubes.
Tue
I have a haze machine and a small dimmer board. What colours were you thinking?
Tue
Magenta and cyan as the base, with a warm amber to break it up. Maybe a single green accent.
Tue
That palette is going to look incredible on skin. Should we cast a model or keep it abstract first?
Wed
Let's do an abstract lighting test first, then bring a model for round two once we know what works.
Wed
Smart. I can block out a Saturday — full day, no rush. Catering on me.
Wed
You had me at catering. 😄 Let me check my calendar for the next two Saturdays.
Wed
No pressure at all. I'll start a shared moodboard so we're aligned before the day.
Thu
Great — drop me a couple of reference frames you love and I'll add mine.
Thu
Will do tonight. Mostly thinking Refn-meets-Saul-Leiter — soft glow, deep shadows, lots of negative space.
Thu
Now I'm excited. That's a really specific mood and it's totally achievable in a small room.
Fri
I just realised we never locked a date — what does the weekend after next look like for you?
Fri
Also — are you around in Berlin next month?
