Djimon Hounsou x Dylan George x Arri

September 29, 2022 by kwakualston

/ I was asked by @dylangeorgebrand to create images for their men’s Fall capsule collection featuring @djimon_hounsou. My creative partners at @arri reached out to me that same week to try their new line of Signature Zooms and this was the perfect opportunity to bridge two brands with great talent and direct a motion piece. Motion footage shot on the Arri Alexa Mini LF with DP @bartenal_dp / Wardrobe stylist @ashleynorthstyle / MUA @oliviafischamakeup / BTS motion by @hagoth

NOPE

March 20, 2022 by kwakualston

Never thought I would have the chance to photograph a floating horse and be presented with the challenge of how to make this comp come alive, from a surreal illustration into a realistic and visually stunning still image. The thriller genre is uniquely suited for darker and creative light exploration, an element I love to play with. ☁️Thank you to the inclusive teams at Universal Pictures, LA Associates, and Monkeypaw Productions for collaborating with me on #NOPEmovie, director @JordanPeele’s newest release. Stay tuned for the character […]
