The portrait series captured an emotional and poetic journey within human existence. To highlight the vitality and playfulness of the brand, we design an animation technique to further enhance Song Chao's portrait bringing each picture to life. CONCEPT The Song Chao shooting took place over the course of three days. Before the shoot, we constructed a rough animation to help illustrate the outcome of each topic and to help finalize the movements of each model. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/concept01.gif" width="300" height="399" width_o="300" height_o="399" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/concept01_o.gif" data-mid="6931944" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/concept02.gif" width="300" height="400" width_o="300" height_o="400" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/concept02_o.gif" data-mid="6931946" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/concept03.gif" width="300" height="391" width_o="300" height_o="391" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/concept03_o.gif" data-mid="6931947" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/concept06.gif" width="300" height="399" width_o="300" height_o="399" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/concept06_o.gif" data-mid="6932006" border="0" align="left"/> FINAL Here is the final output of the portraits. We create an interactive setup inside the flagship store. Normally, the installation resembles a regular photo in a photo frame but when there is movement in front, the installation will interact and the picture will begin to move. The concept is to draw the audiences attention and follow the emotional and poetic journey of this exhibition. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/ZhangXue_all_final.gif" width="270" height="480" width_o="270" height_o="480" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/ZhangXue_all_final_o.gif" data-mid="6933162" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/madonna_final 3.gif" width="270" height="480" width_o="270" height_o="480" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/madonna_final 3_o.gif" data-mid="6933165" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/HouWei_final.gif" width="270" height="480" width_o="270" height_o="480" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/HouWei_final_o.gif" data-mid="6933167" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/MoYi_hat_final.gif" width="270" height="480" width_o="270" height_o="480" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/MoYi_hat_final_o.gif" data-mid="6933170" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/Lulu_final.gif" width="270" height="480" width_o="270" height_o="480" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/Lulu_final_o.gif" data-mid="6933174" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/Oldman_final.gif" width="270" height="480" width_o="270" height_o="480" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1422802/Oldman_final_o.gif" data-mid="6933179" border="0" align="left"/> CREDITS Creative Direction (Animation & Interaction) - Benny Leung Photography - Song Chao To celebrate the opening of DSQUARED² flagship store in Beijing, the fashion brand and JOYCE collaborated with famous photographer Song Chao to develop a... http://cargocollective.com/silentexplosion/MILK-MAGAZINE-500UC-UNDERMAN-SS-11 http://cargocollective.com/silentexplosion/following/silentexplosion/MILK-MAGAZINE-500UC-UNDERMAN-SS-11 Mon, 09 May 2011 23:22:55 +0000 Silent Explosion 1421426 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1421426/UCmilk_640.jpg" width="640" height="84" width_o="766" height_o="101" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37732/1421426/UCmilk_o.jpg" data-mid="6923409" border="0" align="left"/> This styling shoot for Undercover's Spring/Summer 11 collection is drawn from inspiration of different movies.
