Communication:

Contacting local talents, finding photography studios was a challenge at Xi’an city where I am not familiar with at all. But I managed to reach out to few creative individuals to work together through local friend’s help.

Contacting studio, choosing makeup & hair artist and the model to work with.
Purchasing props: preparing for the set. I also rent an analogue film camera for the shoot.

I played the roles of creative director, fashion stylist, and analogue film photographer for this photoshoot. A series of representational photographs, onsite recorded clips, a short art film were generated as outcomes.
