The welcome intruder -Daniel Brühl at Spot-

admin — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 21:02:49 +0000

The door opens, a young man enters the room. He gleefully pulls on his cigarette. Hey I’m here, Daniel. None other than Daniel Brühl is with us today in SPOT Studio Barcelona.

In cooperation with neo2 magazine photographer César Segarra and his crew, including stylist Roberto Piquieras, welcome the German.

From the beginning everyone feels like extremely comfortable, everything goes according to plan. It is one of that magical moments in the studio. “I feel like at home” Daniel says and passes by with a smile. And just in this moment our crew knows too well: we want that all feel relaxed and thus the model shows exactly the attitude, which the photographer is interested in, his true face. Exactly this he gets today. It seems like you are in your own living room. All have some finger food, then Daniel speaks about his new film Intruders, we shot a new picture and all over again. The crew of Neo2 is excited about the studio:

“Of course, the atmosphere on set helps. Completely transparent, 140 square meters with a height of 3.40 meters and 40 meter window with views over Barcelona. Lots of light, dispense with the blinds. We would stay to live there: air conditioning, kitchen, good stereo and everything you need to spend the day doing good pictures … Well, we also can have a party.”

says Neo2 Blog (http://www.neo2.es/blog/2011/10/daniel-bruhl-neo2/) . At the end of the session all the team sit together a bit longer and enjoy the view over the city. Daniel says briefly, “It was an awesome shooting here” and he has gone as fast as he arrived. Spot says thanks for that wonderful happening.

PS: If you grab the october issue of Neo2 you can see the results.

My head could use some cooling!

What have a stylist, a model, a professor and students in common? Lot´s of fun! We invited the Institut D´Estudis Fotográfics de Catalunya IEFC (www.iefc.cat) to a professional photo session in our Spot Studio Barcelona on April, first of 2011. With the support of Francina Models and Cazcarra Image Group we could realize an unforgettable moment for all young photographers. After explaining and demonstrating different light shaping tools from Profoto and Briese, the students could take the chance to push the button and shoot under professional conditions. Students commented afterwards: “the right illumination is what makes all the differences” or “to work in a studio like this gives you a really good work flow”. At the end of the day Spot hopes that we could give all students some motivation to face a career as a professional photographer.

Is anybody there?
