happy Halloween
hi everyone happy Halloween 2017 I'm in downtown Fort Lauderdale have my Houston
Astros hacks or they could win the World Series tonight that I represent I've
been wearing my old Houston that this hat in the jacket for the past couple
Halloween's well I've been doing this Halloween project so every Halloween
what I do is I come out and I photograph people in their costumes this is my
fourth year doing it 2017 in Fort Lauderdale on South Beach and so far my
lighting my that was on unnecessary anyway my my lighting assistants aren't
here yet no one is punctual in South Florida so we're just going to hang out
and we're going to start shooting soon
that's about here's one of my lighting assistants Tatiana who's wearing my
houston astros jacket and as you can see she doesn't seem to be too happy with
that werewolf pulling her hair and here's my other lighting assistant Raoul
we were about to get started well we just actually we just got started it's
about 6 o'clock people are just getting off work so
should be busy soon this is me just walking down the street shooting some
b-roll trying to look cool in front of the camera so when I shoot I'm looking
for interesting characters like this Bob Marley banana
all right so let's pause it right there so as you can see South Florida is
particularly interesting because anything goes as you can see while Bob
Marley banana is sending a text this girl's lunch down is smoking a bowl and
this guy over here was drinking a beer
don't worry about it I know my new god
I like the smile I think I like the smile
I always check the positioning of my light first then when it's dark I use a
small flashlight in this case my cellphone light to help me autofocus on
the subject
then I give some posing instructions as I see fit
I thought this lightsaber light-up shoes and costume in general was really cool
so anytime I meet someone like this I try to get a variety of poses and
shooting angles
starwars never gets out of style
overall shooting in Fort Lauderdale was a lot of fun
without people are in Miami hitting 70 degrees is cold
South Beach is crowded so you have to be able to shoot in tight spaces
so the later it gets in the night the more animated people get in their
costumes also people tend to go out late in Miami
oh this is the best one
I like to get in close proximity of my subjects I shoot in order to create a
more intimate feeling
I believe it's important to show people the photos so they get more enthusiastic
about the shoot oh god what is day I got on camera
what's Halloween without shooting a few criminals oh wait a minute
I mean shooting in a good way if you made it this far in the video I want to
