ENO's BILLY BUDD
This presented a fantastic opportunity to do a shoot for the marketing image. With Perry Curties ( www.perrycurties.com ) on board, I felt we could get something great, and even though it was Benedict's first photoshoot, he proved a natural in front of the camera.
The rope didn't turn up until 2 days after the shoot - but managed to get some shots myself to use for the image.
With the shoot covered off, we took a punt at some singing shots. They didn't make it to the final image, but it was great to listen to in Complete's vaulted studio ( http://www.completeltd.com/ ).
This was the 1st stage visual that was used for direction and reference.
Another direction - unfortunately this didn't go through.
