  • Photographic legend meets ballet’s enfant terrible. Albert Watson’s painterly eye and mastery of light, and Sergei Polunin’s astonishing physicality were ably assisted by the Profoto Pro-10. And the result? Extraordinary imagery we were proud to be a part of. Watch the BTS to learn from one of the great masters of photography.

    one thing i notice in these older photographers, i feel they really loved what they did. It wasn't business or about money. It was about art. Its like they could of picked up a canvas and brush but instead wanted to do it with a camera. Love this.

      It was also about surviving. Read their biographies well, they took up photography to pay bills or sth or studied with someone. But one thing is they were inspired to create originality and with depth

    Wow. What a pleasure to watch a video showing photography at its highest level without even noticing the advertisement. "We turn them on and they work."
    Inspiring video.
    OK, now back to regular, common videos of Canon vs. Nikon vs. Sony vs. mirrorless vs. DSLR vs. natural light only vs. flash vs. bla bla this vs. bla bla that.

    Superb video Profoto! Watching a Master at work...priceless. His work has always been inspirational and continues to be. The respect and interaction he showed with his team and model allowed us an insight to the most important reasons, beyond the technical aspects, how he is able to create such outstanding captures. Video coverage of the shoot was great. Seeing lights in actual use, not just quick, flashy cuts and showing us the live Capture One previews was like being on set. Thank you Profoto!

      I like the way Steven Meisel directs an entire group of fashion models. It's difficult to direct so many subjects and get them to emote. Dancers and Actors are easier to photograph because they naturally know how to emote.

    It's like watching an illusionist. You can watch Albert Watson shoot the photograph right in front of you, and it doesn't mean that you can do it too. Don't even try. Watch the video, marvel at Watson's amazing beauty, and walk away. Get the Profotos - they are the best - and find your own groove, do your own thing, and shoot shoot shoot.

    the jumping into the fabric was an excellent idea
    Although it could have been done just as effectively and easier if he would've draped the fabric over him and then had him jump. Even if there was a worry about the fabric falling off as he got ready to jump, small piece of tape would've solved that.
