AMAZONITEPhoto press kit for K.I.D's latest album
K.I.D (Krak In Dub) came to ask me to work for his press photo regarding the release of his latest album : Amazonite
I took inspiration from his cover art work and also from his desire to not appear too much in the press material.
I first used my digital camera in my studio, adding green gel to my strobe. I asked him to pose as if he was playing in a club. In post I added a cubic fx to recall the cover art work. Placing the fx it as if it were produce by his audio equipment and as if it was a result of his music
I aslo used an old 6x6 Mamyia C330 with kodak portra film
but keep combining analog film and the digital post to add the Amazonite Fx
As Press requires also some B&W pictures I aslo did few tintypes
Tintype is an old photo technique from 1850 using a bellow camera
I love the default in this old technique, and the silverish aspect. Finally it look more white on black than B&W
Amazonite is available on vinyl / cd / digital ::: https://Musicast.lnk.to/Amazonite
