    Honestly, for a commercial gig where you are heavily influencing the scene these are some of the most real photos you’ve taken. I think you killed it! I can’t imagine trying to get that classic street photography look while dropping a whopper in a strangers hands

  • @christopherbgriffith
    @christopherbgriffith Před rokem +29

    Frederik, I couldn’t be happier about you being chosen for this project. You have both the street photographer’s savvy for creating moments and the commercial sensibilities to pull off something that feels genuine and spontaneous while being made for a brand. It was so awesome to see you skating alongside the boarder. As someone who has worked in advertising and is now into photography, this kind of behind-the-scenes is gold. Thank you for sharing it. Also, so good to see you back on YT. I hope BK paid you big bucks for the shoot. 😊

    Of all the photography videos I’ve seen this was the most interesting, entertaining and informative. And most importantly, inspiring. Thanks for pulling back the curtain and sharing how this all came together. (And great shots!).

    Who would've thought commercial photography could be this much fun.

    @djmcwill1010 Před rokem +5

    Advertising isn't exactly my wheelhouse, but as a business major, business owner, and someone who has worked in many different industries at many different levels, this campaign makes me think someone at BK had a stroke of genius. They want to promote their removal of additive colors, flavors and artificial preservatives, and they selected you. As a recent follower, you strike me as devoid of...uh...artificial flavors. Among the more recent videos of yours that I've watched, you showed an early (first?) run with a Canon film camera where you missed exposure. Another where you ran a 400 black and white film, setting the camera to 800 ISO where you likely wanted 200 ISO. You document the reality of experience. You put some of your learning process on display. You show what's....real? Burger King wants to show showcase their...shall we say more "real" food. I just think this was a great fit. I've no doubt your final work will hold up to scrutiny. You and BK both make a win with the release of this video alone, and it's probably left an indelible mark on me, as a casual viewer (who happens to be about a mile from a Burger King, and lunch is in a couple of hours and.....hmm...)

  • @chingwa888
    @chingwa888 Před rokem +5

    Frederik - this blew me away. As you mentioned, street photography is hard enough, sometimes just by asking permission you completely destroy the original "natural" scene. Then adding hamburgers and asking non-models to act naturally and to get the images you got, all I can say is bravo. Very inspiring stuff.

  • @bongieger7871

    Finally an awesome street photography project. You definitely nailed it. My favourite image is the 4 garbage guys eating the burgers at the back of the garbage truck. That image could have 4 different interpretations, depending on who is viewing it.

    I noticed you always ask people if you can take their photos. Is this out of courtesy or legal obligations in Mexico?

  • @zoltankaparthy9095
    @zoltankaparthy9095 Před rokem +1

    Frederik, I have watched a number of your vids and do enjoy them. I have watched your style improve and mature. This one is the best of all I have seen of your work. You are in the zone with these, bro, you are in the zone. As for the ad agency, they are a bunch of moronic critics and critics are legless men who teach running. That you got anything by them is a mark of skill and savvy. I hope that this foray into advertising is the beginning of big bucks and doing so without a diminishment of artistic skill. Tak!

    These are great, man. I'll have to visit the museum, or maybe start taking the subway rather than cycling. As a designer for an ad agency, I think you executed the concept really well, and pretty cheaply considering. You captured the soul of the street here - the real people who eat Burger King here. Not the Polanquitos who would never touch it.
