FASHION SHOOT "Kapital Denim Osaka/Japan"
Season after season, Japanese brand Kapital manages to excite, confound, inspire and captive with its range of clothing. Designs blend familiar and innovative ideas, and utilize top-tier construction and materials. The brand isn’t afraid to take risks and embrace esoteric or quirky concepts. With such experimental and unique clothing, the brand needed an alternative to bland industry-standard lookbooks. So they teamed up with Brookyln-based photographer Eric Kvatek to produce in-depth photo books, cataloging each season’s garments on unconventional models in peculiar locales. The latest book — called Denim Bauhaus — showcases the latest collection in Berlin, Germany. The urban setting is a departure from many Kapital books, and models are posed around Soviet-era buildings, historic landmarks and former US military installations. Formidable architecture — angular, imposing, bleak — is a canvas for intricate garments: an Ainu-pattern denim jacket, a Coogi-meets-boro cardigan, a puffy, woven ripstop vest. >> I supported this fashion shoot as local production fixer for logistics as well location scouting and locking in Berlin, Germany

DOCUMENTARY SERIES "Voices of liberation"
‘Voices of Liberation’ is an 11-part documentary series about the international commemoration route which joins together the important milestones of the Second World War. The route forms a chain between the most important regions during the advance of the western allies. The series guides us along this route accompanied by local hosts who each one of them have a link with the Second World War. Along the actual facts told through the use of personal documents (letters, diaries, memoiries) they also tell us their personal stories, which offers the public an alternative view of the events. In addition, this television series does not only focus on the story of ‘the Allied liberator’, but also on that of ‘the civilian’, ‘the resistance fighter’, ‘the collaborator’ and even ‘the enemy’. Therefore, ‘Voices of Liberation’ wants to find a balance with this angle by giving a voice to all people, from different angles and with different backgrounds, which will give us insights into the minds of the people who lived, fought and in the best case, survived the Second World War >> I have supported the German episodes as location manager and local fixer in Berlin and on locations in the former East Germany
