For its 30th-anniversary issue, Creative Review asked various industry figures to talk about “one thing, person, idea or place that they are excited about for the future, in order to create a list of 30 exiting prospects for the future.” The RED camera was one of those things, and the magazine uses a recent Prada campaign shot with a RED by Steven Meisel as an example.
As Gavin Lucas writes in a post CR’s blog, the fashion magazine LOVE is advertising its new issue with a 60-second film called The LOVE Thing that was shot with the RED and directed by “CG specialist” James Lima, who has worked on projects for Madonna, James Cameron, Steven Spielberg, and others.

“I’m very excited by the idea of [fashion embracing] moving image,” LOVE’s Katie Grand told CR’s Lucas. “Clothes and bodies look better in motion. The new technology surrounding the iPad is also very interesting to me, and it’s thrilling to try and find a new way of working with fashion that isn’t just two-dimensional. Adding sound and movement to fashion is a huge and very exciting challenge.”
Also in CR‘s anniversary issue, Brett Foraker, creative director of Britain’s Channel 4, names our own David Drebin as one to watch. “I chose David Drebin because I like the cinematic quality in his pictures,” Foraker told the magazine, which published this photo of David’s:

“Chances are you’ve seen some of his photos without quite knowing who made them,” Foraker continued. “His work references predecessors like Crewdson, LaChapelle and diCorcia but perhaps possesses an even greater sense of place. It is hard to find a photographer who is equally comfortable with personal and commercial work, but Drebin’s attention to detail on both fronts gives him a real edge.”
