Hopping on the hype. And the conspiracy theories. And the craziness surrounding this cultural phenomenon. Stranger things have happened than this shoot, or should I say…shoots, but the craziness surrounding this comp is…crazy! Two of the cast of “Stranger Things” couldn’t be at our first shoot, so we had to do a second shoot and “photoshop” them in. This isn’t about how the moon landing was staged, this is simply about the availability of people who are in great demand. So here we are in Spring Studios in New York City photographing four members of the cast. We’ve got a Hasselblad with a 50mm lens on a mega boom with a special adaptor post from the geniuses at @screamingbroccoli. We’ve got a singular @elinchrom_ltd Octobank doing all of the work. We’ve got @leemorganfoto and @zackgarlitos making sure the Octobank doesn’t fall on top of our famous kids. We’ve got Eric Vlasic firing the Hasselblad from the iMac. And we’ve got @photogshmotog shooting the BTS and helping produce her first road gig in The Big Apple. Thank you @jodyquon and #roxannebehr for an amazing opportunity! Thank you @shawnlevydirect for sharing this Duffer Bros. story with the rest of the world. @hasselblad_official @nymag @strangerthingstv #strangerthings @finnwolfhardoffical @milliebobbybrown @therealcalebmclaughlin @sadiesink_ @gatenm123 @noahschnapp @netflix #netflix

And there’s MORE! So much more! BTS of MBB for NYMAG. For this week’s Fall Preview cover story about the kids from and the cultural phenomenon of “Stranger Things,” we photographed eight different group set ups and singles of each of the six leads. At left (and directly, centered behind me) is just one unskinned @elinchrom_ltd Octobank, which, strangely, I’ve never mentioned on this feed before. Each of the individual portraits was photographed against a black 12×20 duvetyn that we were REALLY using to shape the light for our eight other set ups. Then the lighting duo of @leemorganfoto and @zackgarlitos walked in two black v-flats to give the cheekbones a little bit of shape. And then the kids brang it. Major props to @bradwardo who teched on part 2 and @photogshmotog who co-produced both parts of this fun-filled, jam-packed, cross country project. Thank you @jodyquon and #roxannebehr for an amazing opportunity! Thank you @shawnlevydirect for sharing this Duffer Bros. story with the rest of the world. @hasselblad_official @nymag @strangerthingstv #strangerthings @finnwolfhardofficial @milliebobbybrown @therealcalebmclaughlin @sadiesink_ @gatenm123 @noahschnapp @netflix #netflix
