_Jane here_ *Happy Halloween* You know when Joe thinks about a sweet little girl reading a book in her room, there has to be a twist, right? This time the twist is that the lovely mural on her wall just so happens to have come alive. Just this _one_ night. Here's the making of The Power of Imagination: The Bedroom: Nikon D810 - The Power of Imagination "The Bedroom" #joemcnally #nikonphotography #nikonambassador #halloween #happyhalloween #photographylightingtips #creativephotos #nikonambassador #nikonnofilter #behindthescenes

You are a Genius...I am in awe of the work you do and the way you go about capturing your shots

Iconic picture, is what we get here. Maybe not for the general public, but it should be for every photographer. Technically, it shows a clever mix of big fat studio flash combined with speedlights. I'd argue that all the indoor light could have been done with SB-800/SB-900/SB-910 where there are Profotos - but that's just a matter of using what you already have. Just those 3 Profoto 2,400 W.s pack strobes outside mimicking moonlight at broad daylight - brilliant (I would equate that to about 96 SB-910 speedlights, btw.) The whole production is a great collaboration. Joe's modest, slightly victimy, report of how he is sailing through Scylla and Charybdis and manages to get past that - not sure that is necessary but it makes clear to outsiders that serious work was done. There is no "chance" here. Remember the noble words of Louis Pasteur "luck favors the prepared mind" (associated with accepting a 1907 Nobel prize), or Eisenhower's variant to that: "luck is where preparation meets opportunity." Here, preparation enforced the result and bad luck was really mitigated. PPPPPP: prior preparation prevents p... poor performance, fellas on an island between my neck of the woods and the US would say.

A true master at work. Great image.

Fantastico... stupendo

What a great photograph. Concept and execution.

My inspiration

I have the Imagination of a footstool. I love Photography. I would not have thought half of this stuff... Thanks Joe!

super!!!! men

good work sir

so great!!!It seems you are a profoto ambassador now? haha. I love my profoto light.

can anyone tell me, how to make the outdoor light become blue without post proces? not sure i catch it in the video. thanks

Excellent as always. What was the image commissioned for Joe? Book, advert? Very interested to know.

How are you firing the SB speedlites? SU-$ setting? Thanks.

what lens was he using?

I think the girl should have looked up and to the left....would have loved to see the shots they did not choose.

乔叔叔 我太崇拜你了！！！了不起！

Please speak to the Mic, bad bad sound

I loved this, however, PLEASE be more professional and wear a mike. It is amateur to do it with possible ambient noise. I am not being negative, just realistic. And drop the hiphop music, I almost turned if off after 5 seconds of it. otherwise awesome!

excelente

nice look behind the scene. here is $1 tip *****

All that work and honestly it’s just a nice photo. Doesn’t wow me or that I would buy as a print and hang on my wall. Pretty sad though for all that effort from the photographer and collaborators. I’m sure they are talented but it just doesn’t work.

This is a what a top professional comes up with? Stick to lighting and stay away from the fantasy. I'm amazed Nikon doesn't recoil from this depiction of a middle-aged man using a half-naked model to indulge his limited sense of expression. Anyone with a full frame camera and a $20,000 budget should be able to come up with something a lot more compelling and curious than this piece of inanity, and I mean this visually as well as lyrically. And do something about the audio recording: the absurd swishing around the voices is a devastating indictment of incompetence on set. I'd like to see what Joe can do with a single camera and no crew and a couple of flashes with a deadline to tell a story, something with some depth, not adorned with this faux Madison Avenue elaboration. Is he capable of something brilliant? Prove it.
