NEW YORK ISSUE 48 Apr 2006

NY-based cinematographer, Manfred Reiff, was DP on last year's Don't Blink project.

Don't Blink was created for fashion photographer Nick Knight's Showstudio ‘Moving Fashion’ project with an all-star fashion team including model Linda Evangelista, wardrobe designer Patti Wilson, make-up by Kabuki and hair by Julian D’Y from a concept by Luca Stoppini, for Italian Vogue art director.

The film is a short, intense meditation on seeing, beauty and time. Linda’s blinking eye reflects on her career, as well as fashion history, with her eye framing three enigmatic images and previous fashion periods.

The project was shot in uncompressed HD with the new Sony Cinealta F-950 4:4:4 camera system and directed by Francesco Carrozzini.
