Challenge
Our assignment was to capture the vibrancy and essence of the Ultra Music Festival Australia (UMFAU) through two main photography objectives. First, we were tasked with shooting the merchandise collection for UMFAU, showcasing the unique fashion elements integral to the festival’s brand. The second part of the project involved photographing the main event itself, capturing the dynamic atmosphere and memorable moments of the festival.
Ultra Merchandise Shoot 2020
Despite choosing a challenging day for the shoot at the Flemington Racecourse, the event unfolded successfully. A key highlight of the project was the opportunity to work with several influential figures in the industry. Their collaboration and expertise were instrumental in executing the project flawlessly, despite the less-than-ideal shooting conditions.
The final photography captured not only the stylish merchandise of UMFAU but also the vibrant energy and excitement of the festival. These images serve as a testament to the lively spirit of Ultra Music Festival Australia and play a crucial role in marketing and promoting the event. The collaboration with influencers also added a layer of engagement and appeal to the visual content, enhancing the overall impact of the project.
