Hulu Marketing needed a new library of lifestyle photography (because we were giving too much money to https://www.stocksy.com/).
My role was as the client and the art director.
The process went as follows:
- Put together a style board to help narrow down what kind of photographer we should hire.
- Find and hire a photographer (http://www.jessiewebster.com/) and shot-stylist (http://www.tinycanalcottage.com/blog).
- Hire a production team
- Put together a shot list
- Audition and hire models
- Get style and shotlist approved by SVP Marketing of Hulu
- Scout locations and approve schedule
- Stand behind the photographer and manage shotlist and style

2. The Shot List and Models
To get a shotlist together, one of my designers and I held a few sessions to think through all the inspiration, the devices we know we'll want to capture, the audience demographics and the locations. This step is done before selecting both talent and locations.
