Honorable Mention
Models in Space: Paris, we have a Problem!
DESCRIPTION
In the editorial “Models in Space: Paris, We Have a Problem!” 2b+photo (Tobias Meier) actualizes his futuristic (and very fashionable!) vision.It is what would happen if the catwalks of Paris collided with Star Wars. An unforgettable editorial with its colourful scenes. It is a glimpse into a world where clones protect the high powered and floating in outer space is the norm.
The scenes are interesting, mysterious and open to interpretation. One can only guess what the woman pointing to the map of earth is saying, or what the button a woman presses is for. 2b+photo provides his viewers with a flexible storyline, ultimately determined by their own imagination.
Overall a very captivating and fun editorial.
