Collaborating with Godzilla
Hi everyone,
Recently I was having a conversation with a coworker and friend about the power of collaboration, and we were talking about a project we did together some years back. I realized this may be interesting to others, so I’m sharing the story here.
The Backstory
Working in marketing, communications and technology has allowed me to collaborate with many talented people over the years.
In 2013 I was shooting for Okinawa Living magazine, a specialty culture magazine produced for the U.S. Marine Corps and their families’ station in Okinawa, Japan.
The magazine's art director, Henry Ortega, came up with the idea to do something special in honor of the 60th anniversary of the first Godzilla movie. He wanted to build a diorama set, recreate scenes from the original movie, and photograph them for a special feature in the magazine. I had never shot dioramas before, so when Henry approached me with the idea, I had to do a lot of research to learn how to pull this off.

Thanks for stopping by today.
