PRIVATE AFFAIR film

"It is a wonderful experience to work with a team that understands your vision, and this film is very special to me.
I was inspired by the early physique photography and the Italian cinema in black and white. I wanted to create many layers with the ambiguity of the characters, the dance scenes, the subtle gestures of the actors,
The music is a very important element in my work. For this film, I mixed barroque music from XVIII century in contraposition with a modern mix of a 60s song, both songs talk about the same theme : The Lost love ".

Michael Z by Bell Soto

I shot these portraits of Michael earlier this year. His face and body are like a modern Renassiance sculpture to me. Sensual and elegant at the same time.
He is represented by Chosen in Chicago and Soul in NYC.
