Jump!

This is what we’re doing in NY this week: Shooting kids jumping on trampolines, though of course in the end result the trampoline will have disappeared, replaced by a beautiful blue sky.

Surprisingly, there has only been one overbearing parent. “The other week he was at a Polo shoot, and I kept telling him to NOT EAT WHILE HE WAS WEARING HIS CLOTHES! He’s ADHD, though, you have to really watch him. Trust me, he’ll be all over the place. Tony, come over here right now!”

The kids are mellow and sweet. They shake my hand and say, “Nice to meet you,” and then patiently wait to be dressed and make upped and told what to do next. I wonder if they are going be too quiet or shy. As soon as they get in front of a camera, though, they instantly transform into smiling, jumping, happy, perfect school kids. It’s an impressive transformation. I hope that puberty treats them kindly.

For a second there I thought those were Polaroids and I got real excited to see that people still use them. But go figure, they don't. It's all digital these days. It's too bad really... But it sounds like a fun project.
