About Drive2Extremes Multivision Primary Function: Fotografesch Konschtwierk

Book Text: Drive2Extremes Multivision ass eng Serie vu fotografesche Konschtwierker, déi zwou extrem Landschaften an eenzelne Biller verbannen. De Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo gouf fir d'éischt op engem gefruerene Moor a Lappland, nërdlech vum Polarkrees, fotograféiert. Zwou Wochen drop gouf den Auto an déiselwecht Positioun relativ zur Kamera geluecht, an bei enger ähnlecher Sonnepositioun, an der arabescher Wüst an de Vereenegten Arabeschen Emirater. Déi zwou Usiichte goufen dann duerch Techniken vun der Méifachbeliichtung fusionéiert. D'Zil war et, Pol- a Wüsteszenerie an engem eenzege Bild zesummen ze bréngen. D'Konschtwierker goufen a verschiddene Gréissten hiergestallt.

Unique Properties
I had the wonderful opportunity to bring together the two extremes of the Northern Polar Region in Levi, Finland and the Arabian Desert in Liwa, United Arab Emirates with the Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo. These are some of the results.

I first photographed the Taycan in the polar region, then placed it exactly the same, same perspective, camera angle, etc. in the desert and applied my multivision mojo.
Dimensions & Packaging
Several produced artworks in different sizes.

Production Technology
I first placed and photographed the Porsche on a frozen bog in Lapland, north of the Arctic Circle, and two weeks later in the same position relative to the camera and at a similar position of the sun in the Arabian desert. These two images were then fluidly built together.
Design Challenge
The challenge was to position the car in the exact same angle, height, etc. And in the desert you have to work quite fast, due to the very fast sunset and sundown.
Research
The research was mainly about the weather and the times of sunset and sunrise. Also in resaerching the area and locations and how to protect the cameras from sand, dust and snow and how we could work at -30 degrees Celsius and +45 degrees Celsius with our equipment...
Inspiration
I worked before for Porsche as a commercial photographer. As an artist I often work with multiple exposure photography. Porsche Middel East produced a highly acclaimed film Drive2Extrems, bringing the two locations desert and polar region together. I worked before with the executive people from Porsche in Shanghai and produced there multiple exposure Artworks for the Photofairs Shanghai. In the new project I wanted to combine the two regions in one picture.
Project Duration
It took 2 weeks of photo-production in Finland and the UAE desert and 2 weeks of post-production.
Operation Flow
I knew the places and locations but I had to decide on location on which time I wanted to shoot, due to sunset or sunrise. In Finland it was quite easy, sunset and sunrise take about 2 hours and more. In the desert in the UAE it was more difficult: sunrise and sunset are done in less than 30 minutes...
