GEORGE KAMPER + CAYMAN ISLANDS

July 21, 2023

Photographer / Director George Kamper had the opportunity to shoot stills for the Cayman Islands Department of Tourism Campaign. In collaboration with agency TRG, we embarked on a mission to stand out in a sea of sameness and capture the attention of the discerning Caribbean luxury traveler. 


The campaign consists of four highly conceptualized fashion-oriented TV spots and corresponding still ads, each meticulously designed to break away from the conventional Caribbean advertising approach. George's role was to capture the elements and scenarios that would help bring this concept to life.

Working in tandem with the DP, AD, Director, and other talented professionals on set, his photography seamlessly became part of the overall production complementing the dynamic energy of the campaign. 


Throughout the shoot, they faced numerous challenges, both in terms of logistics and capturing the desired shots. From shooting underwater scenes and capturing birds in motion to executing extreme close-ups, the project demanded versatility and adaptability as a photographer. George welcomed the complexities of shooting in diverse environments, including swaying platforms in the sea, low-light night shoots, and the unforgiving Caribbean sun.

As the sole photographer on the project, he took on the responsibilities of shooting, processing, and making on-set adjustments. Without assistants or digital techs, he collaborated closely with the AD and Producer to ensure a smooth workflow and timely execution.

This project is a testament to the alchemy of still photography and motion coming together to create impactful narratives. It allowed me to demonstrate my skill set and ability to capture compelling visuals under the pressure of a high concept and logistically challenging project that breaks away from the ordinary and leaves a lasting impression. George enjoys the challenge of tandem shooting, as it affirms the immense power of photography and motion working in perfect harmony.

✨ Why Custom Illustration Matter ✨ Why icons deserve a second look! Icons are often treated like a checkbox - something to grab from a stock library or pull from an existing UI kit. But when they’re built intentionally, they become one of the most quietly powerful tools in your creative arsenal. Custom icons do more than reinforce a brand. They clarify communication. They guide users. They bring visual consistency to even the most complex projects - across digital, print, packaging, environments, and campaigns. Illustrator James Nelson approaches icon work with that kind of purpose. His sets are clean, strategic, and built to flex—whether they’re solving for user experience, packaging hierarchies, internal comms, or large-scale marketing systems.

✨ Lincoln Durham - 3D Character Design + Animation - Rolling Loud Music Festival ✨ Lincoln Durham created this dynamic sizzle reel showcasing some of the 2D and 3D animations he developed for the Rolling Loud Music Festival across various cities, in collaboration with Zellus. These animations were primarily used for social media promotions and as NFTs to further engage festival fans. The original artwork, provided by an undisclosed artist, served as still illustrations that Lincoln brought to life by adding motion and sound. For the 3D scenes, he sculpted and rigged characters inspired by the 2D illustrations, using them as a foundation to build out a story line based on direction from Zellus. Lincoln’s ability to seamlessly blend 2D and 3D animation, along with his expertise in motion and sound design, brings energy and depth to every project. His work for Rolling Loud is just one example of how he transforms static illustrations into immersive, high-impact visuals. Looking to elevate your next project with dynamic animation?
