Canon Portrait Studio: Sundance 2017

CANON CREATIVE STUDIO SELECTS MICHAEL ORI (ORI MEDIA) AS LEAD PHOTOGRAPHER FOR SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL 2017 PORTRAIT STUDIO

(Park City, UT) - Michael Ori (filmmaker, photographer and founder - Ori Media) will lead the Portrait Studio at the Canon Creative Studio at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival for the second year in a row. The Canon Creative Studio opens in conjunction with the festival and is located directly on Park City’s iconic Main Street. It creates a hub for filmmakers and invited guests to engage in hands-on experimentation and exploration from pre-production through production and post.

Headshots will be captured on the Canon 5D Mark IV by Michael Ori and retouched by Joey Joanitis (DIT - Ori Media). Images will be printed on the spot with a Canon Pro-1000 printer, providing a physical 8x10 image. On-site IMDb Pro Staff will be available for immediate upload, and images will be subsequently available at orimedia.com/sundance. Equipment demonstrations, conversations and snacks provided as well. 

Ori Media and Canon

Michael’s relationship with Canon began in 2012 through a “Quit Smoking” campaign involving the innovative use of stills-from-motion 4K video on Canon’s versatile workhorse, the Canon EOS 1D C.  From the initial discovery, the Ori Media  team have field-tested and reviewed numerous Canon cameras - most recently the highly anticipated 5D Mark IV camera. Michael and Joey subsequently joined Canon for a month long press tour through Vietnam, South Korea, Thailand, Beijing and Hong Kong, commencing with a live demonstration at Canon’s Festival of Photography.  The Canon 5D Mark IV will be available for live-learning opportunities at the Canon Creative Studio.
