As part of the creative mayhem described in the previous [improvisational post](./en/index.php/2012/05/theatre-photoimprovisations/), the idea to shoot screensavers for Friends was born, good thing that the sofa in the interior of the studio was present.... Well, it's off!

Thank you so much, Masha, for inviting me to be the second photographer at this madness! I absolutely love capturing action that doesn’t need directing.

In short, what was this all about... As I understood, it was theatrical improvisation, where the director sets a theme, an actor strikes a pose according to the theme, the second actor reacts to what the first one did with their own move, the third… and so on. There were five of them in total 🙂

Once upon a time, there was a girl named Masha, and she had a book about the magical kingdom of the third realm... and Masha fell in love with a prince from there, an Elf. She fell so deeply in love that magic happened, and the Elf ended up in our world. He started searching for the girl Masha... or at least a way back 🙂

All photos are published with the consent of the models. The shoot is organized by the Artshabash community. Thanks so much everyone, it was really cool 😉

All shot with the Tokina 50-135/2.8 at different focal lengths and almost always 2.8. The lens was someone else's, I didn't have time to get used to it, often missed focus, autofocus is not fast even on Nikon D200.
