I shot this film and portrait series for @nowness. Shot in my hometown of LA, set against the nightscape of Los Angeles— I captured a gallery of faces for the second edition of Northwind, a dynamic mix of leading figures and fixtures in LA’s art and fashion scene. Assembling in honor of curator Neville Wakefield (@nevillewakefield) they met to hear the intrigue surrounding his impending relaunch of the iconic Rudi Gernreich fashion line and to celebrate his role as Artistic Director of Desert X. • Directed by Danielle Levitt, Cinematography by Rasa Partin, Color Timing by Joseph Lombardi Producing and Soundtrack Design by Sara Cline • Baby Alpaca “Sea Of Dreams” Turbotito Remix appears courtesy of bORDEL Records • #ScreenTests #DanielleLevitt #ciffdk #codeartfair #northwind @therealashleysmith
