Cut this fashion editorial in black and white to keep the eye on silhouette and texture instead of color. Graded for contrast, then timed every cut to the footsteps so the walk carries its own rhythm. Editorial doesn't need a hard hook when the frame already commands attention.

Opened this brand film on a held wide of an empty horizon, no cut for the first few seconds. The reflex is to start fast, but on cinematic work that slow breath is what makes the first hard cut actually land. Anamorphic crop and a warm-to-cool grade to carry the emotional turn.
