The idea was to create a short fashion film, set within the breathtaking interiors of Eltham Palace, a British architectural landmark. When Fujifilm Europe came on board as a partner, it brought the project&#8217;s ambitions within reach \u2014 and, as it turned out, the timing could not have been better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHaving previously worked with Aisha on the Premista launch film, I knew firsthand the level of visual storytelling she brings to the table,\u201d says Marc Cattrall, Business Development Manager for Cinema at Fujifilm Europe. \u201cWhen she shared her initial concept, I saw more than just an incredible opportunity to support a feminist story that absolutely deserves to be told. Aisha didn\u2019t know it yet, but the timing was perfect. Our new GF19-35mm Power Zoom lens was just around the corner and I was eager to see exactly what it could do in a real-world environment. A stylised fashion shoot was the ultimate testing ground. It quickly became a collaboration that worked beautifully for everyone involved.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Story: A Mini-Revolt in Every Scene<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>MANNERS<\/em> is a film about femininity, autonomy, and the subtle rebellion of women navigating imposed social codes. Captured in a single day with a nimble crew, the film builds its tension through the contrast between a commanding voiceover and two women who simply refuse to obey it. Each scene is a composed, unhurried act of defiance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div><div class=\"block-video-player\"><div class=\"max-w-[800px] m-auto w-full relative fade-up-parallax\"><div class=\"block-video-player__splash-img aspect-w-16 aspect-h-9 js-btn--modal-youtube\" data-id=\"pg5sdJ6GCE8\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/MANNERS-YT-Thumb.jpg\" alt=\"MANNERS-YT-Thumb\" loading=\"lazy\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/><span class=\"play-button \"><\/span><\/div><\/div><div class=\"modal modal--youtube hidden\" data-id=\"pg5sdJ6GCE8\"><div class=\"modal__content relative\"><button class=\"btn-modal-close\" data-id=\"pg5sdJ6GCE8\"><span><\/span><span><\/span><\/button><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\"><div id=\"player-pg5sdJ6GCE8\" data-id=\"pg5sdJ6GCE8\" class=\"youtube-iframe\"><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;At its core, the narrative operates on a dual layer,&#8221; explains director Aisha Schliessler. &#8220;We have a stern, traditional narrator who dictates rules of propriety inspired by vintage etiquette, while two modern women silently yet confidently dismantle them through their actions. I envisioned this voice like a ghost of the past, living within the walls of the space, yet at the same time, it felt relevant, as women are still being haunted by dated social codes and expectations. Each scene acts as a mini-revolt, whether it&#8217;s a lingering gaze into the lens or relaxing in a bathtub, armed with a cigarette and opinions. Together, the vignettes build to a literal and symbolic shattering of the rules, showing in the most elegant fashion that some things are more powerful once broken.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Embracing the Space: Cinematography &amp; Lighting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Brighton-based Director of Photography Sy Turnbull joined the project, working closely with Aisha to translate an ambitious shoot into a single day on location. As Eltham Palace is a functioning museum, there were strict restrictions on how the space could be used, and every setup had to be carefully planned to make the day. The adaptability of the Fujifilm system proved essential to moving easily through the palace and delivering the film within their allotted time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div><div class=\"block-video-player\"><div class=\"max-w-[800px] m-auto w-full relative fade-up-parallax\"><div class=\"block-video-player__splash-img aspect-w-16 aspect-h-9 js-btn--modal-youtube\" data-id=\"ZDFIP6KHgbg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/MANNERS-BTS-YT-Thumb_2.png\" alt=\"MANNERS-BTS-YT-Thumb_2\" loading=\"lazy\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"\/><span class=\"play-button \"><\/span><\/div><\/div><div class=\"modal modal--youtube hidden\" data-id=\"ZDFIP6KHgbg\"><div class=\"modal__content relative\"><button class=\"btn-modal-close\" data-id=\"ZDFIP6KHgbg\"><span><\/span><span><\/span><\/button><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\"><div id=\"player-ZDFIP6KHgbg\" data-id=\"ZDFIP6KHgbg\" class=\"youtube-iframe\"><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>To complement the 1930s Art Deco aesthetic of Eltham Palace, the production team chose a naturalistic lighting philosophy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFrom a lighting perspective, we wanted to stay true to the space, but embrace the darkness,\u201d says DP Sy Turnbull. \u201cEvery light source has a naturalistic placement, keeping with the building and tone. The large sensor gives us that medium format photography look that we&#8217;re all accustomed to in fashion photography. So it&#8217;s the perfect aesthetic for this film.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Optics and Architecture: The Fujifilm GF Lens Lineup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To capture both the expansive, grand scale of the palace ballroom and the intimate, subtle facial expressions of the performers, Sy relied entirely on Fujifilm&#8217;s native G-mount Medium Format optics paired with the GFX ETERNA 55.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The production utilized three distinct lenses:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>GF32-90mmT3.5 PZ OIS WR<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>GF19-35mmT3.5 PZ OIS WR<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>GF120mm F4 Macro R LM OIS WR<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The combination of ultra-wide zooms and precise macro capabilities allowed the crew to move efficiently without sacrificing visual variety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat we really liked about the film was having these big open, expansive wides, but then also capturing the smaller details,\u201d notes Turnbull. \u201cWhat immediately stands out is just how compact and lightweight these zoom lenses are, yet they cover the full large sensor of the Fujifilm camera. You still have the sharp quality of Fujifilm glass, but in a lighter package.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MANNERS began as a creative vision, developed by director Aisha Schliessler in collaboration with London-based womenswear brand LENY.

Before I think about composition or even raise the camera, I\u2019m already watching how light moves across a table, how it wraps around a plate, and how it falls on skin. In food photography, light and colour carry most of the story. When they feel natural and considered, everything else tends to fall into place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My priority when photographing food has always been balance. I want dishes to feel fresh and inviting without looking overworked, and I want the people in the frame to look like themselves. Natural skin tones matter just as much as the colour of the food. Whether the images are viewed online or in print, that sense of honesty is what keeps them feeling timeless rather than trendy. That way of seeing is what led me to REALA ACE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns has-spacing-none has-no-design is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7

My work often moves between food, lifestyle, and travel, where lighting conditions are rarely controlled and scenes change quickly. What I appreciate most is how clean and balanced the colours feel straight out of camera. There\u2019s a natural calm to the palette, with just enough contrast to give shape and depth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns has-spacing-none has-no-design is-layout-flex

\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>For this shoot, I allowed myself to experiment a little more, particularly with greens. Rather than pulling them back as I often do in my commercial work, where colour is kept clean and almost stock-like, I chose to embrace them. The green tones became part of the atmosphere, sitting softly in the background and almost forming a gentle halo around the scene. It gave the space a more airy, lived-in feel and allowed a more personal layer to come through. REALA ACE handled this beautifully, letting the greens shine without overwhelming the frame, while skin tones and food remained natural and grounded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another reason REALA ACE fits so naturally into the way I work is how effortlessly it responds to light. I often shoot with ambient and window light, where highlights appear and shift without warning. With REALA ACE, those moments never feel harsh or distracting. Light rolls through the frame gently, allowing the image to stay open and calm. It gives me the confidence to commit at the moment of capture, knowing the photograph already feels finished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns has-spacing-none has-no-design is-layout-flex

\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Over time, REALA ACE has become more than just a Film Simulation in my workflow. It feels instinctive, almost like second nature. I don\u2019t have to think about how it will behave or how much I\u2019ll need to correct later. It lets me stay present, focused on what\u2019s happening in front of me rather than what might need fixing afterward. That familiarity creates an emotional connection to the way I shoot, where trust in colour and light becomes part of the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This project was a reminder of how powerful restraint can be. When colour and light are treated with care, images don\u2019t need to demand attention. They draw you in quietly, allowing small moments to hold their own. REALA ACE supports that approach by stepping back and letting the scene breathe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This FS RECIPE is ideal for anyone drawn to images that feel clean and natural, with just enough glow to add character. It\u2019s a subtle balance that rewards patience and intention, and it\u2019s what keeps me coming back to REALA ACE as a foundation for the way I see and photograph the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Light is always the first thing I notice when I walk into a space.

The optics allowed the crew to drastically alter the emotional texture of a scene simply by adjusting the aperture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make the character\u2019s high-fashion makeup and jewellery truly pop, Berwanger stopped the lens down to a crisp T8. Conversely, when a scene called for a softer, more vulnerable tone, opening the lens to T3.5 delivered a beautifully smooth focus fall-off toward the edges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The technical versatility of the system also allowed the team to experiment with formats and stylistic eras on the fly. While they chose the open-gate 4:3 GF mode for maximum flexibility, switching to a Super 35 crop allowed them to repurpose the 90mm focal length to capture unique perspectives while maintaining pristine image quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe knew we would have this shot of a tree, but we wanted to translate our image formula from a very modern perspective into a Y2K look,\u201d explains Berwanger. \u201cThe 19mm especially helped us get a very creative composition, turning the tree into more of a road our character could walk through.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What happens when the roaring crowd goes quiet, the house lights fade, and a global pop icon is left entirely alone with their own reflection?
