Quick Info:
Client: Lens School
Produced by: Leap Films
Director / DP / Editor: Ben Coope

Overview:
Len, a Sydney-based photographer and educator, wanted a short film that revealed his creative identity and his philosophy on art. The challenge was to capture depth and authenticity without overproducing — keeping the intimacy of a real artist’s process.

Approach:
Shot over one day with a small crew, we combined natural light, hand-held movement, and honest soundbites to create a minimal but powerful portrait.

Results:
Awarded Gold at the 2021 Australian Cinematographers Society (NSW) for Branded Content. The film became a core piece of Lens School’s brand identity and continues to attract students through its emotional honesty.
