Curve simply love cars. Making beautiful looking sheet metal is only half the story though. Conveying mood, emotion and feeling through their work is equally as important.

The guys haven't allowed current conditions to halt their production or their progress. 

They continue to offer the very highest quality automotive imagery through whatever means possible, and because photo-shooting has been restricted recently, Curve launched RealVision. The instant rendering solution to incorporate fully created environments with photographed people and cars. The perfect way to deliver assets during these difficult times.

Anton has been shooting for years while working across all the corners of the globe, but 2020 will definitely be a year he will never forget. Anton and his team have had to adapt and work out new workflows which involve remote shooting interactions, code-red projects and most importantly new safety protocols on set. Shoots pre & post Covid have been going extremely well while navigating the new protocols and needs of his clients.

2020 has proven to be a very productive yet diverse scope of work for Anton, shooting lots of video & stills, both in the real world and in the virtual CG world. Anton kicked off 2020 with launching a brand campaign in CGI for BMW’s CoC deptartment, with the new electric iX3 which is out now.

"I’m Rebecca, a food, beverage and product photographer based in Los Angeles with more than a decade of experience behind the camera. I’ve worked in a wide array of photographic specialties from beauty and portraiture, to cosmetics and now focused on everything food. This weird path makes me an expert in on set problem solving, food and product styling, creative set building, and on the fly posing, resulting in a well rounded versatility, prepared for any hiccups along the way. 

I’ve shot for restaurants, cookbooks, ad campaigns and social media for clients like Maybelline, Dole, Endorphin Chocolate, Hungryroot, Belcampo, many excellent alcohol brands and food charities like Food Forward. 

Since food is supremely important, to respect it properly I strive to avoid harmful food styling tricks that will render the food inedible and donate leftovers from set as I know firsthand how prevalent food scarcity is in all of our communities. I’m also reasonably fun."

"I am exceptionally lucky to do what I do for a living. I try to stay rooted in this gratitude. Every. Single. Day. Sometimes I pack a suitcase and my camera and travel somewhere where the quality of the drinking water is questionable just for gratitude maintenance. I somehow leave with my favorite work.

Besides shooting, reportedly my greatest strength is working and playing well with others. Since my career began shooting musicians and celebrities, I understand and appreciate eccentric personalities. I want people to have a good time on my shoots and know that I have their back. I will deliver. So they can relax and enjoy the experience."

Clients include: Amazon, Munchkin, Coca-Cola, Target, Ford Motor Co, Carnival Cruises, The Bellevue Collection, Jack Daniels, Verizon, Cracker Barrel, Dell Computers, Dreamworks, Fast Company, Fox Sports, Hanes, The Irvine Company, MGM Grand, Miller Brewing Co, Pepsi, Sony Music, Sony Playstation, Sunbeam, Virgin, Warner Brothers, 150 Worth, Pfizer, Maui Jim Sunglasses, West Point Stevens, and Wrangler Jeans.
