About

This black-and-white editorial video features a model standing atop a rocky coastal outcrop overlooking a turbulent ocean with crashing white waves. The subject wears a flowing dark ensemble with wide trousers and a deep V-neck top, their garments catching the strong coastal wind. The sequence opens with title cards displaying 'Badlands Journal' before cutting to atmospheric shots of the coastline and the subject posing against the horizon. The cinematography employs high-contrast monochrome framing that emphasizes the dramatic textures of the volcanic rock and the foaming water. The project was filmed in Sydney by photographer Wade Edwards, creating a striking visual narrative.
