Corey Rood, Director of Photography, Los Angeles

Description

This portrait captures a Black man standing centrally on a city street, wearing an orange zip-up jacket and dark trousers with his arms crossed. The image features a distinct vintage lo-fi VHS aesthetic, complete with chromatic aberration, scan lines, and heavily compressed textures that evoke 1990s video tape recordings. In the background, urban architecture, parked vehicles, and towering buildings line the street under daylight conditions. Visible text elements in the upper left corner display the Adidas trefoil logo alongside the words CONTINENTAL 80. The composition is vertical, framing the subject against a dense metropolitan environment with a strong sense of nostalgic texture.
