Cool idea! I'm always jealous when I see those kids playing in that 'swimming pool' filled with balls! I wish I could do it too! This is a great marketing direction. It's very catchy and it brings nice memories to almost everyone :)

Well done! Thank you for sharing and congratulations on your curie vote!

This user has already been infected! Sneezing at them again does not have any effect.

Hey @rubencress, awesome photos and the idea is really innovative. When I saw your website link: .nl it was clear to me. I studied my masters in the Netherlands. Dutch mentality is awesome with a lot of creativity.

Hope to see more from you :)
Cheers,
M

Building a brand is difficult and I really hope this works for the charity. I think most people look at charities in a different way today and think twice now.

The project was last year, they successfully reached their milestone and went to Manilla to help the kids. It takes a lot of time to build a brand indeed. Thanks for checking it out,
cheers!

Hey, @rubencress.

Some pretty amazing photos. And yet, I'm sitting here thinking about how it all came about. A joker colored suit contrasting a baby blue one (didn't happen to have bell bottoms did it? :). Some kind of rigging to get the camera above them, since a ladder wouldn't seem to be that stable in the middle of all that. Lighting, since places like that are generally in big warehouse type building with poor lighting for taking indoor pictures...

All in all, I'd say very professional and a shoot that was harder than it looks. Which means it's was very much deserving of the curie upvotes. Congratulations. :)

Thank you @glenalbrethsen! Very good analysis as well. A ladder would've been too unstable for the top shots indeed, I used a tripod and extended my arms while having to communicate with the assistant to tell her when to push the button on my remote :), the lighting was inside the area, covered in balls and weighted so they wouldn't risk falling while the jumps were being made.

Thanks again!

BAM! They hired the perfect photographer for this! I like their gimmick lol. Their eyes smile even though they aren't really "smiling" on some shots! You really captured them well.

I like this one the most

_{"But mom, I wanna go back to my childhood"}

Which is me right now tbh.

Wonderful shots as always, Ben! Hope you jumped into those balls after the shoot. ;)

That is unacceptable! When I see you I’ll definitely pull you and force you to dive and jump along with the kids. 😂

Hello there @rubencress!

I am soooooooo envious right now! I know how those balls makes all kids happy.. and adults as well, or you wouldnt have done it if it wasnt.. 😁😂

Im pretty pretty sure you have had hell of a fun doing it. It so obvious in all your shots. I could just wont stop smiling haha.. but my favorite shot was when you two keep looking up. The shot was like you are in a room just full of colorful balls.

I also love the part where you both just lay down like it was just a plain bed. Ohh okay okay, i looooove all the shots! All are my favorites! Haha..

Thank you for sharing your idea of fun today. You simply spread a little happiness in us too. And that is an excellent idea to get a brand notice!

Cheers!

I love the photos and the second pic, wow. Are they being held by something? The guy in blue, I'm sure his leg held on to something because he looks to have gone too far on one side to be standing on his own. I love that at the end, they did some charity.

Hey @fredkese, thank you, it is the shot we used for the campaign! Believe it or not, but they are jumping in mid-air, and that's where I click. Yes, the whole project/event was to create exposure for their charity event. Many people became enthusiastic and they successfully reached their goal :)

Well, congratulations on the @curie upvote first of all; please clap and now please sit down. Anyways, that's great and that sounds awesome to hear; I shall see what the pictures in a second!

Duly noted, but I shall adore the costumes because you said costumes.

Hmm, I love my cooperation and humans working together. We need more cooperation in the business world. Otherwise I need to see these photos now!!!!~

La fotos / Picturas (The photos / pictures): Well they are certainly BADASS! Also I love the fact you captured their silly costumes in the ballpark arena. More-so that these fotos are crystal clear and silky smooth. Also I like how much variety there is in one area with their poses and just their objects at hand! Also looks like I can reach my hand in and shake their hands or grab a ball from the ballpark.

So keep on taking fotos and happy steeming!~
