ocean70 has been handed the haunted challenge by The Real Mary King's Close following a competitive pitch. Hidden beneath the Royal Mile lies Edinburgh's deepest secret; a warren of hidden ‘closes’ where real people lived, worked and died. For centuries they have lain forgotten and abandoned.
We thought for a while, but hey what a challenge - reputed to be one of the most haunted locations in Scotland! Yvette Fielding, Presenter of Most Haunted said ‘it has to be one of the most terrifying places that I have investigated’.
The brief is to evolve the current branding for the visitor attraction and to capture the feel of the experience through a range of emotive and mood orientated photography. Simple we thought , but shooting through the night beneath the Royal Mile in a location that is renowned for affecting cameras and equipment did sit in the back of our minds.
We have selected Joe Connolly from Simple Photography for the shoot. The work will extent to out door and press advertising, promotional literature and web design - so watch this space, if we make it back!
