INSANE CLOWN POSSE

• Insane Clown Posse
• Photographer Paul Mobley asked me to team up with him on a recent shoot, featuring Detroit's own hometown harlequins, the Insane Clown Posse.  It was an intense process – and not just because they made us wear face paint and chug Faygo.
  
  After some early brainstorming and pre-production meetings with Paul, we chose our strongest concepts to execute on set. We were on a tight schedule and wanted to capture as many shots as possible, so we decided to shoot ICP on green screen at their own studio. Then we went on to Greene's Hamburgers in Farmington Hills to shoot the diner image. Next, Paul spent a couple days shooting downtown, precariously positioning himself on the edges of rooftops and coming back down to ground level for shots of dramatic Detroit architecture.
