Then Paloma will tell you about the importance of the briefing, the starting point of any project, be it a commissioned work or a personal idea. You will deepen in the creative development of the idea looking for images, documentation, elements to use, materials, defining the spirit of the final photo, the light, the color palette, the behavior of the liquid in question, etc.
