I was the Assistant Production Supervisor for Daring Foods’ first-ever live-action brand campaign called “Daring Moves.”
As a brand that's committed to taking on an outsized challenge and effecting positive change, Daring Moves is a way for the company to express its support for others doing the same across a wide variety of domains. The platform launches with Olympic Bronze Medalist and World Champion, Miles Chamley-Watson, a fencing athlete known for challenging the status quo in and outside of his sport.
From challenging conventions in fencing to making moves in the fashion industry, Miles Chamley-Watson has consistently forged his own path in his career. This film is produced by Honor Society and directed by Molly Schiot, acclaimed director and creator of “The Unsung Heroines,” and the photos were shot by esteemed photographer Raven B Varona, who’s worked with the likes of Beyoncé and Nike.
