Moving Fashion Films (Chart)

In 1930s, the Hungarian Martin Munk CSI, a sports photographer, broke into the fashion industry. He took models from the studio to the seaside, and improvised their hands and feet.

On a windy day in November 1933, Carmel Snow, who was appointed editor of the Harper s Bazaar, brought an unknown Hungarian photographer to the Piping Rock beach in Long Island, where they wanted to shoot a large bathing suit.

"It's cold and uncomfortable. It's totally unsuitable for filming holiday movies. Poor Lucile and I were shivering with cold. " Snow later wrote in her memoirs.

Lucile full name Lucile Brokaw, Manhattan famous yuan, Olympic skating champion Irving Brokaw's daughter. Looking at her shaky body wrapped in a Gauze Shawl, Snow felt very frustrated for a moment: "the photographer can't speak English, and his friend's translation speed is very slow."

The photographer waved his arms broadly and gestured, "what does he want to do?" Snow asked. Lucile has understood and started to rush to him. At that moment, Hungarian photographer Martin Munk CSI photographed a photo that was enough to change his personal career and forever carry the history of photography.

Fashion films in 1930s are like acting on stage. Models will only stand stiffly in the studio. And on that bad November day, Lucile's chin stretched and grinned. It seemed so straightforward that she breathed her breath, and the shawl swept up behind her. "This is unprecedented. This is the first pioneering work I brought to Harper s Bazaar. Snow wrote.

The photo of Munk CSI completely captured the spirit of a cheerful American girl, and also resonated with the generation of young women deeply influenced by Katherine Hepburn and Jean Harlow. The impromptu and impulsive impulses in the photos infected the viewer as if she would run out of the picture and break into their lives any time.

"The woman in his camera strides on the beach, unaware of the camera, freed by his dream, and bends his knee from my bed." Photographer Richard Avedon said. When he saw the works of Munk CSI, he was only 11 years old. He tore the magazine and put it on the ceiling.
