Bonnie Schiffman: Documentary Shorts

To promote the launch of famed celebrity photographer Bonnie Schiffman’s collection of NFTs on OpenSea, I produced a series of documentary shorts inviting viewers into “The Bonnieverse” as she shares the first-hand stories behind her iconic images. Each video highlights a specific theme or work—her deep love for the Polaroid SX-70, the ritual of starting every shoot with a great lunch to build trust, and the unforgettable experience of photographing Muhammad Ali in the twilight of his career. These personal reflections, paired with her timeless portraits, offer a rare, behind-the-lens look at her process, capturing not just the celebrity, but the humanity of her subjects. Together, these short films provide a moving visual journey through Bonnie’s artistic legacy.
