Wärtsilä is een internationaal technologiebedrijf uit Finland dat zich richt op innovatieve oplossingen voor de maritieme sector en energieproductie. Met hun focus op efficiëntie, duurzaamheid en betrouwbaarheid spelen zij wereldwijd een belangrijke rol in de toekomst van scheepvaart en energiebeheer.

 

Tijdens SMM in Hamburg, één van ’s werelds grootste vakbeurzen voor scheepsbouw, maritieme technologie en machinery, werd ik gevraagd om drie dagen lang de aanwezigheid van Wärtsilä vast te leggen. Mijn opdracht was om de stand, innovaties, panelgesprekken, workshops en de vele ontmoetingen met bezoekers te documenteren.

Zoals bij dit soort evenementen werkte ik met mijn vaste setup van twee camerabody’s om snel te kunnen schakelen tussen overzicht en detail. Naast fotografie was er ook behoefte aan video. Hiervoor nam ik videograaf Dennis Simons mee om samen een aftermovie van het event te realiseren.

Elke dag leverde ik een selectie beelden aan voor social media en artikelen. Na afloop van het event volgde de volledige beeldselectie, samen met de aftermovie, zodat Wärtsilä ook na SMM over sterk visueel materiaal beschikte voor hun communicatie.
