How to shoot this aesthetic

"Digital maximalism collides with pop fantasy the screen is the stage and everything is content"

Shot list

  • Portrait of subject surrounded by multiple screens showing different content simultaneously, their face lit by the aggregate glow
  • Subject wearing headphones and interactive tech accessories, posed with bold graphic elements behind
  • Action shot at a gaming or streaming setup with multiple colored LED light sources competing

Lighting

RGB LED panels in competing hues; no single color should dominate; cyan, magenta, and yellow provide the widest gamut and the most cyberpop color combinations
