MALTESE DOWNUNDER TV IS A COMMUNITY TV PROGRAMME,

I co-produce & present on CHANNEL 31 with Marlene Scicluna.

One of the things we are very proud of is the stories we have been able to show focused on people of Maltese origin working in the Arts, Sport & Sciences.

When we set upon this journey we decided that it would be great to use Portraits of each participant to promote each episode of the show on social media. These images are a selection of Portraits from the first 3 seasons produced in 2016. All I can say is WOW!, I have seriously met some amazing people this year. Everyone from Paul Capsis, Michael Zerafa, Jason Grech, Jovan Grech from Tenisha and Deborah Abela to name but a few.

In most case these shots were shot very quickly and with very little time to prepare yourself. Therefore, the settings would have been completely unknown to me and in most cases I needed to try and find an interesting background or something to shoot the subject. When I set upon shooting these images I tried to leave hints of the persons story out of the shot. As time has passed I’ve relaxed this rule as sometimes it’s too irresistible to not show that side of the person.
