"I had this short video put together to give people a sense of what it was like to work with animals in a studio environment. It’s 5 minutes compiled from over 5 days of actual shooting, so it represents only a tiny fraction of the real time involved with each subject. This particular part of the Affinity project took place on an expansive sound stage in Los Angeles that was selected for its ability to accommodate even the largest of mammals such as elephants or giraffes. All the animals I worked with there were brought in from nearby ranches in the southern California area where they lived. Although they were usually booked for 2 - 4 hours apiece, I was lucky to get a few good moments with each one. This was the great challenge of the series, but spending time with the animals, regardless of the artistic outcome, was the great reward." –Brad Wilson
