Ben Hupfer is fascinated by the 1950s and 1960s, particularly the film noir genre and its distinctive visual style. Film noir is characterized by expressionist lighting, creating high contrasts and shadows. Ben Hupfer draws inspiration from the urban settings and late-night scenes often found in film noir, particularly in Times Square and Broadway. By photographing at night, he captures the city's urban lighting and the mesmerizing lights of moving vehicles. To depict the sense of speed and movement, he uses a tripod and long exposure times. This technique allows him to convey the dynamic energy of the city. To recreate the nostalgic mood of the 50s and 60s, Ben Hupfer employs a unique color palette, layering dominant reds and blues while preserving the intensity of black and white. This deliberate use of color creates a vintage aesthetic that instantly transports viewers to that era.
