On Set Photographer for Vine FX, London

Thanks to Vine FX, I went to Albarracin, Spain.

BBC's Atlantis creator and producer Julian Murphy wished the looks of the city to look like Albarracin, specially the roofs that are so unique.

The medieval town of Albarracin is situated in the mountain, where the fork of the river flows at its feet. There is a massive and well preserved wall above the city.

The evening of the arrival it rained and temperatures dropped drastically. The next morning there was snow covering the surrounding mountains. The weather eventually played along on the third day. It really looked like the dry weather of Greece where the plot is supposed to take place.

I shot over 1500 pictures for texture reference and matte painting material. Huge panoramas (50k) with 3 exposures.

Season 1 first aired on 23 September 2013.

Season 2 first aired on 15 November 2014.
