Bunch of quickies about MIDEM 2009

This year I have to luck to be accredited for the MIDEM as a photographer, which allowed me to attend a talk on how ISPs and Music distributors can work together. Very interesting, it seems the music companies are finally getting a clue. Check out Gerd Leonhard's Pirates Prison Project.

 

A sign of the times : the "official bag" handed to the press (with docs and stuff in it), is Fair Trade (with a Max Havelaar label) and made of certified organic cotton.

 

Lots of iphones. Lots. And netbooks.

 

Finally, first time shooting from the Red Carpet. A tricky exercise. It's probably nicer when the temperature is above 10ºC.
