It showcases the ways in which making music and food are more connected than you might think.</p></div></div><div rbma-image-block=\"\" id=\"body-2\" block=\"block\" class=\"block block-image alignment-wide ng-scope ng-isolate-scope\" ng-class=\"paramsClasses\"><figure class=\"figure\"> <img rbma-image=\"block.image\" class=\"figure__media ng-isolate-scope\" src=\"https://media.redbullmusicacademy.com/assets/camo31.c5ec0799.jpg?auto=format&amp;w=1280\"> <!-- ngIf: block.credit || block.caption --><figcaption class=\"figure__caption ng-scope\" ng-if=\"block.credit || block.caption\"> <!-- ngIf: block.caption --> <!-- ngIf: block.credit --><span class=\"figure__caption__credit ng-scope\" ng-if=\"block.credit\" bind-compiled-html=\"block.credit|inlinemarkdown\"><span class=\"ng-scope\">Julien+Adrien</span></span><!-- end ngIf: block.credit --> </figcaption><!-- end ngIf: block.credit || block.caption --> </figure></div><div rbma-image-gallery-block=\"\" id=\"body-3\" block=\"block\" class=\"block block-image-gallery  ng-scope ng-isolate-scope\" ng-class=\"paramsClasses\"><div ng-class=\"'has-'+imageCount+'-images'\" class=\"has-2-images\"> <!-- ngRepeat: image in block.images --><div ng-repeat=\"image in block.images\" class=\"cell ng-scope\"> <div rbma-image-block=\"\" id=\"image-gallery0\" block=\"image\" class=\"block block-image ng-isolate-scope\"><figure class=\"figure\"> <img rbma-image=\"block.image\" class=\"figure__media ng-isolate-scope\" src=\"https://media.redbullmusicacademy.com/assets/camo21.3330d41b.jpg?auto=format&amp;w=700\"> <!-- ngIf: block.credit || block.caption --><figcaption class=\"figure__caption ng-scope\" ng-if=\"block.credit || block.caption\"> <!-- ngIf: block.caption --> <!-- ngIf: block.credit --><span class=\"figure__caption__credit ng-scope\" ng-if=\"block.credit\" bind-compiled-html=\"block.credit|inlinemarkdown\"><span class=\"ng-scope\">Julien+Adrien</span></span><!-- end ngIf: block.credit --> </figcaption><!-- end ngIf: block.credit || block.caption --> </figure></div> </div><!-- end ngRepeat: image in block.images --><div ng-repeat=\"image in block.images\" class=\"cell ng-scope\"> <div rbma-image-block=\"\" id=\"image-gallery1\" block=\"image\" class=\"block block-image ng-isolate-scope\"><figure class=\"figure\"> <img rbma-image=\"block.image\" class=\"figure__media ng-isolate-scope\" src=\"https://media.redbullmusicacademy.com/assets/camo11.858603c9.jpg?auto=format&amp;w=700\"> <!-- ngIf: block.credit || block.caption --><figcaption class=\"figure__caption ng-scope\" ng-if=\"block.credit || block.caption\"> <!-- ngIf: block.caption --> <!-- ngIf: block.credit --><span class=\"figure__caption__credit ng-scope\" ng-if=\"block.credit\" bind-compiled-html=\"block.credit|inlinemarkdown\"><span class=\"ng-scope\">Julien+Adrien</span></span><!-- end ngIf: block.credit --> </figcaption><!-- end ngIf: block.credit || block.caption --> </figure></div> </div><!-- end ngRepeat: image in block.images --> </div></div><div rbma-text-block=\"\" id=\"body-4\" block=\"block\" class=\"block block-text style-normal ng-scope ng-isolate-scope\" ng-class=\"paramsClasses\"><div bind-compiled-html=\"block.text | markdown\"><p class=\"text-question ng-scope\">How did you settle on Atsushi Tanaka for this project?</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-speaker ng-scope\">Adrien</p>\n\n<p class=\"ng-scope\">Finding the right chef was the hardest thing ever. Not because they didn’t show interest in the project, but more because our schedules were incompatible. They are superstars, always on the move, it’s hard to reach them unless you prepare ages in advance, and sometimes not even then. The first chefs we approached, well you couldn’t even get them on the phone, even to talk about the project.</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-speaker ng-scope\">Julien</p>\n\n<p class=\"ng-scope\">Well, they’re not all open to creation either...</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-speaker ng-scope\">Adrien</p>\n\n<p class=\"ng-scope\">When we met Atsushi Tanaka and told him that Etienne Jaumet was part of the project, he was on board straight away, as he already knew about the music Etienne made with Zombie Zombie.</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-question ng-scope\">And why did you choose Etienne Jaumet?</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-speaker ng-scope\">Julien</p>\n\n<p class=\"ng-scope\">Etienne’s name stood out straight away, there’s something so unique about his music and he’s capable of improvising with all of his machines.</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-speaker ng-scope\">Adrien</p>\n\n<p class=\"ng-scope\">We’d thought of Rone too, but his live act is less visual. We needed something organic, something textured.</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-question ng-scope\">How did their first meeting go?</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-speaker ng-scope\">Julien</p>\n\n<p class=\"ng-scope\">We all met up at Atsushi’s restaurant. Etienne gave him one of his records as a gift and we discussed culinary creation. Atsushi showed us some photos and told us he’d use them as a starting point. Because he’s a vegetarian, Etienne asked not to be associated with meat or fish. So Atsushi suggested an adaptation of a dish he usually makes with fish, Camouflage.</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-question ng-scope\">Did you spend time with Atsushi Tanaka in his kitchen to prepare for the film?</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-speaker ng-scope\">Adrien</p>\n\n<p class=\"ng-scope\">I went to see how he worked. It was important, otherwise we wouldn’t have known what to shoot. We selected the parts that were interesting, visually. You really had to get to know the way he worked by heart.</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-speaker ng-scope\">Julien</p>\n\n<p class=\"ng-scope\">All of his ingredients had been prepared beforehand, so that we could concentrate on the important stages.</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-speaker ng-scope\">Adrien</p>\n\n<p class=\"ng-scope\">Yes, especially as if we’d filmed the whole process, it would’ve taken two days! You need about 12 hours of preparation per dish.</p></div></div><div rbma-quote-block=\"\" id=\"body-5\" block=\"block\" class=\"block block-quote size-medium alignment-left ng-scope ng-isolate-scope\" ng-class=\"paramsClasses\"><blockquote> <div ng-bind-html=\"block.text | markdown\" class=\"ng-binding\"><p>Over the last ten years, there’s been this overload of really disgusting cooking images on TV.</p></div> <!-- ngIf: block.source --> </blockquote></div><div rbma-text-block=\"\" id=\"body-6\" block=\"block\" class=\"block block-text style-normal ng-scope ng-isolate-scope\" ng-class=\"paramsClasses\"><div bind-compiled-html=\"block.text | markdown\"><p class=\"text-question ng-scope\">Is he a chef who is used to performance? Does he have an open kitchen in his restaurant?</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-speaker ng-scope\">Adrien</p>\n\n<p class=\"ng-scope\">No, it isn’t open, but he’s a real performer. He loves it. We could have filmed in as many takes as we wanted.</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-question ng-scope\">And Etienne Jaumet, how did he approach the exercise?</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-speaker ng-scope\">Julien</p>\n\n<p class=\"ng-scope\">Etienne reworked all the John Carpenter film soundtracks, so he knows how to compose for an image or following an action. He quickly sussed out what would be adapted to Atsushi’s working rhythm.</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-speaker ng-scope\">Adrien</p>\n\n<p class=\"ng-scope\">On set, we filmed them both simultaneously but also by themselves. And that allowed each of them to watch the other work. I think that when Atsushi saw how Etienne moved around, he no longer worked in the same fashion.</p></div></div><div rbma-image-gallery-block=\"\" id=\"body-7\" block=\"block\" class=\"block block-image-gallery  ng-scope ng-isolate-scope\" ng-class=\"paramsClasses\"><div ng-class=\"'has-'+imageCount+'-images'\" class=\"has-2-images\"> <!-- ngRepeat: image in block.images --><div ng-repeat=\"image in block.images\" class=\"cell ng-scope\"> <div rbma-image-block=\"\" id=\"image-gallery0\" block=\"image\" class=\"block block-image ng-isolate-scope\"><figure class=\"figure\"> <img rbma-image=\"block.image\" class=\"figure__media ng-isolate-scope\" src=\"https://media.redbullmusicacademy.com/assets/camo6.44843103.jpg?auto=format&amp;w=700\"> <!-- ngIf: block.credit || block.caption --><figcaption class=\"figure__caption ng-scope\" ng-if=\"block.credit || block.caption\"> <!-- ngIf: block.caption --> <!-- ngIf: block.credit --><span class=\"figure__caption__credit ng-scope\" ng-if=\"block.credit\" bind-compiled-html=\"block.credit|inlinemarkdown\"><span class=\"ng-scope\">Julien+Adrien</span></span><!-- end ngIf: block.credit --> </figcaption><!-- end ngIf: block.credit || block.caption --> </figure></div> </div><!-- end ngRepeat: image in block.images --><div ng-repeat=\"image in block.images\" class=\"cell ng-scope\"> <div rbma-image-block=\"\" id=\"image-gallery1\" block=\"image\" class=\"block block-image ng-isolate-scope\"><figure class=\"figure\"> <img rbma-image=\"block.image\" class=\"figure__media ng-isolate-scope\" src=\"https://media.redbullmusicacademy.com/assets/camo4.44843103.jpg?auto=format&amp;w=700\"> <!-- ngIf: block.credit || block.caption --><figcaption class=\"figure__caption ng-scope\" ng-if=\"block.credit || block.caption\"> <!-- ngIf: block.caption --> <!-- ngIf: block.credit --><span class=\"figure__caption__credit ng-scope\" ng-if=\"block.credit\" bind-compiled-html=\"block.credit|inlinemarkdown\"><span class=\"ng-scope\">Julien+Adrien</span></span><!-- end ngIf: block.credit --> </figcaption><!-- end ngIf: block.credit || block.caption --> </figure></div> </div><!-- end ngRepeat: image in block.images --> </div></div><div rbma-text-block=\"\" id=\"body-8\" block=\"block\" class=\"block block-text style-normal ng-scope ng-isolate-scope\" ng-class=\"paramsClasses\"><div bind-compiled-html=\"block.text | markdown\"><p class=\"text-question ng-scope\">Whether it’s music or cooking, these worlds are highly codified as soon as they are filmed. Is this actually something you wanted to avoid?</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-speaker ng-scope\">Adrien</p>\n\n<p class=\"ng-scope\">Over the last ten years, there’s been this overload of really disgusting cooking images on TV. It’s precisely to break these codes that we originally intended to tackle this field. By letting the chef be freer to create, without all those close up shots of all the different stages of preparation, by following him with an over-the-shoulder camera, we ended up with something much lighter, more cinematic.</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-speaker ng-scope\">Julien</p>\n\n<p class=\"ng-scope\">There’s a film I often mention when I’m asked about filming music, and that’s the documentary on LCD Soundsystem. It’s footage of their latest concert, but it’s also a real film.</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-question ng-scope\">And what exactly is a Julien &amp;+ Adrien film?</p>\n\n<p class=\"text-speaker ng-scope\">Adrien</p>\n\n<p class=\"ng-scope\">Good question. In all our films, we’re trying to tell a story. We often mix Steadicam and handheld shots, which gives our films this floating feeling, but also makes them very lively. There are always two long, contemplative shots at the beginning and at the end. Just to make things more cinematographic and not just to document things.</p></div></div></div> <div class=\"body text-layout--center\"> <div class=\"meta meta--story mw-l is-centered--h\"> <div class=\"fl pr-l\"></div> <!-- ngIf: doc.firstPublished || doc.authors.length --><p class=\"oh pt-xs ng-scope\" ng-if=\"doc.firstPublished || doc.authors.length\"> <!-- ngIf: doc.authors.length --><span class=\"meta__author ng-scope\" ng-if=\"doc.authors.length\">By <author-link authors=\"doc.authors\" class=\"ng-isolate-scope\"><!-- ngRepeat: author in authors --><span ng-repeat=\"author in authors\" class=\"ng-scope\"><!-- ngIf: authors.length > 2 && !$first --> <!-- ngIf: authors.length > 1 && $last --> <!-- ngIf: author.type == 'document' --><a class=\"underlined ng-scope ng-isolate-scope\" ng-if=\"author.type == 'document'\" rbma-lazy-title=\"\" slug=\"author.document.typeSlug.split(':')[1]\" pagetype=\"'author'\" href=\"/author/antoine-carbonnaux\">Antoine Carbonnaux</a><!-- end ngIf: author.type == 'document' --><!-- ngIf: author.type == 'name' --></span><!-- end ngRepeat: author in authors --></author-link></span><!-- end ngIf: doc.authors.length --> <!-- ngIf: doc.firstPublished --><span class=\"meta__date ng-binding ng-scope\" ng-if=\"doc.firstPublished\"> <!-- ngIf: doc.authors.length --><span ng-if=\"doc.authors.length\" class=\"ng-scope\">on </span><!-- end ngIf: doc.authors.length --> October 24, 2015 </span><!-- end ngIf: doc.firstPublished --> </p><!-- end ngIf: doc.firstPublished || doc.authors.length --> </div> </div> </div> </article> <structured-story-data><div ng-bind-html=\"trustedHtml\" class=\"ng-binding\"><script type=\"application/ld+json\">\n  {\n    \"@context\": \"https://schema.org\",\n    \"@type\": \"Article\",\n    \"headline\": \"Interview: Julien + Adrien on Camouflage | Red Bull Music Academy Daily\",\n    \"image\": \"https://media.redbullmusicacademy.com/assets/camo31.3f0dcfe7.jpg?auto=format&w=800\",\n    \"datePublished\": \"2015-10-24T00:00:00Z\",\n    \"description\": \"The duo speak about their Paris Now! film that mixes cooking and music\"\n  }\n  </script></div></structured-story-data> </div></div>  <!-- ngIf: isPreview --> </div> <!-- ngIf: doc.additionalMarkup --></div> <notification><!-- ngIf: !waitingForScroll && !notification.dismissed && notification.data.showNotification --> <!-- ngIf: notification.sitsInline --></notification> <!--[if lt IE 9]>\n    <script src=\"scripts/oldieshim.16d1f762019.js\"></script>\n    <![endif]--> <script src=\"scripts/\"></script> <script src=\"scripts/\"></script> <script src=\"undefined?forceLang=en&amp;linkColor=999&amp;bgColor=000\"></script>  ","slug":"/2015/10/julien-adrien-paris-now-interview","metaImage":"camo31.3f0dcfe7.jpg","description":"The duo speak about their Paris Now! film that mixes cooking and music","relatedDocuments":[{"title":"Interview: Pépé Bradock","teaserTitle":null,"teaserSubtitle":null,"teaserImage":{"id":"1_4.e9624415.jpg"},"slug":["pepe-bradock-interview"],"date":"2015-05-26T07:39:19.935Z","type":"story","firstPublished":"2015-05-26T00:00:00Z"},{"title":"Interview: Romain Cieutat on Realness with a Twist","teaserTitle":null,"teaserSubtitle":null,"teaserImage":{"id":"realness-with-a-twist-00.016e667f.jpg"},"slug":["romain-cieutat-paris-now-interview"],"date":"2015-10-17T13:37:40.845Z","type":"story","firstPublished":"2015-10-23T00:00:00Z"}],"data":{"videos":[{"schema":"video","video":{"url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Yhf1oh4u0c","service":"youtube","id":"5Yhf1oh4u0c","caption":"RBMA Presents: PARIS NOW! - Camouflage (directed by Julien+Adrien)"},"poster":null,"blockN":0}],"transcripts":null,"video":null},"pageStyle":{"primaryTypeface":null,"secondaryTypeface":null,"bodyTypeface":null,"primaryColor":null,"bodyColor":null,"secondaryColor":null}}},"pageContext":{"pageTitle":"Interview: Julien + Adrien on Camouflage","slug":"/2015/10/julien-adrien-paris-now-interview","id":"d994960e4f57cd4a26eb14242ab93b6e"}},
