Bryan Adams is looking to expand his career behind the camera with a move into movies.
The Heaven hitmaker has made a name for himself as a photographer and he’s now keen to direct a full-length film.
He said: “I would indeed be interested [in making a film]. I can easily see myself as a cinematographer, maybe even a director.
“I remember working with Laszlo Kovacs, who did ‘Easy Rider’, on one of my early videos.
“He had a glass round his neck and was constantly looking at the cloud formations waiting for the right light. Pure genius!”
According to Bryan, technological developments have completely changed photography, with the singer telling Ramp Style magazine: “With smartphone cameras that can capture every moment, everyone can be a photographer.
“The future will be more interactive and intense, and there will be more cameras documenting everything all the time.
“Police body cameras have infrared capabilities to check your body temperature, there will be more drones… these are just some examples.
“That’s not to say it’s a bad thing, because we are now seeing the world like never before.
“One of the most profoundly important things is people using their cameras to document atrocities. Everyone is a photojournalist.
“From eco-terrorism to George Floyd, photos and videos have completely changed our world overnight.”
In addition to his photography work, Bryan will release his 15th studio album ‘So Happy It Hurts’ next year.
“The pandemic and lockdown really brought home the truth that spontaneity can be taken away. Suddenly all touring stopped, no one could jump in the car and go,” he explained.
“The title song So Happy It Hurts is about freedom, autonomy, spontaneity and the thrill of the open road.
“The album of the same name, touches on many of the ephemeral things in life that are really the secret to happiness, most importantly, human connection.”
‘So Happy It Hurts’ is available to pre-order on CD and vinyl.
