From Buddha to Blade Runner with Julian Elliot

Japan has a rich history of Buddhism and as such has some beautiful Buddhist temples that are found throughout the country. But Japan is also known for its amazing cityscapes in places such as Osaka and Tokyo. Tokyo helped inspire some of the backdrops for the film Blade Runner so it seems only apt to present the two converging and intermingled "cityscapes" of Buddhism and modern. Julian will take you through the planning of the trips as well as how he captured the old and new style of architecture. 

Julian is an award-winning professional freelance landscape and travel photographer as well as an occasional writer based in the Loire Valley, France. He travels across Europe, usually encompassing France, Italy, and the UK.

His photography and stock footage has been sold across the world in nearly 40 countries through agencies such as Getty Images.  They have been used as magazine spreads right through to commercial and product sales. The footage has been used in things such as corporate websites or part of a TV broadcast.
