Key Attraction
Coney Island boardwalk and marine life.
Photography Focus
Photography should capture the bright sun and energy of Coney Island and the dramatic, dark experiences of underwater sealife.
Interior Exhibits
While visitor interactions with marine life may be limited, there are still opportunities to capture dramatic silhouettes and curious gazes set against the blue waters of an exhibit.
Exterior Facilities
Exterior exhibits and shows should capture the energy of Coney Island and the park. While access to marine life may be limited, live shows are opportunities to showcase the larger park and lively interactions between marine life and our visitors. Photos at live events should capture action, movement, and crowd reactions.
People
When capturing clusters of people, ensure the visitors are focused on a single point of interest. Crowd reactions, particularly during live shows, are opportunities to display our entertainment value as part of the Coney Island experience.
Photo Treatments
All photos are treated with a cool, blue filter. Slight purples may appear on occasion when capturing sunsets or areas of Coney Island. Contrast may be applied to bring out highlights and shadows. Photos should communicate energy and benefit from increased brightness. Photos should never appear to be overly treated or "photoshopped."
