Kobe Bryant in Manila 2009


No autograph signing! No photo opportunity with him! They said it’s not part of the contract. But lucky are those involved in the real action. They are the event hosts, the Gawad Kalinga Sagip children, the little kid (with the dad) and the girl who personally received from Kobe the shoes made for outdoor, the Nike Elite Basketball Team, the few production staff and some Nike officials (who also didn’t have an individual photo opp with Kobe, I heard).

Witnessing the return of Kobe Bryant in 3 different locations – presscon in Peninsula Hotel in Makati City, visiting Nike Store in Bonifacio High Street in Global City, Taguig and basketball clinic in PSC-Ultra in Pasig City . Thanks to Ogilvy, for giving Inboundpass the opportunity to closely encounter the Black Mamba and to video cover the event.

I personally took the photos and videos using only Leica C-Lux 2 digicam.
