vivo brings professional photography closer to mobile users through the upcoming vivo V70 Photography Masterclass, led by celebrity fashion photographer BJ Pascual, streaming live on April 30.
The session highlights how smartphone photography has evolved into a creative tool for both professionals and everyday users, powered by the capabilities of the vivo V70.
Live masterclass focuses on real-world photography techniques
The livestream will be hosted by Nicole Cordoves, with Pascual demonstrating how to approach photography using three styles:
- Editorial photography with storytelling and mood-driven composition
- Cinematic portraiture focused on depth and lighting
- Film-inspired visuals for nostalgic, stylized content
Instead of focusing on theory alone, the session will show how these styles can be executed in real time using a smartphone camera.
vivo V70 pushes ZEISS-powered mobile photography
At the center of the masterclass is the vivo V70, equipped with a 50MP ZEISS Super Telephoto Camera designed to bring more controlled and detailed imaging to mobile users.
The device supports multiple creative modes, including AI Stage Mode, ZEISS Multifocal Portrait Mode, and Film Camera Mode 3.0, which let users experiment with different photography styles without needing professional equipment.
Smartphone photography continues to blur professional boundaries
The session reflects a broader industry trend where smartphone cameras are increasingly capable of replicating professional photography techniques.
Features like telephoto lenses and AI-assisted shooting modes are allowing creators to explore more advanced visual storytelling without relying on dedicated camera gear.
Designed for creators and everyday users alike
Beyond technical features, the masterclass emphasizes accessibility—showing how everyday users can improve their photography using composition, timing, and lighting rather than expensive equipment.
As smartphone brands compete in the imaging space, education-driven campaigns like this help position devices not just as tools, but as creative platforms.
The vivo V70 Photography Masterclass streams live on April 30 at 6PM via vivo Philippines’ official Facebook page.
