Creativity knows
no bounds. Once unleashed, it becomes a potent force that can inspire others
and make life better.
To celebrate
creative freedom, OPPO has released a series of videos featuring The Reno
Collective, local icons who are stretching the limits of their imagination and
defying the limits of creativity by using technology. The videos are headlined
by the OPPO Reno brand ambassadors: contemporary artist Dex Fernandez, film
director Treb Monteras II, musicians IV of Spades, and fashion-forward siblings
Daryl and André Chang. Together, they embody what the Reno series stands for:
creative freedom and artistic expression, effortlessly unleashed with OPPO’s
flagship smartphone series, the Reno and the Reno 10x Zoom.
The videos trace
the creative journey of the artists – how they cultivated their artistry, how
they eventually learned to unleash it with the help of technology, and how it
has made a positive difference in their craft.
Episode 1: Music
In the first
episode, local band IV of Spades share how they started out and took off, and
how they use their music as a playground for exploration. “One of the most
exciting times for us as a band was when we talked and we agreed that we will
take this seriously, that this is no longer a hobby,” recalls Zild. Even after they committed to taking their
craft seriously, creating music was not an easy process. “Sometimes inspiration
will find you, but most of the time you have to find inspiration. Sometimes you
really need to force yourself to find out who you really are,” says Blaster.
For them, “Creativity is freedom… when you have no limits, or when you know
what your limits are.” Badjao adds that “Our music is a never-ending
exploration, a journey. As a band, that’s us. Our music will always grow.”
Episode 2: Visual Arts
For visual
artists Dex Fernandez and Treb Monteras, art should be relatable, meaningful,
and relevant for the masses. “Art is a universal language. But there are things
that are hard to verbalize… and this is when art comes in,” says Treb in the
video. Often, making art accessible and relatable to people requires the use of
technology. “Technology is moving really fast and the only way to survive is to
use it.” Dex, who developed a character
called Garapata, says it is important for art to have meaning. “Whatever I
create, I’ll always give it meaning. Let’s create art that affects people, that
contributes to change… art that is communicative.”
Episode 3: Fashion
In Daryl and
Andre Chang’s cut, the siblings explain why “creativity is about remaking the
ordinary to extraordinary”. “When you like to create, you always get inspired
no matter what. When I get to share it with others, I’m also able to inspire
people. It’s a beautiful cycle,” says Andre. He adds that he hopes to foster
the growth of the fashion industry through their art. “I’m inspired by the
unexpected. The future is an open possibility,” says Daryl.
#FurtherYourVision with the OPPO Reno
For the artists
that make up The Reno Collective, the OPPO Reno and Reno 10x Zoom are the ultimate creative tools that help them
'further their vision' and maximize their creative freedom.
The OPPO Reno and
Reno 10x Zoom are equipped with features that enable creativity and artistic
expression. The Reno comes with a 48MP plus an additional 5MP PDAF camera;
while the Reno 10x Zoom takes it a step further with OPPO’s first
full-focal-length triple camera system featuring 48MP(IMX586), 8MP(wide angle),
and 13MP(telephoto). Further stretching the limits of creativity, the Reno 10x
Zoom comes with the game-changing 10x hybrid zoom and 60x digital zoom – the
first of its kind in the smartphone industry, enabling users to break the
limits of their creativity.
For those who
seek to create music, the phones come equipped with Dolby Atmos speakers. The
Reno 10x Zoom is even accompanied with Audio 3D and Audio Zoom to capture rich
and true-to-life audio output.
Creating videos
has never been more exciting with OPPO’s
iconic Ultra Night Mode 2.0, Color Mapping, and 4K video – allowing artists to
capture everything they want, regardless of light and environmental conditions.
With larger AMOLED screens that completely do away with the notch, this series
allows for a full panoramic and immersive view that makes the most of their
screens – 6.6-inches and 6.4-inches on the Reno 10x Zoom and the Reno
respectively. This notchless design innovation is made possible by the
exquisite new pivot rising camera.
To ensure that
your creative thinking is never interrupted, the Reno 10x Zoom delivers peak
performance through its Snapdragon 855 chipset, while the Reno runs on the
Snapdragon 710. Both units carry 256GB ROM and feature VOOC 3.0 fast charging
which allows low-voltage fast charging while gaming or streaming video, without
emitting excess heat or limiting performance.
Indeed, OPPO’s
Reno series is a breakthrough in smartphone technology, opening a world of possibilities by serving as the ultimate
creative tool for all artists, whether amateur or professional. Watch the Reno
