SEOUL, Korea – June 23, 2022 – Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today debuted Make STRANGER Nights Epic, a short film that leverages the advanced Nightography camera features of the Galaxy S22 Ultra  to pay homage to the popular Netflix series Stranger Things. The video is part of Samsung’s ongoing partnership with Netflix and is available to view now on Samsung’s social channels, arriving just as season four of Stranger Things dropped on the streaming platform.

In the short film, the Stranger Things-inspired theme serves as a fitting backdrop to showcase the Galaxy S22 Ultra’s powerful Nightography capabilities. In season four of Stranger Things, nighttime opens up a portal to an extraordinary world – and the S22 Ultra is used to recreate that distinct style and tell a cinematic story demonstrating how Galaxy technology has the power to capture what would otherwise go unseen in the dark.

Making Nighttime Epic

In Make STRANGER Nights Epic, a young girl puts her Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra in her back pocket while riding her bike to a Stranger Things 4 watch party at her friend’s house. During her journey, her video inadvertently turns on, capturing footage of what’s lurking behind her in The Upside Down. All of the vertical phone footage scenes were filmed with the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra[1].

The short film also makes the most of the Galaxy S22 Ultra’s powerful Nightography camera features, which include a 108MP main camera and a massive 2.4μm pixel sensor powered by advanced artificial intelligence (AI) that allow it to capture more light and data for brighter, crisper video footage, day and night.

Creating a Galaxy of Extraordinary Content

Samsung and Netflix have a longstanding partnership and have collaborated on bespoke campaigns featuring several of the streaming platform’s most popular series. In January, they launched an integrated campaign to help kick off the second season of Emily in Paris, including letting fans “flip the script” and become the lead character in their own animated poster via Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5G.

Samsung and Netflix also teamed up to create a Bridgerton short film for the unveiling of the Galaxy S22 series at Unpacked in February. In the three-minute skit, innovators try to gain the attention of Bridgerton’s Queen Charlotte. Inventor Lord Tristar succeeds when he showcases his visionary creation – massive Neoclassical paintings of the Galaxy S22 and S22+, ready in 209 years.

Samsung and Netflix will continue to work together to create compelling, high-quality content that people love.

Following the May release of Stranger Things 4 volume one, Samsung’s debut of Make STRANGER Nights Epic comes a day after Netflix released the official trailer for volume two, which will drop on July 1.

To further engage and inspire the local youth community to share how they spend their nights in the city in their own ways, Samsung invites you to submit your own versions of an epic night out via Instagram from now until 30^th June 2022.

Each one has its own beat, mood, experience, and feelings.

So capture the best spots to admire the magnificent skyline of the city at nightfall, the fun activities you do to release your joy or even your romantic side – whether it be spending quality time at the park, exploring the great delights in the bustling Changkat neighborhood with friends, or a date at some lush rooftop restaurants with the breathtaking night view in your city.

To inspire the Gen Zs to break the rules of low light photography and videography, Samsung’s newest flagship smartphones, the Galaxy S22 Series launches its newest campaign – urging everyone to #MakeNightsEpic #withGalaxy in your city with the Nightography starting today until 30^th June  2022!

There’s something magical about city at night – the excitement, spontaneity, and beauty of it make us love our city even more, and make us want to capture every priceless moment. But light can be hard to come by when you’re snapping away in places like dimly-lit pubs and restaurants or shadow-soaked streets.

When capturing in low light, the results are always fuzzy and blurry. We often run across issues with light reflecting back into the camera lens, resulting in terrible lens flares and little light patches surrounding the light sources, such as street lights, being caught in photos.

Thankfully, Samsung has built a new low-light camera experience with bigger pixel sensor, Adaptive Pixel technology, Super Clear lens, Super Night Solution, and Auto Framerate for you to capture some of your favourite moments on a big night out! You’ll be able to produce gorgeous, clear low-light photographs and videos with no flares easily.

With Nightography, it completes the story by opening the night and all its possibilities to young city lovers. You can capture and share your epic nights in your city, all through vivid details and smoothness of the astonishing advancement in the Galaxy S22 Series camera technology.

To celebrate the launch, we want you to show us your love, how much fun you have and where you go at night! Show us who you are, how you feel and all your impromptu nighttime escapades, all together #withGalaxy. All you have to do is master all your portraits on the Galaxy S22 Series – after dark in the heart of Kuala Lumpur!
