Diogo on "Fama Show" discussing Dreambooks


Diogo was on SIC's "Fama Show" today, discussing the latest ad campaign he is doing with Dreambooks, the photo book company he has been working with since 2009, and who helped create one of the world's largest photo books for "Portugal: Melhor Destino" ("Portugal: The Best Destination."  (You may recall Diogo was an ambassador for this special project, for which he made an AMAZING film about his beloved country, called "Eu sou Portugal" ("I am Portugal.")  

Once again, our amazing Dina was kind enough to send a translation of Diogo's latest appearance on "Fama Show," which can be found right below this short but sweet video.  



Diogo: It's a campaign for Dreambooks, a brand I have been working with for many years, and with great pride.  It's an online platform that allows people instead of losing their photos in the digital world, they can make their album at home, and receive it in the comfort of their homes.
Diogo: We're doing a a portrayal of the World Cup at home, doing a photograph at home of a group of friends, and will be of that moment of celebration, and maybe some beer, and lupins. [Lupins or Lupini beans are very popular in breweries in Portugal as a snack while drinking beer.]
Cláudia Borges/Host: But it stays there til the end of the day. It is better ... Beer...
Diogo: Go, go. There are people here who need to run (looking at the child/his "co-star" who is running away.) We had help here from Rui.  (To the cameraman, jokingly) You are in the artist's intimate, personal space here, do you understand? That's not cool, okay? 
Cláudia: And it's possible we'll catch you like this too? 
Diogo: It is possible, with a banana in hand and underwear. It is possible, yes. It's quite possible. 
Diogo: We imagine the situations and try to somehow portray the moment. It's nice.
Claudia: What have you been doing here in Portugal? What have you been doing? 
Diogo: Sol de Inverno....
Claudia: Yes, because after all ... 
Diogo: He is not dead after all ... The dead is alive and well.
