From December 11-20, pioneer image-maker and founder of SHOWstudio Nick Knight, will make [100 portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glass-portraits) for i-D Magazine's 30th anniversary. Knight will allow the public to watch this creative process with the usage of a two-way mirror.

Today, a Lady Gaga shoot took place at SHOWstudio. Each day, the shoot will be broadcast from the [Live Studio](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/music-venue-history) from 11:00 GMT.
