Control Corbijn directed the film about the life of Joy Division singer Ian Curtis in 2006. The film is based on the book by Deborah Curtis Touching From A Distance of her late husband. Corbijn tends to put aside the traditional glamor photography, giving his work a more natural feel, often in black and white. The people I photograph gives the impression of being calm and away from everyday life. His photographs show natural emotions. Its patented and influential style images in black and white has been imitated or copied to the point where it has become a cliché rock and a vital part of visual language in the 1990s.

After college, he worked as an illustrator for a short period of time; once this career ended, he made three international trips, which had a great influence on the future of his work, and the type of art that he would hold in the course of his career. He made three trips to Europe between 1906 and 1910. In retrospect, Europe meant France, and more specifically, Paris, by Edward Hopper. This city, architecture, light, art and tradition, decisively affected their development.
