Photography The Art Of Visual Story TellingSince the first cave paintings graced their place on the wall between 43 500 and 42 300 years ago1 people have sought to visually capture the moments around them, to leave their interpretation of themselves and their environment for others to ‘read’.
Jump to today with the advent of digital cameras, smartphones equipped with cameras, online social networking sites such as Facebook, MySpace,Twitter and applications such as Instagram or programs like Photoshop and anyone is able to record these moments - no drawing skills required. Not only record these brief glimpses but style them to reflect their personal descriptions and expressions for others to construe. The responsibility of a working photographer is not to tell their own story but to describe the subject before them for others. A visual report of either the wider world around us or individuals - from the Queen of England to an unknown starving baby in Sudan. Usually these are the images found in newspapers, magazines and art galleries. The more eloquent the description used, the more widely celebrated the photographer and their images. For some good examples Google names such as Annie Leibovitz, Joao Silva, Seth Casteel and check out http://www.clippingdesign.com/blog/few-famous-photographers- and-their-photography/ Pet Photography There are two reasons for pet photography; firstly to have a pet immortalised in a printed image and secondly as a draft for a pet portrait. Photos are also used by breeders and shelters to advertise available animals. A commissioned pet photo shoot will either take place at the photographer’s studio or in an environment where the pet is comfortable enough to relax and play. Taking photos of animals when they are relaxed makes for better images. Internationally renown photographer Annie Leibovitz recommends talking and offering lots of treats. 1 New Scientist, Fergal MacErlean, First Neanderthal cave paintings discovered in Spain, 10/2/2012 |
