  1. PRINT IS DEAD. Why are there expectations of a Photographer to include Moving Image?

  2. “Convergence between moving and stills images is a hot topic right now, with HDSLRs, the internet, smartphones and tablets making it easier than ever to record and distribute film. But the barrier between the two has always been porous, and photographers have used everything from 35mm film stock and HD video cameras as well as the new wave of cameras to make movies.” – Taken from the BJP article Keep moving: photographers embrace filmmaking

  3. The Approach • Who we contacted: • CJ Clarke • Jessica Dimmock • Zed Nelson • Tim Gutt • NadavKander • Clive Booth • StanislasGuigui • Laurence Dutton • ArjanBenning • Agencies: • M.A.P • CLM • Visual Artists • Mark George • We Folk • East Photographic Zed Nelson, first feature film, documenting life in Texas People who replied

  4. Photographers and the technology change. “I can’t imagine I would have even considered making a film if it wasn’t for the 5D.” – Jessica Dimmock

  5. “The introduction of broadcast-quality HD video to the latest generation of DSLR cameras has democratised filmmaking, rendering movie capture truly affordable and opening new creative opportunities.” – Simon Bainbridge, BJP’s editor “Canon has revealed that its EOS 5D Mark II and 7D digital SLR cameras were used on the set of Marvel's The Avengers.” - BJP Article

  6. Clive Booth What is the future for the still and moving image and can we deliver more for less? “For we photographers to be a part of this future we have to educate ourselves as film makers.” “Photographers need to embrace this change, this addition to continuing to shoot stills, this necessary adaptation to shooting the moving image; otherwise they will be left behind.”

  7. “I believe we are moving towards a future where we will see advertising on moving billboards, point-of-sale on plasma screens, and read our news, watch TV and be entertained on iPhones, iPads, laptops, desktops and TVs.” - Clive Booth

  8. Conversation with Clive Booth “Even advertisements in shopping centers prefer screens to print now, with the underground evening using moving image whilst you go down the escalator.”

  9. As a student, do you think I should start moving image? “Yes, if you haven’t started then start now. It is important to get involved with the changes. One day we will be called Image Makers.” - Phone conversation with Clive Booth

  10. “As a director you are like a conductor – inspiring people with a vision and then managing them to make that vision a reality” – CJ Clarke “The invention of HDSLR’s made the leap from stills to film much easier and more accessible “ – CJ Clarke

  11. Film stills from ‘Mother and Daughter’ “Organisations that commission are looking more and more for stills and video shooters. It is very much a commercial advantage” – CJ Clarke “The competition rewards those photographers and filmmakers who embrace the new convergence of technology to express their creativity and innovation” - BJP editor Simon Bainbridge

  12. Film still – ‘Mother and Daughter’ “Stills photography as we know it is probably dead; at least on a downward curve that will see it become a more marginalized art” – CJ Clarke

  13. “It is more difficult to make moving images” - StanislasGuigui

  14. StanislasGuigui, The Kingdom of Thieves “Life in the Cartucho is so surreal, it can’t be captured in just photographs.” - StanislasGuigui on his body of work The Kingdom of Thieves

  15. StanislasGuigui, The Kingdom of Thieves “The pressure is only financial.” - StanislasGuigui on moving image

  16. Image by Laurence Dutton All about the money?

  17. Summary • Students should take on the role of moving image. • Those who don’t will lose out on jobs and money. • Its now and the future, we should embrace, whether you like it or not. • Photography alone isn’t strong enough for a portfolio. • Technology is only improving, we should improve with it. • Work experience is key. • Learn the new technologies, if you can. • We’ve got the advantage, take part.
