Our pal, director Joe Mischo returns to the podcast to give us the scoop on his latest short film, Jade! Joining him are Matt Hoodhood, who did the cinematography and Erin Kobrin who worked on costuming. Jade is currently making its way through the festival circuit and should see a wider release in early 2025. ​​*Thank you to Jim Hall for the music!

Born in Indiana and raised in Wisconsin, Joe is a son of the American heartland. As a child, he wasn't pointing a camera or standing in front of one; he was the blabber-mouth recruiting neighborhood talent to help tell his stories. Not much has changed since then. "When I was six, I destroyed my grandfather's brand new Hi8 camcorder by blasting him in the face with a super soaker. This work is my atonement." Matt Hoodhood was born and raised in Grand Rapids, MI where his fascination with light began. He studied Cinematography at Columbia College Chicago and has been living in Los Angeles since 2014 where he enjoys the great outdoors, playing folk music on the banjo, and photography (Todd Hido, Alex Webb, and Diane Arbus are some of his favorites). Erin Kobrin is a Los Angeles-based wardrobe stylist and costume designer known for crafting distinctive looks across fashion campaigns, editorials, music projects, and narrative storytelling. Drawing inspiration from the visionary artistry of Colleen Atwood and the rebellious elegance of Vivienne Westwood, Erin brings a bold and imaginative perspective to every project. Her work seamlessly blends creativity and precision, delivering unforgettable style that captivates and resonates.

In 1989, a month before his fourth birthday, the artist and photographer Trent Davis Bailey (our host, Spencer Bailey's, identical twin brother) lost his mother in the crash-landing of United Airlines Flight 232 in Sioux City, Iowa. Now 38 and a husband and father, Bailey is at work on “Son Pictures,” an ongoing series of photographs piecing together fragments of his family's past, including details of his mother's life and the relationship he was never able to develop with her. Leading him to take deep-dives into newspaper and family photo archives, and from Colorado to Iowa to the Adirondacks, the project serves as a microcosm of Bailey's intensely personal and place-based body of work, which continually seeks to unearth the tangled roots of his identity. This summer, Bailey's first-ever solo museum exhibition, “Personal Geographies,” opened at the Denver Art Museum, and this fall he will release the corresponding project, “The North Fork,” in book form. Bailey is also currently at work on “Son Pictures,” an ongoing series of photographs piecing together fragments of his family's past, part of which was recently published as a New York Times op-ed titled “What a Motherless Son Knows About Fatherhood.” Leading him to take deep-dives into newspaper and family photo archives, and from Colorado to Iowa to the Adirondacks, “Son Pictures” On this episode—his and Spencer's first formal “twinterview,” recorded on their 38th birthday—Bailey talks about what it was like to grow up as an identical twin; his unusual and decidedly dysfunctional upbringing; photography as a device for commemoration; and his deep pictorial explorations of the climates, geographies, and landscapes of the American West.Special thanks to our Season 8 sponsor, Van Cleef & Arpels.Show notes: [00:28] Trent Davis Bailey[09:58] “The North Fork” [10:02] “Personal Geographies” at the Denver Art Museum[10:12] “What a Motherless Son Knows About Fatherhood” [10:18] “Son Pictures”[11:54] Paonia, Colorado[17:37] Elsewhere Studios[20:10] California College of the Arts[20:22] Museum of Contemporary Photography's Snider Prize[20:28] Robert Koch Gallery[22:34] The Sublime[22:38] Shaun O'Dell[23:52] The Hotchkiss Crawford Historical Museum/Society[26:42] Robert Frank[26:53] Stephen Shore[26:55] Joel Sternfeld[28:27] “A Kingdom From Dust”[28:32] The California Sunday Magazine[28:36] Stewart Resnick[28:49] “Who Keeps Buying California's Scarce Water?

加入摄影早自习群,请加微信:nihaoyelaoshi(暗号:喜马拉雅)早安,我是叶梓,今天是摄影早自习陪伴大家的第2164天。© 秋山亮二前段时间不是跟麦麦一起去看了《你好,小朋友》的展览吗,当时也给大家做了一个分享,我说秋山亮二老师是有连线,在开幕式的现场来跟我们分享一下他的经验的。其中我就知道了一些很有趣的小细节,比如说秋山亮二用的是禄来的双镜头反光镜照相机,那种相机用的是120胶卷,每一卷只能拍12张正方形的照片。那也就是说他每拍一个或者是两个孩子,然后就要去更换胶卷。作为一个新闻记者出身的摄影师,来中国抓拍中国的孩子们,用一个那样的胶卷相机,那真的是要点本事的。禄来双镜头反光镜照相机 图片来源:祥升行相机博物馆在现场中国摄影家协会的两位老师——毛老师和萨老师也提到了他当时一个神奇的本领叫做换胶卷,他说秋山老师换胶卷的时候,速度快的让他瞠目结舌,很快那个胶卷就取出来了,塞进了新的胶卷又开始拍下一卷了。而秋山亮二用的这个相机还是一个手动对焦的相机,所以他的对焦速度其实也是非常快的,同时还要手动的设置光圈和快门,这个本领真的是非常重要。秋山亮二秋山老师自己也说,说我作为新闻记者,因为有很扎实的基本功,所以我能抓拍到我想要的那些笑脸,那些场景,我想这是他这组照片成功的一个很重要的原因。那由此我就想到了现在的摄影的情况,我们现在都用数码拍、手机拍,我们不用换胶卷了,一直可以拍下去,要拍到卡满也不太容易的。再加上现在的相机自动对焦速度都很快,连后进生富士,它现在的新的相机的对焦速度也让人相当的满意了,曝光就更不要说了,早早就是自动的半自动的了。所以我们现在几乎可以毫无障碍的去进行抓拍,只要你朝向那个方向打开人脸识别,然后你打开高速连拍按就好了,比起以前来真的要容易太多了。© 秋山亮二唉,这个时候就产生了一个新的问题。过去的照片抓拍的少,摆拍的多,所以抓拍它本身就是一种价值,让我们看到了80年代的中国的小朋友最自然的状态。这种照片在当时本来就是罕见的,因为其他人拍呢,大多数是摆拍,大多是化好妆,定格在那里,让你来拍摄。© Alex Webb那在现在抓拍这么容易的情况下,我们还会这么稀罕抓拍这件事吗?其实不会了。所以现在在街头拍摄的那些摄影师们,他们除了抓拍以外,可能还会重视更多的东西,比如说一种巧合,一种人物形态和环境之间的巧合,一种人物身上的颜色和环境颜色和车辆颜色之间的巧合,或者讲究符号,讲究我的画面中的这些物体它代表什么样的意义,能给人什么样的一个想象空间等等。也就是说当抓拍不再稀罕,我们就得追求别的东西。提顿山与蛇河,怀俄明州大提顿国家公园,1942年 © 安塞尔亚当斯这种情况在摄影上其实发生过很多次。我又想到一个例子,过去美国的著名的风光摄影大师安塞尔亚当斯,他拍摄了很多美国西部高山上拍摄的无人区的照片,特别的壮观,特别漂亮。当时安塞尔朗斯为什么那么红啊,原因很简单,因为当时那些地方真的是人迹罕至,普通人根本上不去,看不到那的风景。而安塞亚当斯他最大的爱好其实还不是摄影,是登山,他是登山俱乐部的一个资深成员。所以当他开着他的车,把大画幅相机运到山的半山腰,再背着它走一段,是吧?拍下一张无人区的山顶的照片的时候,那真的是非常浪漫的,这种照片一旦发表出来,很多人都会很喜欢。可是现在呢,事情变得很简单了,哪都很容易去,有公路,大家都自驾。而且登山的条件也越来越好了,大家都有什么冲锋衣啊,帐篷啊,要是海拔太高太冷的话,还有暖宝宝啊,你总是有办法可以到达那个地方。所以这种拍山脉山区大风光的人就越来越多,那大家还稀罕吗?好像也没有过去那么稀罕了,你现在再要拍那些照片,别人就会觉得真美,然后就完事了,它并不会流传的那么的广。所以你发现没有,随着时代的迁移,时代的进步,随着条件的改变,我们过去在创作过程中一些非常罕见的或者非常难得到的画面,一些非常难做到的拍摄题材,它在现在会变得越来越普遍,它的独有性的价值就会大量的降低,然后我们就会有新的追求。这种循环其实非常有趣,一方面我们总是在追求新的东西,追求着诗与远方;另一方面,一旦到手,我们就会萌生出新的欲望去追求更新的东西。这个事儿我不能说它是个坏事儿,不能说它是个缺点,我也不想说应该小富即安,应该守在自己的舒适区里面别出来了,大家就小确幸就好了。其实在我的眼里,正是这种从追求到拥有,从稀罕到不稀罕再到追求的这种循环过程,才是我们进步的阶梯。我以前老是听到有同学在问我说:叶老师,我们就想拍点美美的不好吗?我的回答都是好啊,挺好的呀,我不会跟他说后面的话,为什么呢?因为当他大量拍摄这样的美美的照片的时候,拍摄他已经能熟练掌握的这种拍摄题材的时候,总有一天他会腻了,他就会想去追求新的东西,这种过程是自然而然的,所以我不用去劝他们。也只有从他心底生出来的这种新的追求,才是真正的能促使他进步的动力。好,今天我们就从秋山亮二的换胶卷的速度开始聊了这么多,希望多多少少对你有点启发,你也可以把自己的想法发在留言区,我们一起来讨论,一起来进步。你可以说说你有没有已经腻味的风格的照片,然后你现在正在追求什么样的风格的创作?好,那么今天是摄影早自习陪伴大家的第2164天,我是叶梓,每天早上6:30,微信公众号以及喜马拉雅的“摄影早自习”栏目,不见不散。

Alessia Tagliaventi"Colpo d'occhio"Le fotografie fanno coseContrastohttps://contrastobooks.com/Un libro delle meraviglie, pensato per giovani occhi, per conoscere la fotografia, osservare la realtà con sguardo diverso e giocare con le immagini.Ogni pagina sarà un invito a una scoperta, a un viaggio, a una conversazione con le foto. Giochiamo a osservarle, scoprire i dettagli, scovare le domande che ci pongono, chiederci perché ci piacciono o non ci piacciono.Colpo d'occhio. Le fotografie fanno cose di Alessia Tagliaventi è un libro ricco di immagini, diverse sorprese e molte storie di fotografia per giovani occhi.Le immagini ci parlano, scovano i dettagli più nascosti della realtà, ci pongono domande, sono ambigue perché non si svelano mai fino in fondo, permettendoci così di immaginare anche quello che non dicono. Le fotografie possono fare tante cose: ci emozionano, ci fanno riflettere, ci divertono, stimolano la fantasia e la curiosità, ci portano indietro nel tempo e lontano nello spazio, ci invitano a inventare storie. Suddiviso in quattro sezioni (Personaggi, Luoghi, Oggetti, Animali), il volume presenta una straordinaria serie di immagini di grandi fotografi e fotografe, da Elliott Erwitt a Luigi Ghirri, da Garry Winogrand a Helen Levitt fino ad Alex Webb tra gli altri. Ogni immagine è accompagnata da un breve testo di Alessia Tagliaventi che la racconta e guida nella lettura, evidenziandone gli aspetti principali, ponendo domande e dando spunti per la possibile creazione di storie sempre nuove.Al libro è allegato un cartoncino con un foro, da usare come una cornice per entrare nell'immagine, giocando a cercare i dettagli che più incuriosiscono, oppure per osservare il mondo alla ricerca di possibili nuove inquadrature. Un'educazione all'arte della fotografia in modo interattivo che stimola ad allenare lo sguardo e aggiungere il proprio punto di vista ai diversi sguardi sulla realtà. La fotografia può raccontare storie, mostrare il mondo, ma anche inventarlo. Un libro per conoscere, approfondire e prendere spunto per ideare storie, guardarsi intorno e, perché no, cominciare a fotografare quello che ci colpisce. Alessia Tagliaventi è editor, curatrice, e docente di Storia della Fotografia. Per Contrasto ha seguito numerosi progetti editoriali ed è autrice di pubblicazioni e saggi critici sul linguaggio fotografico. È stata anche coautrice, con Michele Smargiassi, dei fascicoli Maestri di fotografia, in abbinamento con La Repubblica e National Geographic.

Se me antoja difícil transmitirte el impacto que el invitado de hoy - con el que arranca la segunda teporada de Calle Oscura - ha tenido en mi vida. Recuerdo perfectamente la primera vez que sostuve en mis manos uno de sus libros, era un ejemplar de Fotografía de Viajes (https://amzn.to/3uFU6Iq) que encontré en una estantería de una biblioteca pública hace un buen puñado de años. Me lo llevé a casa y lo devoré de principio a fin tan fascinado por las imágenes como por las palabras. Con aquel pequeño volumen aprendí muchas cosas, una de las más valiosas que es posible enseñar divirtiendo. Entonces ni lo sospechaba, pero aquel libro de color amarillo anaranjado acabaría por convertirse en una de las semillas de lo que ha acabado siendo mi vida. En todos estos años Tino Soriano no ha dejado de enseñarme e inspirarme. Es uno de los pocos fotógrafos con los que en algún momento me dije aquello de “yo quiero hacer esto”, antes de entender que cuando tienes la suerte de descubrir a grandes como él lo mejor es subirse a sus hombros para encontrar tu propio camino. En este episodio hablamos de - La conveniencia de olvidarse de la cámara de vez en cuando. - Esa parte menos visible - y también mucho menos agradecida - del trabajo de reportero. - Compatibilizar encargos y trabajo personal. - La transición de la fotografía analógica a la digital. - Todo lo que nos puede enseñar los lugares que conocemos bien. - Cómo disfrutar de los lugares que visitamos. - Viajar bien. - Dedicar tiempo a las personas con las que nos cruzamos. - Que la fotografía es el resultado de la experiencia. - Y una excusa para compartir nuestra vida. Entre muchas, muchas cosas más, y es que tantas décadas de carrera profesional dan para un buen puñado de lecciones que Tino comparte con todos nosotros. Quién me acompaña Tino Soriano nació en Barcelona en 1955 y vive cerca del lago de Banyoles, un lugar que en sus propias palabras le ha enseñado mucha fotografía y al que recientemente ha dedicado BanyolesSpeculum, uno de sus, por ahora, veinte libros. Fotógrafo y comunicador, el trabajo de Tino ha sido reconocido por la Unesco, la Real Sociedad Fotográfica y las organizaciones del World Press Photo y el Premio Nacional Piedad Isla, entre otras muchas entidades que componen una lista interminable. Pensad en una publicación relevante y Tino habrá publicado en ella sin lugar a dudas: Geo, Altair, El País Semanal, Time Magazine, Paris Match, Der Spiegel… Y sí, también en National Geographic, de la que se enamoró de pequeño en casa de su padrino, con la que trabaja desde hace más de 20 años y que lo ha reconocido como docente experto.

La Fotografía Callejera es mucho más que los clichés trillados, fotos-anécdota y una determinada estética. Si buscamos – incluso dentro de las plataformas y las redes más populares – es posible encontrar trabajos de esos que nos enseñan a mirar el espacio que transitamos cada día con otros ojos. Hace mucho tiempo que sigo y disfruto de las imágenes de Ernesto pero, aunque nos conocemos en persona, nunca habíamos charla de dónde vienen y cómo ve la calle… Hasta ahora. En este episodio hablamos de Que a veces un fallo es en realidad un desvío para acabar acertando. Cómo “coleccionar objetos” puede llevarnos a series fotográficas. Localizar temas recurrentes mientras trabajamos con nuestro archivo. Pensar en el conjunto y no solo en las fotos sueltas. La importancia de llevar la cámara encima, siempre. Que la herramienta influye en el proceso. La conveniencia de vagar sin rumbo. Cómo el lugar en el que estamos condiciona lo que vemos. Que podemos construir, echar todo abajo y volver a empezar, y que eso nos puede ayudar a evolucionar. La importancia de jugar, experimentar y divertirse. Y por supuesto de muchas cosas más que surgieron durante la charla. Quién me acompaña Ernesto Peña, madrileño y nacido en 1978, tiene una de las galerías más elegantes y bellas que he visto, consecuencia de una capacidad envidiable para construir imágenes engañosamente simples (oirás su risa en el episodio cuando le digo esto), llenas de color, formas… Y espacios.

En un mundo de pantallas y pixels, donde consumimos miles de imágenes a diario casi sin ser conscientes, los libros de Fotografía y fotolibros – que no son lo mismo, aunque pueda parecerlo – siguen manteniendo intacta su capacidad para atraparnos y llevarnos de la mano a un mundo propio. Así que aquí está este nuevo episodio de Calle Oscura, en el que me siento a charlar de Fotografía y páginas de libros con alguien a quien le gustan tanto como a mí y de quien no dejo de aprender constantemente. En este episodio hablamos de - La experiencia de adentrarse en un fotolibro. - Cómo la inspiración puede colarse desde el lugar más inesperado. - La importancia de cultivar nuestra cultura visual. - Las conexiones entre palabra e imagen y cómo se influyen mutuamente. - La relación entre fotografía y otras formas artísticas. - La conveniencia de interesarte por lo aquello que está en las antípodas de lo que haces (y de lo que te gusta). - Que empezar copiando puede ser una gran manera de cultivar una mirada propia. - Por qué los trabajos clásicos son imprescindibles. - Que hay distintos fotolibros para diferentes momentos vitales. - Cómo acercarse a ese mundo desde cero. Y, claro, de muchas otras cosas que fueron saliendo durante la charla. Quién me acompaña Leire Etxazarra es una apasionada de la Fotografía y de los fotolibros, algo que se nota – y mucho – en todos sus proyectos. El primero fue un blog muy bien escrito y lleno de información valiosa (y entretenida, una combinación irresistible), a aquello le siguió un canal de Youtube dedicado a sus libros favoritos, que comparte y analiza desde una óptica muy personal.

¿Tiene la Fotografía analógica, la de toda la vida, sentido en pleno siglo XXI? ¿Por qué complicarse la vida con carretes de solo unas decenas de exposiciones, laboratorio y largas esperas hasta poder ver lo que hemos conseguido? A pesar de sus aparentes limitaciones (que, por cierto, no me parecen necesariamente algo negativo) la Fotografía química tiene mucho que ofrecernos, y precisamente como consecuencia de sus particularidades y de todo aquello que la diferencia de lo digital, puede ayudarnos a mirar y a capturar el mundo que nos rodea de otra manera. En este episodio hablamos de - Todo lo que nos aporta fotografiar en película aunque nos movamos con soltura en el mundo digital. - La posibilidad de empezar por muy poco. - Cómo cambia nuestra forma de vivir el proceso. - Lo sencillo que es montar tu propio laboratorio en casa. - Que fotografiar en analógico no es más caro que lo digital (ni siquiera tanto). - Todas las decisiones que tomamos antes de fotografiar en película. - La enorme cantidad de posibilidades creativas de lo químico. - Cómo dar el paso de forma muy sencilla. - Por qué fotografiar en analógico es sinónimo de control, aunque pueda parecer todo lo contrario. - Y que nos puede hacer mucho mejores fotógraf@s. Y, claro, de muchas otras cosas que han surgido por el camino. Quién me acompaña Chechu, aka Herman Toothtrot es un apasionado de la Fotografía química que se ha montado su propio laboratorio en casa y que ha convertido la difusión de lo analógico en su gran proyecto profesional. Por encima de todo, Chechu defiende otra forma de fotografiar, más pausada y consciente, consecuencia de ralentizar y controlar el proceso en todos sus pasos. Y todo esto con un estilo muy personal y ameno que me enganchó desde la primera vez que me crucé con él en las redes, hasta el punto de tiene gran parte de la culpa de que cada vez me sienta más atraído por la Fotografía como se hacía antes… Y ya os adelanto que este episodio de Calle Oscura no ha hecho que se me pase, precisamente.

In episode 86 UNP founder and curator Grant Scott is in his shed considering perceptions of creativity within photography, how the past ten years has impacted photography and the opportunities that technology has given us to tell visual stories and communicate. Plus this week photographer Homer Sykes takes on the challenge of supplying Grant with an audio file no longer than 5 minutes in length in which he answer's the question ‘What Does Photography Mean to You?' If you want to hear more about Homer's friendship with Bill Jay mentioned in this episode and find out why and how Bill Jay was one of the most important people in the evolution of British photography at the end of the 20th Century you can by watching our feature length documentary on Jay's life featuring Homer, Martin Parr, Ralph Gibson, Paul Hill, Anna Ray-Jones, David Hurn, Alex Webb, Brian Griffin and Daniel Meadows here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wd47549knOU www.donotbendfilm.com You can read the review of Grant's latest book by Cary Benbow here www.fstopmagazine.com/blog/2019/12/book-review-new-ways-of-seeing-the-democratic-language-of-photography-by-grant-scott/ Homer Sykes was born in 1949 and is a Canadian-born British documentary photographer. He was a keen photographer as a teenager, with a darkroom both at home and at boarding school. In 1968 he started a three-year course at the London College of Printing (LCP), and during his first year, went to New York, where he was impressed by the work of photographers - Henri Cartier-Bresson, Bruce Davidson, Lee Friedlander, Robert Frank, Burk Uzzle and Garry Winogrand — that he saw at the Museum of Modern Art. Whilst considering a new photographic project at college, Sykes came across a story on the Britannia Coconut Dancers in an issue of In Britain magazine. This led him to research other local festivals in Britain at the archives of Cecil Sharp House, London. Sykes' photography of these festivals was inspired by that of Sir Benjamin Stone, but he approached them with a modern sensibility and a small-format camera, after absorbing advice from photographer David Hurn, then a part-time lecturer at LCP, as well as other photographers that he met through Hurn, including editor and writer Bill Jay. Sykes moved on to photographing news stories for the Weekend Telegraph, Observer, Sunday Times, Newsweek, Now, Time, and New Society. He worked with various agencies including from 1989 to 2005 with the influential Network Photographers. Sykes also photographed the British landscape for various books but always found time for his own projects including Hunting with Hounds, and On the Road Again, photographs of four North American road trips taken over three decades. Sykes has taught on the Master's course in Photojournalism and Documentary Photography at the London College of Communication and in 2014, the Maison de la photographie Robert Doisneau, Paris, held a major exhibition of Sykes' work from the 1970s. He photographed the glam rock, punk, new wave and other music/fashion scenes of Britain and his work has been consistently published as a series of short narratives by Cafe Royal Books and as a major monograph My British Archive: The Way We Were 1968-1983 by Dewis Lewis in 2018. Homer continues to document the British way of life today and lives in South-West London. www.homersykes.com Grant Scott is the founder/curator of United Nations of Photography, a Senior Lecturer and Subject Co-ordinator: Photography at Oxford Brookes University, Oxford, a working photographer, and the author of Professional Photography: The New Global Landscape Explained (Focal Press 2014) and The Essential Student Guide to Professional Photography (Focal Press 2015). His next book New Ways of Seeing: The Democratic Language of Photography will be published by Bloomsbury Academic in 2019. © Grant Scott 2019
