What happens when creative power, marketing wisdom, and startup energy collide? In this episode, Jay sits down with Julie Matzen to explore the journey from agency leadership to startup empowerment. With honesty, laughter, and depth, they unpack the emotional architecture of business: the fear of becoming irrelevant, the power of validation, and the truth that failure isn't a wall—it's a lens.The conversation moves from the dangers of letting AI write your ad copy to the Gen X struggle of feeling unseen, all the way to the radical idea that access to wisdom should be affordable. Through shared metaphors, unapologetic insights, and unexpected childhood stories, Julie and Jay remind us that the real power in business—and in life—comes not from polish, but from presence."Don't let AI be your art. The paintbrush doesn't get the credit."Bio: Julie Matzen is the co-founder of Boarderline and founder of the MayDay Agency. With over 25 years in branding and digital strategy for top-tier brands, Julie now focuses on democratizing access to expert advisors for startups and mid-sized businesses. Through Boarderline, she's building a platform that empowers emerging entrepreneurs to gain real insights from the minds that helped build the world's biggest brands.

The Cinematography Podcast Episode 311: Jacques Jouffret, ASC Netflix's American Primeval plunges viewers into the harsh realities of a gritty, naturalistic Western winter. Cinematographer Jacques Jouffret, ASC, who shot all six episodes, collaborated closely with director Peter Berg to immerse the audience in the era's unforgiving environment. “That was really a lot of hard work. Pete wanted the audience to feel the difficulty of living in that period,” says Jacques. “He wanted to feel the dirt, dust, grime and the ugliness of it and the violence of it. And I tried to get into that spirit. My job was to really make the audience feel that coldness, the chill that you are open to the elements.” Jacques wanted the audience to feel the cold of American Primeval's harsh winter setting, even as the production continued into summer. One of the most significant challenges was maintaining a consistently overcast sky, and there were few interior locations. During the wintertime, it was easy to shoot wider to get the overcast sky, but the weather was constantly changing. Dutch angles worked not only as a stylistic choice, but also to help hide the sky when it wasn't overcast enough. The crew would strategically shoot close, shoot in the shade, or block the sky with silks. Portraying visceral realism is an important element of Jacques and Berg's collaborations. They have worked together before on films such as Novocaine and Mile 22. “That's one thing that I love working with Pete,” he shares. “You're making the audience feel that this is real, you are watching something that is right there and I'm able to suspend that disbelief. And so that's really always the approach, to make it as real as we can. And yet I'm giving it some style to present more of the emotion, more of the mood, the atmosphere, and where I want the audience to be.” To achieve a blend of raw reality and stylistic emotional depth on American Primeval, Jacques adopted a focused visual strategy, inspired by the legendary director Stanley Kubrick. Kubrick would choose just four or five strong visual ideas, and then repeat them over and over for visual impact. For the series, Jacques established his own core visual tenets: Expansive vistas: Super wide shots to take in the vastness of the Western scenery Dynamic Dutch angles: Wide and close dutch camera angles to increase the feeling of discomfort and danger, while still including visuals critical to the story Intimate compression: Lenses with long focal lengths that compress the image, allowing the audience to be with the character in the moment Juxtaposition of extremes: A deliberate contrast between wide, long shots with everything in focus, contrasted with close-ups on the actors with a wide angle lens. This created a visual language emphasizing the harsh environment, and Jacques avoided medium shots.

HT2244 - Sharp vs Tack Sharp Since my earliest days in photography, I've recognized that lenses are far more important than cameras. Lenses touch the light which makes the image; cameras are primarily light-tight boxes that allow us to control how much light gets in, but they don't actually touch the light. Knowing a lens thoroughly is important, especially if you're looking to make a tack sharp image.

Send us a textMartin Parr opens a window into his extraordinary five-decade career documenting the eccentricities of British life and leisure, revealing the philosophy that has made him one of the world's most celebrated documentary photographers.Taking us behind his lens, Parr shares how finding himself "in the right place at the right time" led to his breakthrough project "The Last Resort" in New Brighton during the 1980s – a collection so enduring it's now in its seventh edition. With refreshing candor, he confesses that most of his photographs are "rubbish" and considers himself fortunate to capture ten good images annually, highlighting the relentless pursuit of quality that defines true mastery.Parr's unique ability to create photographs that provoke "ambiguous emotional reactions" – where viewers "are unsure whether to laugh or cry" – reveals the subtle power of his documentary approach. While acknowledging criticism of his work, his substantial following (700,000+ Instagram followers) and exhibitions in prestigious institutions worldwide, including the Tate, Pompidou Centre, and Museum of Modern Art, confirm his profound impact on contemporary photography.Beyond his personal achievements, Parr's commitment to preserving photographic heritage shines through his foundation, which houses not only his extensive archive but also collections from other British documentary photographers, alongside approximately 5,000 photography books. This cultural repository, combined with his mentorship of emerging talent, ensures his influence will extend far beyond his own remarkable body of work.What truly emerges from this conversation is Parr's infectious enthusiasm for finding magical moments in mundane settings. "I'm happiest in a cliché," he admits, revealing how church village fetes and seaside holidays become portals to understanding British identity through his discerning eye. His legacy? "The folio of photos I've built up – an archive of my time in Britain over the last 50 years." A cultural treasure capturing our shared history one extraordinary ordinary moment at a time.Tune in next week for more stories of 'Distinction & Genius' from The Good Listening To Show 'Clearing'.

Send us a textCIOs are pivotal to successful business transformation, serving as the bridge between equipment IT, product IT, and corporate IT to create a unified and agile technology ecosystem. Achieving this coherence requires more than technical oversight—it demands a strategic mindset rooted in business value. Tools like Signavio and LeanIX have become essential in this effort, enabling CIOs to map and model business processes, identify redundancies, and ensure clear ownership across the IT landscape. These platforms not only enhance visibility but also support cross-functional alignment and better resource utilization. However, the true power of Enterprise Architecture lies in its ability to drive adaptability and collaboration among stakeholders. CIOs must champion EA not just as a framework, but as a transformative force that connects technology initiatives to tangible business outcomes. Past failures highlight the dangers of poor communication and lack of executive buy-in, where even well-designed EA strategies can result in underused systems or disconnected goals. Ultimately, CIOs who align IT with dynamic business needs and foster a culture of agility are best positioned to lead through change and deliver long-term value.In this episode, Sam Gupta engages in a LinkedIn live session with Martin Mohr, CIO, RAFI Group in a live LinkedIn session and discusses business transformation from the lenses of a CIO.Background Soundtrack: Away From You – Mauro SommFor more information on growth strategies for SMBs using ERP and digital transformation, visit our community at wbs. rocks or elevatiq.com.

Scott Evans is a photographer based in the Bay Area of the USA. His portrait and commercial work is fantastic and I loved talking to him about his start in photography, the lenses he loves his favourite photography podcast ;)More about this show:A camera is just a tool but spend enough time with photographers and you'll see them go misty eyed when they talk about their first camera or a small fast prime that they had in their youth. Prime Lenses is a series of interviews with photographers talking about their photography by way of three lenses that mean a lot to them. These can be interchangeable, attached to a camera, integrated into a gadget, I'm interested in the sometimes complex relationship we have with the tools we choose, why they can mean so much and how they make us feel.

With the bonkers success of the Fujifilm X100VI, it seemed only a matter of time before Fuji made a compact camera based around its GFX medium format line. That's the recently-announced GFX100RF, a new compact-ish, 100 megapixel, fixed-lens, $5,000 camera. We look at the inventions and the tradeoffs incorporated into this high-res entrant into the compact field.

In this special episode of Focus Check, Nino Leitner is joined by cinematographer and educator Tal Lazar, known for his work with AFI, Columbia University, Sundance, and MZed. Together, they dive deep into what it really takes to become a visual storyteller in today's rapidly changing film industry. Can cinematography truly be taught? Is film school still worth the cost? Why do we obsess over gear when storytelling is the goal? And how can filmmakers bridge the intimidating gap between creativity and technology? Tal shares insightful and often provocative thoughts on education, collaboration, and why the best cinematographers are also great communicators. He also talks about his highly rated MZed courses (The Art & Science of Lenses, Cinematography for Directors and The Language of Lighting), his new podcast VISIUM, and his upcoming book The Language of Cinematography.

HT2206 - Fast Lenses Are Less Important to Me Now Such fascinating technological times we live in! I used to fret and fuss over the fastest lens I could buy in order to keep the ISO as low as possible and the depth of field shallow. But now with DeNoise and Lens Blur via software, I'm perfectly comfortable with a slower lens. Software doesn't work every time, but it does enough times and I don't feel it's necessary to own those really fast lenses.

Adobe has released Photoshop for iPhone, a bonafide version of real Photoshop, not to be confused with Photoshop Express or other earlier variations. We take a look at this new app with one main question in our minds: Who is this for? A programming note: Toward the end of the episode we talk about using the Remove tool in Photoshop and Lightroom, but Jeff forgot to take screenshots. When he tried to reproduce the same actions later, he didn't get the same results as described while we were doing it. So we apologize that we don't have visuals to accompany what we're describing.

God wants us to have a set of glasses on as we look at life that are colored with kingdom lenses. Lenses that are seeing things as he colors them, as he, God, perceives them, as God directs them, as God wants them understood. Far too many of God's people are wearing cultural glasses, or racial glasses, or class glasses, or personality glasses and they see things through the lens of those particular perspectives. God has a set of glasses that he wants us to wear as we look at life, kingdom lenses designed to give you kingdom vision. That is, vision from God's rule, the kingdom is the rule of God. The kingdom agenda is the visible manifestation of that rule over every area of life. He wants you to look at every area of life through his lenses. This is an educational message by Dr. Tony Evans, one of my favorite Teachers. Jaggy, Tedi, and Felix thank you for tuning in and SHARING!

They discuss the perils of punditry; a Biblical taxonomy of empires; DOGE, USAID, and divine judgment; Haggai, Hebrews, and the shaking of the nations, mission and church life; and […] The post Biblical Lenses for Political Theology | Peter Leithart appeared first on .

On this week's episode we welcome David Young, photographer and author of the new book A Brief History of Photography: From the Very Beginning to the Age of Digital. It may feel like photography is only a little more than a hundred years old, but the principles of the art, from lens design to chemistry, have been around for centuries. We had a great conversation about things that surprised David while researching the book, the long obsession with ultra-wide apertures, and more. Author photo courtesy of Alex Hurst (Ireland).
