Hi :) Very nicely done. You're quite talented. Was this shot in Apple ProRes in log? 422 or 422HQ? The grain issue might be a problem, but I'll check this out. Thanks. Subscribed. Looking forward to watching your other videos. :)
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it :) Yes, it was shot in ProRes log but I’m unsure now whether it was 422 or 422 hq. I probably would have chosen the highest quality so hq is my best guess. I shot it with the BM app and native lenses only.
so beautiful. it hurts . my camera is always set in monochrome. I love B & W. and see that way. all good. but this is superb. magic , I'm old now and will set my camera back to RAW cos I guess there's much I've lost .
I would like to know, Did Saul Leiter edit his photos for certain effects and if so what were his methods? Or was his work just straight out from the film roll to the original print
Good question! I don't remember reading or hearing much about his editing. But his use of reflections, colour theory and negative space in-camera are definitely the main effect drivers, I would say.
You hear about the Fontanelle's at the end of the video. Yes, some family members have been interviewed and there is a part of Richard Fontanelle's interview in the video.
Thank you for this informative video. I’d say it’s the best channel for me to watch and learn more about Street Photography ever. Well putting together and concise contents narrative. This’s a gift. I just ‘liked’ and subscribed. 🎉
At 4:19 the picture of the Deardorff 8x10 was my camera. As in literally my camera that I restored in 1999. That’s my photo of my camera, as well. If you’re going to borrow pictures from the internet, please at least try to credit the source.
Great work, and I enjoyed watching the video. But I found a little mistake. As a member of Leica Historica, I must say that you are wrong about the history of Leica. Leica was a Product of the Leitz company founded in the 19th century and was already very famous for its microscopes. The Leica was developed by Leitz employee and precision engineer Oskar Barnack in 1913. Ernst Leitz the second decided to launch it as a product for his Leitz company. Later in the 1990s, the former Leitz company was splitted into 3 different Leica companies. Leica Camera, Leica Microsystems, which still produces Microscopes, and Leica Geosystems for surveying and geographical measurement.
Alexander, you are right! Thank you for pointing that out! I have to apologise! I was aware that Leica produced microscopes before but must have gotten those details confused. I will put a correction into the description of the video.
Very commendable, I too am a teacher and I teach level 3 BTEC students and a couple of the units that we do involve the use of a 10 x 8 camera and I get them to research Avedon, normally directing them to the ASX website. But this is superb and as far as I can make out researched really well and adds loads to my own knowledge. Thank you very much!
Thank you so much, really appreciate the nice feedback. Great that your students get to use the 8x10! The research of the video is mostly based on the book his assistant wrote. Glad you enjoyed it!
I discovered this channel by chance and I was pleasantly surprised. Excellent work. Of course, I subscribe. Thank you very much for sharing and keep growing.
Excellent work. It's lucky that someone makes these kinds of mini-documentaries so that the rest of us can enjoy them. Thanks a lot. A cordial greeting.
Absolutely riveting Thank you. I've just started reading a biography of Avedon and this video gives me some extra perspective on stuff I've read Excellent 👏👏
