How TODD HIDO creates ATMOSPHERE
Todd Hido's photography connects with me on an emotional level. It makes me feel something. It triggers my imagination into inventing the narratives for these situations. With the absence of people, I place myself into the story. And this is why I think Hido’s work connects with so many people: because it invites us to create our own personal narrative.
Places we associate with activity are disconcerting when that activity is absent. While in films and TV shows, the fear is focussed on what we might find hiding around the next corner: the zombies, the monsters, the people whose intentions may not be in our best interest, I think this trope resonates so deeply with people for a slightly different reason. I think it taps into a fundamental fear many of us have of being truly alone.
Ultimately Todd Hido’s work connects with us because we make our own connection with it. The lack of clear, objective narrative in his imagery means we channel our own experience and feelings into it, and that has the potential to make a connection that feels profoundly strong and deep. For me, Hido has found the perfect balance of evoking a feeling that resonates with many people, while leaving the specifics of interpretation for the viewer to create themselves.

@eighteenfiftynine 3 года назад

I was gutted when I first saw Hido's work. Someone had already done everything that I realised I was trying to do with my own photography, and far better than I ever could. I can't relate to your sense of disturbance at these liminal spaces, they feel so homely and welcoming to me.

@jamiewindsor 3 года назад

So much is down to our own personal experiences. I kind of love that about his work. It's like I'm not being lectured to, just invited to feel something.

@duncandavies1966 3 года назад

It's a different feeling for everyone I guess. Large empty urban spaces/buildings definitely creep me out.

@keltonfloyd 3 года назад

@@jamiewindsor what do you think about Daido Moriyama? I would love to see a video on his work just like what you did here with Todd. For me, he is one of these photographers that can put tons of emotional content into a single photo (in his case, using very unorthodox techniques).

@Ivan-xg1zo 3 года назад

Took the exact words right out of my mouth. I just got into DSLR's and am even considering film because of him now. But I think we can do it our own way, it can never be the same anyway

@sharlacourtenay1470 3 года назад

I have loved Hido's photography for years and they make me feel cozy and warm too. I guess we can picture ourselves inside and curled up. I live in the North and so during winter these real images are everywhere while I am driving in the country. I also love fog, it makes some feel creepy but it makes me feel like I am in an enchanted world.

@colorgradingcentral 3 года назад

Jamie you opened a door to me that I didn't even know was there. Thanks for the insight into this world of Todd Hido, I will now be more aware and cognizant when I see this style of art and understand why I feel the way I feel observing it.

@Aaron_Noia Год назад

This homes series reminds me of the feeling I get when I talk to the NPCs in the video game, Bloodborne. All the player can see is the window and facade of an old Victorian era home. You hear the voice of someone so clearly inside paired with an echo of their voice. It creates an image in your head of what the NPC and the inside look like almost perfectly without actually showing it to you.

@5disguised 3 года назад

It taps into that F E E L I I N G. When you walk home from your friends house as a kid. At night and you see a neighborhood house with a blue window where the tv is illuminating the window on the top floor. You wonder what it’s like in there but you are in the cold. It’s like anti cozy but it’s also comforting.

@DEADLINETV 3 года назад

We're moving house at the moment and yesterday I set foot in the old house. Now nearly empty except for the furniture that belongs to the landlord. We have lived there for 2 years and made it our own although it was a rental. Seeing it stripped down kind of makes it uncanny. The staircase is mostly as it was, so when I walked down my brain tricked me into thinking I was in the full furnished house again. But I wasn't, of course. It was like I was stepping back in time, but it was an alternate, emptied out universe. No girlfriend or cat present. I got the same with those shots. Thanks for this video!

@tackywon5700 2 года назад

To me .... this is about waiting in the theater's lobby (at the stairs to the balcony) to meet a date who hasn't yet/never did come. "Stood-up, broken-hearted again." Projecting? Probably so. This is what we are invited to do with such art.

@nottodayisay 2 года назад

I've come back and watched this video a dozen of times, each time with a new discovery. It's definitely changed how I see and feel about Hido's work and now I'm the biggest fan. Thank you for this masterpiece of a content, Jamie!

@RhysticStudies 3 года назад

to me, the beauty and poignancy of liminal spaces and their corresponding blogs, photo albums, videos, essays, is the stripped-down and unartistic quality of the aesthetic. Hido's work, in contrast, is very intentional, surgical, composed, full of light manipulation and balancing. it does not feel truly liminal or unnerving, because it emerges within the safety of the editing room. consider, in contrast, the totally cynical and stripped-down aesthetic of a security camera staring at a staircase in a high school. the image produced is functional. its subject is the human insofar as the human can be monitored and analyzed as data, as information. this is the tonal difference between the disturbing images that come out of thinking and capturing liminal spaces in their raw form and what I see in Hido's highly manipulated and cerebral photographs, which only hint at that feeling.

@ablueslenz 3 года назад

The algorithm failed me as a subscriber to this channel. I’ve been in a liminal space and wondered why? Now, I realize it was because I had not watched one of your videos in a while(Patreon here I come). Glad I came across this. Hido is new to me, but I’m glad you profiled him here. This is the type of photography I love. I call it dark moody realism (simply because I couldn’t find a “proper” name for it). I will definitely check out more of his work. I’m glad you mentioned Stranger Things because I think I love the series because of the photography just as much as I love the plot and characters. The unsettling images keep me riveted to the screen. Thanks, as always, for such an in-depth discussion of photography. You’re the best!

@TheBigNegative-PhotoChannel 3 года назад

fantestic video jamie, one of the best even. buthonestly. I've never felt this in todd hido's work. your music tries to imply this and I can emphasize it. however, I've always found his houses comforting because the light shows that there are still people there and you're not alone in the night. so different can be the perception. I am also constantly in dilapidated houses on the road. I find it nice there. 😅

@blue_ranger 3 года назад

Nice vdeo. Good description of that feeling. I definitely experienced it during the first lockdown of 2020, had to pick up something from a shop in a usually bustling shopping centre, it was bizarre, no music, no people murmuring and chattering, absolute silence, with the only noise being the squeak of my shoes on the polished tile floor echoing with extraordinary reverberation. Of course there was also the feeling that 'should I have been there picking up some spectacles for someone else who cannot see? Would the police ask me if this was essential?' This was back in april, when the media had convinced many people we were all going to die.

As a species we’re used to people, especially in familiar places. Even the hermit in the cave takes comfort there are people in the outside world. We have an innate fear of being totally alone. Hido’s work brings that fear to our visual senses.

I love how you inspire others to ask questions. You leave people with more questions, but necessary ones. There was a time when I was thinking "I want to be a photographer", it evolved to "How can I be a better photographer", but this led me to a path of equipping myself with more equipment that I had time (I am doing it as a hobby) and ability to facilitate. I couldn't find myself, didn't know what kind of photography I want to do, many pictures I have taken, felt good technically but I am tainted with all that notion to satisfy people over internet and constant question "what people would find attractive?". I forgot in this chase for "better" thinking about viewer, what is actually better for me. Watching you simply reminded me, that there are no universal answers, there are only interpretations and I should focus on how I want to show "my world". Thanks for helping me to look at these from different perspective, where I can at least try to find something for myself, not something others expects me to be as photographer.

Its not hard to look into a Todd Hido photograph and not think of the desolation and abandonment left behind by the lives lived and departed from the spaces seen in the photos. Here I suspect, the simple clarity of loss looms large for most of us, as does our own desires to fill the voids with our imagination, and personal inflections. For me personally, I think his photos open doors into the dark shaded corners of my own memories those of my adolescent mind, long trapped and almost forgotten.
