I finally watched Garry Winogrands Doc yesterday! I remember watching Everybody Street with my brother in the theatre when it came out and I just got my first GR and discovered Street Photography through that film and Street Photography Now book. Good times. Haven't seen the Martha and Feinstein Docs yet. Looks very promising!
Everybody street is special eh? I like the variety of photographers in it. Showing everyone from Boogie to Mermelstein, and how they all have this weird thing in common - they can't stop taking pictures :) Cheryl Dunn, the director, has a new documentary about outsider artist Dash Snow and it's really good too.
Shoutout to the Harry Gruyaert 'Photographer' documentary. Always feel like he's one of the forgotten ones but his colour work is phenomenal and the film really goes into detail about how he works.
There use to be a William Klein documentary on RU-vid but got taken down. I loved watching it and it’s my most watched photography doc. He’s my inspo when it comes to taking photos.
Thanks for making this video. I made it to the first video mention before I paused this video and started watching everybody street. Will return to watch the other suggestions after!
Such wonderful images by such talented people. For me the image @ 4:58 really stands out, one of my all times favourite pictures. The mans stride, the 2 girls legs and arms all in line with the kite strings and the horse kite! Absolutely amazing picture, just perfect.
The burning shoe - "How much film do I have?" LoL Great tips, I've seen a couple and I'll seek out the others. My Framelines magazine is on the way, I am looking forward to it! Thank you for the great content.
Amazing video, Shane. Have you watched the documentary Finding Vivian Maier? For me is one of the most unbelievable pieces of the history of street photography.
Great video! Great suggestions. Two more: “A Choice of Weapons” about Gordon Parks and “Ricky Powell: the Individualist” These have probably already been mentioned and are not strictly about street photography but still very good…
Really appreciate that your channel dedicates itself to the art and your homage to those who have inspired many of us. At the same time you provide a generous forum for today's artists to create and distribute their work. Thank you!
One of my favourite docs is 'In No Great Hurry' (already mentioned in the comments). Possibly doesn't quite meet the criteria but completely charming nevertheless. There is a series from the BBC 'What Artists Do All Day'. It spends considerable time with several artists but the episodes on Tom Wood would interest many street photographers.
Whilst not street photography per se, The Genius of Photography - which is a BBC series from around 2006 - had some great interviews with people like Parr and Meyerowitz in it. The series still inspires me today as it takes photography from the early days of Talbot and Daguerre until the point it was made when digital was just starting to become more relevant.
That's a great series. Alan Yentob interviewed parr for the 'World According to Parr' documentary and there's a great 2 part series on Tom Wood too- both are available on youtube
@@frame-lines Ooh, I'll check those out. It's always good finding different things on YT outside of the endless torrent of gear reviews! Parr's small world has just been reprinted by Dewi Lewis FYI...
Thanks Shane, I got a few to check out from your list! Haven't seen 'In No Great Hurry' in the comments, a 2013 doc on Saul Leiter. Loosely around getting a book together and his take on life/photography.
I really liked 'In no great hurry' for what it was. I'd love to see another Leiter doc that covered his career, and different aspects of his photography like fashion and his early black and white work
@@frame-lines Haha, my shout for popcorn if someone will actually do all the work to make it. I think there’s a William Klein one here on youtube as well? A few to (re)watch now! Cheers mate.
You got the most important one which is "Everybody Street".. Here are a few more: [RU-vid] "The Many Lives Of William Klein" / Khalik Allah "Slang Aperture", "Antonyms of Beauty", "Heron Arts" / Christopher Anderson "Entering Worlds Through Photography" ... That's all i can remember right now. 👌
Great Magazine! Excellent, stimulating channel. Thanks for this excellent list to follow up on…its probably a bit cheesy of me but I was blown away a few years ago by the Vivian Mair film when I watched it by chance..which encouraged me to think that anyone could experiment with street photography ……which I have done and continue to do!
Thanks. I have EVERYBODY STREET on Bluray and the WNOGRAND and ROBERT FRANK docs on DVD. I will definitely check out FILL THE FRAME and CONTEMPORARY...USA. Wonder if you would consider FINDING VIVIAN MAYER a street photography doc? I do, albeit in conjunction with the "found treasure" aspect. She was prolific for sure.
I do love her photography but Finding Vivian is more about the story of the discovery rather than street photography itself- that’s why I didn’t include it
Love this list, have only seen about half of these :) I might be biased, but highly recommend the 30min doc Reely&Truly. Easily found on YT. Two other photog films I've worked on are: Show me the Picture: The Story of Jim Marshall, and Brigitte, a short doc about Brigitte Lacombe.
Pretty good list, with the exception of 'Fill The Frame'... didnt think much of that one at all, though we both agree on 'Everybody Street'... it's superb. As was the Winogrand one. There are a couple of decent Vivian Maier ones out there...the BBC did one, and John Maloof made a doc feature as well. There's also an amazing Jim Marshall doc on Amazon Prime too. He's best known for his music work, but did plenty of street stuff too.
Quite a hard watch, but McCullin is a superb documentary. Thinking about it, it’s not street photography, and is a hard watch, but I think it’s a must see.
Hi guys, regarding your Frameline Magazine - is it possible that you don't offer shipping to Germany?! I honestly couldn't find the option to select Germany or Deutschland...
How were you able to watch the Garry Winogrand one in the UK? Each place I've gone says its unavailable in the UK and I can only buy the DVD on amazon. Thanks! Nice video and glad to see some cool films included. Tim did a great job on his film as a first time film maker!
I just bought Fill the Frame on Vimeo and didn't like it. Looks like it tries too hard to be a copy of Everybody Street, and for that, I think it is a big missed opportunity. Although it managed to gather a special group of photographers the structure is the same of Everybody Street: interviews, clips from NY, and a photography critic talking in between. I would make more sense trying to do something different, or, if you're going to keep the same structure, maybe doing it in a different city (London or Tokyo for exemple) would be more interesting.
Tbh, street photography remains the New York ghetto of photography... Most street photography(tm) today is still trapped in the squalor of this enclosure. Copying mindlessly the thin genre that came before them. Very few attempt to transcend this to actual documentary work, to embew their photo series with substance, emotion, truth, etc... I can think of less than a handfull.
