OPERATING THE STORIES ARE TRUE.
WORKSHOP WITH CARLOS Spottorno.
The workshop presentation sounded close, Carlos Spottorno wanted to share their motivations, their experiences, their projects, their doubts, their trials and their models; wanted to share us why he had chosen some pictures and not others. I wanted to tell how he managed to edit Western China, a very thoughtful book, with a very large research process and that the photo fits the final puzzle, reasoned motivation to go to Xinjiang, located in western China , and show the oil and gas wealth and the life of a Muslim Uighur inhabitants.
began with a warning, "the picture is in crisis" . That caught our attention so we went feet to the ground. He continued that "the photographer is not a star .. . ", As it does in other areas.
We warned it is essential that our recycling technology and all the audiovisual field to add value to our product (internet as a means of disseminating our work) and personal motivation is what actually makes us face the complicated challenge of publishing books.
stressed the importance of choosing the subject very well (should motivate us and not just any topic) research to prepare the project, make sure that nobody has done before and to be clear what want.
Carlos showed us pictures of himself in which he saw clearly his references pictorial or photographic film. We talked about the need for our image bank.
The workshop addressed the importance of narrative and editing. He told his working method and the whole process to go from about 10,000 photos he shot in Xinjiang to finally survived. Also its decisions on the design of the book, models, different titles and finding a publisher.
Carlos is reasoned All in all thought. At each step there is much work.
To our photos used the same filter used for himself, tactfully but honestly.
Highly, highly recommended.
