Mobile Photography Awards Shortlisted
I submitted some photos to the Mobile Photography Awards and am happy to have been shortlisted. The image below of a severed bird wing is a contender, but there is some stiff competition. As a finalist I am flattered to be in the company of two iPhone photography artists whose style I recognized immediately and respect immensely, Benamon Tame and Tuneart. (I suggest you search both names on Instagram and follow them.) The Judge of the category I am considered for is Nettie Edwards. You can learn a bit about her here, or fancy her twitters and tweets here.
iMAGES: an iphone photography exhibit
Thanks to everyone who came out to October's First Friday event in Scranton. I was excited to show work at The Grove Media. October marked the one year anniversary for The Grove Media, Scranton's only Apple certified specialist, so it seemed only appropriate to create an exhibit of photographs captured with an iPhone and then processed with various and often multiple apps on the phone or an iPad.
Unfortunately the exhibit was only up for one evening, but I created a page on my website of the show. You can click the image above to access it or click iMAGES.
New etsy Images
I been adding to the images available as Giclee prints to my shop at etsy.
First Friday Oct. 7th 2011
Join me on the 7th at The Grove Media for an exhibit of my photographs. The show is one night only, the First Friday of October, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. The images have all been captured with an iPhone and processed with various apps on an iPad or an iPhone. This show will also celebrate the one year anniversary of The Grove Media, which is the only Apple specialist in Scranton. Come support local.
Everhart Panorama
I recently learned how to photograph 360º panoramas and shot John Kascht's studio for the Above & Beyond: John Kascht app so the viewer can take a tour of the room in which John creates many of his caricatures. The app, created by Joe Zeff Design, lets you scroll through John's portfolio, see the preliminary sketches, and hear about the process and backlash of many caricatures. The app was submitted to Apple last week for review. It ought to be available in the next few days. Until then, I am sharing this test panorama that I photographed at the Everhart Museum.
Reader's Digest, September 2011
In this video I shot for the iPad edition of Reader's Digest, John Kascht talks about how his caricature was shaped by the distinct comedic styles of Jerry Lewis, Zach Galifianakis, Judah Friedlander, Larry the Cable Guy, Wanda Sykes and Joan Rivers.
Above & Beyond: John Kascht
Joe Zeff Design shared a sneak peak of its latest iPad app Above & Beyond: John Kascht at The Society of Publication Designers' event SPD Speakeasy: These Guys Kick Apps on Tuesday evening.
It's an honor and exciting to be working with Joe (and Katie and Ed) on this project. The app is a dynamic interactive window into John Kascht's extremely insightful caricatures as well as a slight hint at his life away from the drawing board.
In the youtube video below, Joe Zeff demonstrates a few of the app's features.
