George Rippon Photography: Knowing Yourself
http://georgerippon.blogspot.com/2011/05/knowing-yourself.html
Sunday, 29 May 2011. These are my notes on working through these self-knowing questions. To summarise the key points:. At present I am struggling to define myself to anything more specific than a 'creative'. Happiness is success, not the other way round. I would be content to have a 'normal' job for a living, and work creatively outside of hours, thereby removing the stress. However would be great if the two could come together at some point. Efficiency is not my strong point. Final Two-way Mirror shoot.

The reason for reposting this is that the discussion on my positive outlook towards collaborative work has become all the more relevant following the 'knowing yourself' session. The Walk' Short Film.

George Rippon Photography: Jenny Saville
http://georgerippon.blogspot.com/2011/05/jenny-saville.html
Wednesday, 11 May 2011. In collaboration with fashion photographer Glen Luchford, Jenny Saville produced the photographic series C losed Contact. These striking and graphic self-portraits (Saville was the model and had directive control) arise from her continued interest in confronting perceptions of feminine beauty - often through large-scale painted nudes, placing emphasis on flesh and voluptuousness. About her work – go from 7:07). Her response was then to produce the Closed Contact. What remains uncl...

http://georgerippon.blogspot.com/2011/04/two-way-mirror-project.html
Tuesday, 26 April 2011. The Two-way Mirror Project. The initial test shoot. With the two-way mirror rewarded me with little, but taught me a great deal. The most significant lesson learnt was that it's all about the light, of course! Where I purchased mine from):. My solution to this - bin bags. And clothes pegs. 28 April 2011 at 20:55.

http://georgerippon.blogspot.com/2011/05/final-two-way-mirror-shoot.html
Thursday, 5 May 2011. Final Two-way Mirror shoot. Here's a contact sheet of the majority of the shoot (minus some errors and repeats). The difficult decision-making process of which ones to exhibit now begins. I also shot some video on the day. The first is a video performance alike to the photographs. It is a combination of the rehearsed expressions from above, and spontaneous play acting similar to that found on the Gorgeous Georgeo video blog. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Sunday, 14 March 2010. These days I seem to be spending an increasing amount of time in front of the computer. Alongside this comes ever greater opportunities for distraction and mind wandering. Whilst wandering, one has ideas. 14 March 2010 at 20:24. Im scarred for life! Good stuff though, glad to see some creativity coming through.
