"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enthis video is brought to you by Squarespace welcome back everyone it is that time once again we are going to open some mail submitted by viewers like you before we get going I want to mention something and I said this in the last video is that I feel like mail time I definitely enjoy doing it I get wonderful work submitted I love seeing your work and I love sharing that work with other people I think we all have something to learn from this I think though that we're at a point where I'm starting to think that Mail Time needs to evolve into its next iteration I'm not really sure what that looks like I'm definitely going to do this through the end of the year but I'm saying this because if you have something to submit you want to do it in this format I would do it sooner than later so there's that and of course I'm completely open for suggestions too so if you have a different way you want to see this or you have a suggestion as to maybe a better way it could be done leave a comment below I'm kind of working on this and thinking through it over the next six months so I'll keep you posted another thing I would do is stay tuned here but also if you haven't subscribed to my newsletter it's all photography stuff I do those once a week it comes out on Fridays you should sign up it's pretty cool I don't spam and if you don't like it you can unsubscribe so I'll drop that link below too but without further Ado let's get to some of your mail alright so first up and this is really cool this is absolutely outstanding this is a book called New York unseen this comes to us from Luke Cordis you might recognize some of the work in this book Luke has sent me a series of zines before that have kind of culminated up into this book into this I wouldn't say it's a collection it's very different from the zines even though you see some of the material in here I love the scenes that Luke sent in and this book is absolutely outstanding New York unseen is more or less Luke's Love Letter to New York City it is an outstanding book Luke is a very capable photographer he shoots in a wide range of styles there's a wide range of subject matter in here and what I love the most about this is that I don't think that I would classify New York unseen as what we would call conventional street photography per se now I've talked about street photography and videos before and this is not a knock against street photography but it is a tough genre to shoot in because there's spend so much that's been done before and there's since to be in the Modern Age a little bit of a sameness and I think Luke is an example photographer who breaks out of that sameness and I really love what he's doing here and what I really like about this is that he challenges himself in terms of shooting conditions like literally nothing in New York City is off limits uh obviously doing a lot of shooting up there we have a lot of things that are in different times of the day different times of the year we have snow we have summer it is an all-around encompassing uh kind of 360 view into New York city so what a lot of us would call street photography is certainly an element to this but I would also argue that Luke is getting into architecture into urban landscape at least and in some cases you have weather shots and you have things that go beyond just Urban landscape so a couple observations that I have with New York unseen here first of all this is really well printed is really well done and I want to make note because I think there's some things that a lot of people can learn from in here first of all it is pretty much all photographs it has a flow to it a rhythm that it goes with the spread in the layouts it's they're not dependent on one another necessarily like they would be in a more conceptual type of work but they do relate and they do make sense and they do tell stories and another comment that I want to make and I think this speaks to Luke's style a lot and something that I really like I don't want to call it the decisive moment because that's awfully tried to do in the context of street photography obviously that was the great Henry Cartier song selling point but I think there is a dramatic point I think there is a sense of drama that Luke looks for and there is something that is unexpected in the work and I think that is something that is very difficult to do for any artist and definitely in photography it's one thing to capture things that you see or interpret a moment or you know especially when you get into street photography you're photographing what's going on around you but to be able to contextualize that down to one specific thing that creates that element of excitement and that element that's unexpected and I think that definitely is echoed in the cover where you have the clown riding the subway but you also see it and across the elements that are in this book in general I think for me what this does is it ends up personifying the very best of what New York City is and it's kind of weird and I have very mixed feelings about this because I have spent most of my career working in and out of New York City I've never lived there but since the probably mid to late 90s I've gone to New York at least once a year if not multiple times a year and I think that all common culminated in 2019 or so when I was in New York at least every month and there was a couple months where there was there twice and it's very weird because that all shifted for me because when covet hit and all that I travel stopped and I really have not been doing much traveling a little bit and I haven't been to New York City since and this book is something that actually really makes me miss New York City it really is a culmination of the best of what that is for me I will put a link to this in the show description if you want to buy a copy of this I would highly recommend it this is one of the better things that's been sent in a while I'm really impressed Luke you've done an outstanding job and it's really cool when people have sent in work before and I've done a lot of these Mail Time episodes I my estimate is that I'm going to have 300 book scenes or prints reviewed by the end of this year it's been a lot and what's really cool is when I see people who sent something in one time and then they send something in later and it got even better than it was the first time and Luke's lucazines were really good if you guys saw those I think they were maybe a year ago when I when I did those I'll link to that in the show scripture up here if you want to see those two it's really cool to see the difference of how the work has gotten better and a lot of this comes down to this too and I know I'm rambling about it but I will say this there's kind of two sides to photography when you get into doing a book or a Zine let's say there's the side of actually being able to shoot a great photograph or something that you're very happy with and and have that live on its own and then it's another thing when you compile that into a collection of work or something that's Bound by a common theme and I think that creates a whole nother series of complexities and I think it's one thing to develop your talents and skills as a photographer it's another thing to be able to edit and present your work that way and Luke is clearly doing both of them very well here so I'll put a link to this in the show description Luke thank you for sending this it is awesome okay so next up is this little Zine this comes to us from angel Raphael and it is little wrong way to zoom this is called quest of the Lonely Heart vol 1 Old San Juan and La Perla 2019. it comes with a note which reads dear Ted I love your channel and all of the info you share I've learned so much about creating scenes from watching your channel thank you for all the work you do this is my first Zine I'm a musician by trade but have been transitioning to full-time photographer and videographer I look forward to learning more Angel you guys have probably heard me say more than a few times I am a huge fan of little zines and little books I think this is something that is very overlooked by photographers in general we want to print our work big or at least we want to go with kind of conventional sizes I love when things are done with a small format and the reason that I love that and it could be Prince could be zines could be books the reason that I love that there's an intimacy to this that draws you in this is something that I know you're not going to pick up on the video necessarily because I hold everything close to the camera so you can see it but there's something that draws you into this and it works as an object and not as a digital asset necessarily that you're looking at online I think that's really cool I love the format on this one thing that is very challenging with this format actually is when you're dealing with uh landscape orientation images so in other words you're not utilizing the full page and so I think he does this really well with his layouts when you have things that work in juxtaposition to one another in terms of where they sit on the page it also works really well when Angel goes into a format where you're using multiple images on the page for instance there's a couple spreads where we have three up here's one with five and we've got a full bleed in the middle this is actually something that's not easy to do because you want your best work in here but you also want the images to make sense and have a dialogue with one another and relate to one another as you see them on the page and I think Angel has done this really well here also the subject matter of Puerto Rico in here is very interesting Kind of a Funny Story aside I actually was in Puerto Rico in February I was down there with my local camera store Fort Worth Camera they had myself and another photographer and we had gone down there to do photography workshops got all the way to Puerto Rico got through the first night and the second day found out I had coveted so I spent the next three days sitting in a hotel room and the workshop didn't happen like we wanted it to and I couldn't be around other people and so anyway so I spent a couple days in the hotel room fortunately it was a very nice hotel room with a beautiful Juliet window that opened up with a little balcony and so I was able to photograph from there and boy I shot the hell out of that hotel room but Puerto Rico is absolutely beautiful and a lot of the street scenes in here are very familiar to me so maybe I'm a little jaded with that but Angela this is a wonderful little book thank you for sending all right so next up is a series of little prints here these are actually really nice these come to us from Andy who goes by zealous ay on Instagram I will put a link to his Instagram as well as all the other photographers I'm featuring in the show description below this video make sure to check them out but Andy has a note which reads dear Ted Forbes what I have sent you is not a Zine these are what I call a prezine shots which I will be including in my scene My Scene will be titled the world is beautiful it's a mixture of photos that I took and where I have been I hope you like the prince best Andy I love the very direct title and the concept here um if I may make a few suggestions for you so first of all I've never heard of a prezine but I do like the concept so obviously you've got five images and you're putting together a direction I'm assuming in a style that you want to go in with this the next thing that I would do is I would go look up what a maquette is so a maquette essentially is a demo version of your book it's a way for you to start putting things together and you know there's a whole process to putting together a book and definitely figuring out your direction in the work and looking at this as individual prints is a big part of that but I think the next phase that you want to do is you want to build a Marquette and if you look historically what a maquette is a lot of contemporary photographers since the 1960s that put these together and essentially it's just a demo version of the book it's a way of actually flipping through the pages now if you look at like the work of Ralph Gibson or even Dave Heath or a lot of photographers who talk very openly about doing maquettes there's one way of doing it which is born in the 1960s which we used to call paste up for those of you who know your graphic design terms which is essentially just taking these photos getting a dummy made of the book and pasting them in so you can kind of see how they're going to work together but I think that you know with modern technology now today there is a different direction you can go that I don't know how many of you actually work in but I've actually done it this way if you use blurb or one of these print-on-demand Services you can actually just get a one-off made of a book and I always do a proof before I do any kind of run on anything and that's a really cool way to do a mockhead because you're going to actually see something that's very close to the final result so I wish you best of luck on your Zine Andy please send it when you get it done but build your Marquette see what you think oh so many Concepts you'd think I'd do a workshop one day stay tuned oh it's happening see folks these are all the reasons that you should be subscribed to my newsletter because you never know what I'm going to say there alright so I have a few more more zines that I want to share with you guys today there's some really good work that's come in but first

and thanks to Squarespace for sponsoring this video all right so next up is this little scene that comes to us from David Felipe this is called fzine number one the signal escabe and it comes with a note which reads dear Ted since I started following the works of your viewers on a more regular basis I wanted to throw my hat into the ring as well in the age of Instagram it feels kind of special to hold something physical in one's hand which tells a story that is no longer than just three photos that you can put in a row I made the scene with my sailing photos from last year all the texts are in German but I do feel like the images tell a story of their own thanks for inspiring me to do this regards David so my German isn't so hot so I won't try to translate any of this but this title does translate to the sailing Edition it certainly speaks obviously to that there's some really wonderful work in here David and the only thing that I would say about this is that I want to see more and I think that's a compliment because you actually start to tell a story here and I just want to see more of it I think that there's so many possibilities with sailing and this whole idea of the visuals that come with that and I think what's interesting in this little scene is you've done this in two distinct different styles and I think that this is very complicated to do actually you are doing some of it on film which is clearly shot on film because we can see the sprocket holes and we can see the type of film it was shot on then I think the others were colored digital and so there's two different languages and two different voices that are going on here and what I would do if I were you and this is just a suggestion is I would actually experiment with this a little bit further is it possible to merge these two Styles or are they just there for the sake of being there and I know plenty of people myself included who enjoy shooting in both mediums but I think there's probably a different way to do it the other thing I would do is I'm not really sure what having the edges of the film frame do for you in here I think that you're trying to obviously State and show that it's film and I'm not sure that you actually even need to do that I think that there is definitely a lift in the image and there's a different style that's being shot on obviously it's black and white but it definitely has a different appearance too so that's something that I would think about I really like the way this is presented and like I said my biggest compliment I can give you is I wouldn't want to see more of this I think it's really really cool and I think there's a lot of potential things you could explore in this style with this particular subject so awesome job all right now I'm going to try to not butcher another language this is Italian here but this is a book that comes to us from a gentleman named ed Worthington who lives in Cardiff Wales this is a book called unjiro d'Italia part Trey The Six Million Dollar p man It also says Dear Ted I've been a subscriber to your channel for years and I'm pretty sure I've sent you some of my work before at least I hope I haven't made that up I have always loved the work of Luigi Geary and every year I take a trip to Italy on my own with a bunch of film and a couple of cameras I know my images are nowhere near the standard he produced over his lifetime but his work inspires me so after every trip I create a scene of some of my favorite images this year I spent a little over two weeks visiting Turin Parma Reggio Emilia Siena Florence and bologna this is the third time I have made this kind of trip and I've enclosed a resulting Zine all right Ed nice little Zine I love your color work the color in here in particular reminds me a lot of Luigi Yuri's work it kind of stops there I mean Luigi Gary was a very conceptual photographer and I think you have a very different approach to what you're doing and I think it's an interesting balance and I kind of like that I mean it's one thing that when we love a photographer and you know it's really easy to start wanting to copy their work directly and I think that you have enough difference I love Luigi Gary's sense of color I shot all that stuff on Kodachrome and then he had a way of interpreting it in the print that had these kind of beautiful pastel colors and I'm getting that from this book definitely from the cover and then obviously your fan you have a big Luigi quote here at the end so one suggestion that I'm going to make on this and like many people who submit works and you have everything labeled below each image which I don't really have a problem with I don't think the typography is big or annoying or sloppy and it doesn't really detract from the image and that's one of the risks you do with this and I think it's successful in that I think it's fine but what I'm sensing out of this is that you have something you want to say in terms of place and I think your images are nice I think the lighting is very interesting in these and it's very even in most cases I can tell you're trying to avoid having people in these images which is interesting to me too and those things are great but what I would what I would try to do with well I'm just going to give you a challenge here so your Luigi Geary fan clearly and he had a conceptual approach to his work that was very unique and very personalized into what he did what I would do and what I would challenge you to do on this is next time you take one of your trips to Italy and you show this to try to do something with your photographs that are a little more than just a landscape image or a picture of a landmark I would try to do them in a way that you use geometry or lighting or mood or people even in the images to try to suggest more of the place that you're in I think that's just a really interesting thing because I see that that you're trying to label these and put things together but maybe there's a way of taking you know a cue from your favorite photographer to actually bring that into a more of a reality where the images sort of just speak for themselves anyway just an idea I love the work I really love the color on these and obviously a huge Luigi fan so anyway thanks for sending please remember to check everyone out in the show description below put links to everyone's work I would love to hear from you if you have any comments and until the next video I will see you guys then until then laterthis video is brought to you by Squarespace welcome back everyone it is that time once again we are going to open some mail submitted by viewers like you before we get going I want to mention something and I said this in the last video is that I feel like mail time I definitely enjoy doing it I get wonderful work submitted I love seeing your work and I love sharing that work with other people I think we all have something to

I do those once a week it comes out on Fridays you should sign up it's pretty cool I don't spam and if you don't like it you can unsubscribe so I'll drop that link below too but without further Ado let's get to some of your mail alright so first up and this is really cool this is absolutely outstanding this is a book called New York unseen this comes to us from Luke Cordis you might recognize some of the work in this book Luke has sent me a series of zines before that have kind of culminated up into this book into this I wouldn't say it's a collection it's very different from the zines even though you see some of the material in here I love the scenes that Luke sent in and this book is absolutely outstanding New York unseen is more or less Luke's Love Letter to New York City it is an outstanding book Luke is a very capable photographer he shoots in a wide range of styles there's a wide range of subject matter in here and what I love the most about this is that I don't think that I would classify New York unseen as what we would call conventional street photography per se now I've talked about street photography and videos before and this is not a knock against street

about creating scenes from watching your channel thank you for all the work you do this is my first Zine I'm a musician by trade but have been transitioning to full-time photographer and videographer I look forward to learning more Angel you guys have probably heard me say more than a few times I am a huge fan of little zines and little books I think this is something that is very overlooked by photographers in general we want to print our work big or at least we want to go with kind of conventional sizes I love when things are done with a small format and the reason that I love that and it could be Prince could be zines could be books the reason that I love that there's an intimacy to this that draws you in this is something that I know you're not going to pick up on the video necessarily because I hold everything close to the camera so you can see it but there's something that draws you into this and it works as an object and not as a digital asset necessarily that you're

make sure to check them out but Andy has a note which reads dear Ted Forbes what I have sent you is not a Zine these are what I call a prezine shots which I will be including in my scene My Scene will

just get a one-off made of a book and I always do a proof before I do any kind of run on anything and that's a really cool way to do a mockhead because you're going to actually see something that's very close to the final result so I wish you best of luck on your Zine Andy please send it when you get it done but build your Marquette see what you think oh so many Concepts you'd think I'd do a

scene that comes to us from David Felipe this is called fzine number one the signal escabe and it comes with a note which reads dear Ted since I started following the works of your viewers on a more regular basis I wanted to throw my hat into the ring as well in the age of Instagram it feels kind of special to hold something physical in one's hand which tells a story that is no longer than just three photos that you can put in a row I made the scene with my sailing photos from last year all the texts are in German but I do feel like the images tell a story of their own thanks for inspiring me to do this regards David so my German isn't so hot so I won't try to translate any of this but this title does translate to the sailing Edition it certainly speaks obviously to that there's some really wonderful work in here David and the only thing that I would say about this is that I want to see more and I think that's a compliment because you actually start to tell a story here and I just want to see more of it I think that there's so many possibilities with sailing and this whole idea of the visuals that come with that and I think what's interesting in this little scene is you've done this in two distinct different styles and I think that this is very complicated to do actually you are doing some of it on film which is clearly shot on film because we can see the sprocket holes and we can see the type of film it was shot on then I think the others were colored digital and so there's two different languages and two different voices that are going on here and what I would do if I were you and this is just a suggestion is I would actually experiment with this a little bit further is it possible to merge these two Styles or are they just there for the sake of being there and I know plenty of people myself included who enjoy shooting in both mediums but I think there's probably a different way to do it the other thing I would do is I'm not really sure what having the edges of the film frame do for you in here I think that you're trying to obviously State and show that it's film and I'm not sure that you actually even need to do that I think that there is definitely a lift in the image and there's a different style that's being shot on obviously it's black and white but it definitely has a different appearance too so that's something that I would think about I really like the way this is presented and like I said my biggest compliment I can give you is I wouldn't want to see more of this I think it's really really cool and I think there's a lot of potential things you could explore in this style with this particular subject so awesome job all right now I'm going to try to not butcher another language this is Italian here but this is a book that comes to us from a gentleman named ed Worthington who lives in Cardiff Wales this is a book called unjiro d'Italia part Trey The Six Million Dollar p man It also says Dear Ted I've been a subscriber to your channel for years and I'm pretty sure I've sent you some of my work before at least I hope I haven't made that up I have always loved the work of Luigi Geary and every year I take a trip to Italy on my own with a bunch of film and a couple of cameras I know my images are nowhere near the standard he produced over his lifetime but his work inspires me so after every trip I create a scene of some of my favorite images this year I spent a little over two weeks visiting Turin Parma Reggio Emilia Siena Florence and bologna this is the third time I have made this kind of trip and I've enclosed a resulting Zine all right Ed nice little Zine I love your color work the color in here in particular reminds me a lot of Luigi Yuri's work it kind of stops there I mean Luigi Gary was a very conceptual photographer and I think you have a very different approach to what you're doing and I think it's an interesting balance and I kind of like that I mean it's one thing that when we love a photographer and you know it's really easy to start wanting to copy their work directly and I think that you have enough difference I love Luigi Gary's sense of color I shot all that stuff on Kodachrome and then he had a way of interpreting it in the print that had these kind of beautiful pastel colors and I'm getting that from this book definitely from the cover and then obviously your fan you have a big Luigi quote here at the end so one suggestion that I'm going to make on this and like many people who submit works and you have everything labeled below each image which I don't really have a problem with I don't think the typography is big or annoying or sloppy and it doesn't really detract from the image and that's one of the risks you do with this and I think it's successful in that I think it's fine but what I'm sensing out of this is that you have something you want to say in terms of place and I think your images are nice I think the lighting is very interesting in these and it's very even in most cases I can tell you're trying to avoid having people in these images which is interesting to me too and those things are great but what I would what I would try to do with well I'm just going to give you a challenge here so your Luigi Geary fan clearly and he had a conceptual approach to his work that was very unique and very personalized into what he did what I would do and what I would challenge you to do on this is next time you take one of your trips to Italy and you show this to try to do something with your photographs that are a little more than just a landscape image or a picture of a landmark I would try to do them in a way that you use geometry or lighting or mood or people even in the images to try to suggest more of the place that you're in I think that's just a really interesting thing because I see that that you're trying to label these and put things together but maybe there's a way of taking you know a cue from your favorite photographer to actually bring that into a more of a reality where the images sort of just speak for themselves anyway just an idea I love the work I really love the color on these and obviously a huge Luigi fan so anyway thanks for sending please remember to check everyone out in the show description below put links to everyone's work I would love to hear from you if you have any comments and until the next video I will see you guys then until then later\n"
