The Art of Photography: A Behind-the-Scenes Look at Creating a Special Video
As I sat down to talk with Gear about her photo gear, I couldn't help but think that this conversation would have been very different if Ruth had been present. Ruth was instrumental in helping to facilitate some of the interviews and events we discussed, and her presence made all the difference. We spoke about the sequence of events in a cemetery where a family is burying their child, and the interview with the deceased man who was found with them. Ruth didn't want to discuss that particular topic, but for him, she said "but for him" and that allowed us to move on.
I also had the chance to talk to Manuel Bravo about his work with Huian, and he lit up at the mention of his name. There were certain subjects that really got his passion going, and we spent a lot of time discussing those topics. This was one of the first times I'd interviewed Manuel, and it was clear that he's passionate about what he does.
I want to take a moment to thank the people who helped make this video possible. One person in particular deserves special thanks: Doug Hall. Not only did he help facilitate my trip to Mexico City, but he also served as an excellent host and guide throughout the city. He made sure I saw all the cool museums and exhibits that I wouldn't have otherwise had time for, and his friend Ruth Allegria was instrumental in helping me get set up with my equipment.
Another person who deserves thanks is Oswaldo Ruy, a photographer who helped us capture some amazing images during our time in Mexico City. And of course, I must thank Graciela, who agreed to be interviewed on camera despite not speaking English fluently. To make the interview work, she provided me with a transcription of her words in Spanish, which I then translated and subtitled myself. This was no easy task, but it was worth it in the end.
Finally, I want to thank my friend Patricia Cone, who lives in Mexico City and owns a gallery there. She took the time to proofread the final video and make sure all of the subtitles were accurate, which was a huge help given that I don't speak Spanish fluently. I couldn't have done this without her expertise.
This video would not have been possible without the help of these individuals, and for that, I'm truly grateful.
I also made some changes in my process for this video compared to previous ones. One thing I decided not to do was use music composed by myself, which is something I've done in the past. Instead, I opted to use music from a company called Epidemic Sound. I'd been using their service for a couple of months at that point, and they were recommended to me by a friend.
Epidemic Sound offers a huge library of music that's available for use in videos, and it's a monthly subscription-based model. This made it easy for me to find the right types of music for each scene in my video without having to search through hundreds of options. The quality of their music is top-notch, and I was impressed by how seamlessly they integrated into my footage.
Overall, using Epidemic Sound was a game-changer for this video, and I'm so glad that I decided to try them out.
I want to make sure that everyone knows about Epidemic Sound, especially if you're planning on creating videos in the future. They offer an incredible range of music options, and their team is always available to help with any questions or concerns. If you're interested in learning more, be sure to check out their website and give them a try.
Finally, I want to remind everyone that our next video will be dropping soon, featuring an interview with David Brooks. I'll be doing a little preview of his work before we roll the camera, so stay tuned for that. As always, please remember to like, share, and subscribe to The Art of Photography for more videos, and I'll see you guys in the next one!
"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwhat is up everybody it is Friday and this week I released the first video in artist series season 2 which was a video on graci IID that I am very proud of the way that came out and had a wonderful reception from you guys so I'm really glad that people were happy with that that was a very different video for me to Do Not only was she a very different type of artist for me to interview uh but it was in a different language it was way outside my comfort zone and I'm really proud of the way it came out I'm glad you guys were excited a few people asked if I was going to do a behind the scenes on that and you this whole operation is just kind of me and so when I'm in the interview I'm don't I mean I can't handle shooting behind the scenes as well but I have some footage that I can share with you and I want to talk you through that a little bit because there are some interesting stories that I can relay um on this so this interview came to be um a year and a half ago when um I had finished the crowdfunding project for artist series um and I guess about a day later I get this email out of the blue from this gentleman he says hi my name is Doug Hall and I wanted to reach out because I am an expat I am from Georgia but I live in Mexico City now and he said I'm very involved in the photography community and I have a connection if you're interested in interviewing Pedro Meer Pedro Meer is a legend and I'm like okay you've got my attention um so we started talking about Pedro was open to the idea and I said well look here's the deal I said if I'm going to come down to Mexico I wonder if it's possible especially Mexico City if I could contact a few other artists and I can try to do more than one interview while I'm down there that would that way we could kind of maximize he said well who do you want to get I'm in the back back of my mind graciella graciella ubid has been a hero of mine for years and years and she was number one on that list and uh there were a couple others and I did get two more interviews and fortunately graciella accepted that anyway Doug says well I can ask around and see if I can get a contact for you about a day later I get another email from Doug and I'm like dude you're killing me you're setting this all up this is amazing and so he said well I'm I uh he connected me with graci's assistant who is a gentleman by the name of Oswaldo Ruiz Oswaldo is an amazing photographer himself but he is GRA assistant and I started talking back and forth with him we got the whole thing set up he said one stipulation he said graciella is not comfortable doing the interview in English so it will need to be in Spanish and I said you got it no problem so I told Doug and I said I'm going to look around for a translator we'll figure that out and Doug says whoa whoa no I got you covered just come down here and be ready and I'm like okay and he said my friend Ruth who I'll come back to in a minute she will do the translation I said that's great so I packed my bags we're off to Mexico and I had confirmation from Pedro um grael and then another artist Lord sco who will be coming up in the series also so I'm really excited I'm nervous I'm terrified I grew up in the Dallas Fort Worth area in Texas it is about a 10-hour drive or so to the Border believe it or not I have never been to Mexico until last year this was the first time so I was pretty excited about that I didn't really know what to expect I thought I knew what to expect but I wasn't sure um and to be able to go down and interview heavy weights like who I had lined up and so I was pretty nervous so I'm on the plane and I'm I got books out and I'm researching and I'm making notes and I'm trying to come up with questions that I could ask and how do I want to kind of steer this and and um it's only about a 2 and a half hour flight so the stus comes on she says okay we're going to prepare for our descent into Mexico City so you need to put your stuff away so put everything away and I open up the window shade I look out and it's it's this amazing storm is blowing in over Mexico City and these just beautiful clouds and we're starting to descend into and I'm like where I mean it's like when I was a kid watching like The Empire Strikes Back when they're going into the city of the clouds it was it was just this magical experience and I have video footage of this and I'm sure it doesn't do justice to the feeling that I had going in but you come in and Mexico City is huge it is just vast it's like Los Angeles or something it's very spread out a little bit smoggy but we come in land at the airport and I'm kind of getting nervous and excited all at the same time and I get off the airplane I go through customs go through the other side and here's Doug he's there to meet me and uh so I'm like hey what's up and he's like Bonito and and so we jump in in Uber and we go speeding through you they all drive like maniacs down there so this Uber is just speeding along the highway and going through these streets of Mexico to get me over to the Airbnb so I can check in we get over there and the Airbnb actually everything's all located in this old neighborhood called Coan which back in the day used to be where people would have a country home back in the 1930s well Mexico City's like gone Way Beyond it now so it's still really in the city but we get there and right across the street from this little apartment that I've that I've leased is um the blue house the the the place where Freda callow grew up check it out that's Freda callow's house the blue one pretty cool and it's a museum now uh she lived there it was she and Diego's country home and I believe she died in that home too um so just to be down there and be in the middle of all this culture that I'd only ever read about or seen stuff on television or or movies and and it was just like mind-blowing so check into the Airbnb one of the nicest places I've ever stayed in uh and didn't cost very much and that guy was nice the host was great everybody's so friendly and so Doug says I want to come on down I want to show you some stuff and then we'll go to dinner later and I said okay great and so he takes me down to this little square that's in kaken it's my man Doug Hall who invited me down to Mexico to we're going to be doing a lot of filming over the next what 3 or 4 days here 3 or 4 days B Bonito fasten your seat belt and there's this wonderful Fountain and and there's an organ grinder sitting there I've never seen that before and in the on the edge of the square is this old church and it's this old European design from like the 1500s or something and so go in there it's absolutely gorgeous we come out and I mentioned the clouds and one thing I didn't know about Mexico City is it's at a really high altitude it's more like Denver and every afternoon in the summer these storm systems blow through and you can expect it this wonderful summer rain between 4:00 and 6:00 in the afternoon so we come out of this church and it's starting to rain Doug says come over here let's let's let's get a mcow and I'm like what's a mcow I mean I'm like the ultimate Gringo at this point so we go in there and we're having a mcow and um this wonderful rain is coming down and this woman comes in stands up in we're in this covered outdoor area stands in front of everybody and starts singing opera it's just insanely beautiful and so the rain had let up Doug says it's time to uh we're going to meet Ruth for dinner you get to meet your translator and I said okay great so we go pick up Ruth and we go to this restaurant well Ruth Allegria is a culinary consultant and she is kind of a big shot apparently down in Mexico when Martha Stewart and people like that come through town to do television work they call Ruth as the consultant to set everything up and so Ruth has picked out this restaurant which is I believe it was a wakan restaurant but they had a guest chef and a yukatan menu and the most amazing food and so we sit down and we start talking and Ruth tells me that she's a little bit nervous about the interview because she's not photographer and she's wondering you know what if terms come up how do you want to handle that and I said well look I'm not going to ask her about f stops and jutter speeds and lenses and I'm going to ask her about her story so I wouldn't worry about it too much it was funny because when we actually did the interview the only word that tripped her up with self-portrait which I thought was pretty cool so she Ruth did incredibly well uh anyway she was awesome and so meet her and the next morning we get up and it's time to go to grail's place and at this point I'm nervous because this is somebody that I she's just a hero of mine and and I never thought I'd be able to meet her and and much less go do this interview and so it's for me it's kind of like climbing a Tibetan Mountain to go meet the wise Elder who's going to give you the meaning of life and that's what grael is like to me so anyway so we get in this car and we're speeding through the streets of Mexico City again and all the little houses in kakan down there actually really throughout Mexico are painted these bright colors and it's really cool and so we're we're getting closer and grael lives in this older part of kakan and and the streets you get down there and it's it's barely an alley it's like maybe a small car one can fit down and constantly somebody's coming the other way and you got to back out and do this dance and anyway so we finally arrive and go in and it's Waldo and um graci there to to greet us and I'm going in the door and she has the door open and she has this print right as you walk in and it's a Joseph kudelka print apparently she's friends with kudela kudelka this is amazing and she goes oh yeah he's a friend of mine she said he came and stayed here with me one night and she showed me in her house she said I put him in the guest room up stairs but he wouldn't sleep in a bed he had to sleep on the floor and if you know about Joseph kudela he's a bit of a nomad and so it was it was kind of a cute story so anyway so we we go in and Doug and I start to set up cameras and I'm getting the audio ready and and we're kind of doing that and uh Ruth sits down and she and grael they're chatting them they're like best friends over there never met each other and I'm like what on Earth are they talking about this is awesome so we get everything set up we get everything checked lights good um graciela's house uh this's another thing about Mexico the light down there is different than it is here and it's harder to explain but she has this you know I don't travel with lights on these which sometimes is a problem if it gets dark but but she has a North window and a South window and it was all natural light in that whole interview so we sit down and Ruth starts telling me she says well um I was telling her what I did so we started talking about food and gracela has just finished compiling a book of her grandmother's recipes and so those two like connected on something that wasn't photography and this is what was so awesome about Ruth is that by the time we sit down to do the interview it's like everybody's friends at this point um and that it would have been a very different interview had that been a stranger or had that been somebody who sat there and talked photo Gear with her while I was setting out it just would have been very different and I think that Ruth was very instrumental in some of the places that interview went um the if you've seen the video the the sequence that she does um with the cemetery with the family who's burying the the the child and the dead guy who they fine um she didn't want to talk about that and she said but for him I will and so it was very nice and so that I credit that to Ruth um she was the one who put everybody at ease into that and anyway it was a great interview and and you can tell there's certain subjects that uh you know we were talking about that and then I said well let's change the topic a little bit and let's talk about manueles Bravo oh she just lit up and the whole thing with huian she was there were certain things that I think really got a passion out of her to want to talk about and so anyway it was a great interview was brains no Brains Brains brain um if you guys haven't seen it yet I will link it up another thing that is I want to say about this is that I know that you know these are pretty much a oneman show I do the filming the editing the research the interview all that stuff but the reality is is that these would not be possible if I didn't have help from people so Doug Hall extra special thanks to um not only did he make it possible for me to go down there but he was an excellent host made sure I went to all the cool museums and saw all the awesome stuff and Doug was great um and he hooked me up with his friend Ruth Allegria who was I I just said I couldn't have done it without her I mean she was instrumental in it and then also Oswaldo ruy who is uh I mentioned he's a photographer also he is graciela's assistant graciel I obviously couldn't done it without and then one other person um when I got back uh I don't speak Spanish and but in order to do the edit I needed to know exactly what she was saying and this was really timeconsuming and so what I did is I ordered a transcription which came back in Spanish of what gracial said for the entire hour and a half or whatever it was and then I went through I mean this took hours line by line translated had to figure that out and put my sub subtitles in so that way I would know where to cut well there's a lot of room for disaster there so I called my friend Patricia cone who lives in Mexico City also she owns a gallery down there she has been in my videos a couple times she's a really good friend and she knows gracella and I said would you proof this whole thing for me and so she spent a bunch of time going through the final video and proofing all of the subtitles and so I could not have done this without those four or five people and so I just wanted to make sure that I give a public thanks U the other thing I did very differently on this video this time around is epidemic sound um I have a background in music composition that's what I did in college and I have in the past um done my own music for the videos and this time around I decided not to and I've been using epidemic for a couple months now off a recommendation they're amazing and especially a video like this that needed to be something very different musically than what I'd done in other videos and it covered a wide range of topics epidemic are pretty awesome I'll put a link in the description if you do videos at all they're a huge help they've actually got an incredible music library and it's a monthly subscription and as long as you're subscribed you can put that stuff in your YouTube videos and they work with smaller composers uh and musicians and the quality is topnotch um they really are amazing and they were a godsend on this whole thing so go check out epidemic sound especially a video like this that had so much going on and it required several different types of styles and music and so anyway so I just wanted to give a shout out there to them as well um anyway so if you guys haven't seen grail's video for some reason please go check it out I will link it up at the end of this video I've got the next AR a series coming up this coming Wednesday it's going to be David Brook over and I'll do a little preview showing you his work before we roll that also so these will come out every Wednesday and uh we are into it now so um it's pretty exciting if you enjoyed this video please remember to like it share it subscribe to the Art of Photography for more videos

around I decided not to and I've been using epidemic for a couple months now off a recommendation they're amazing and especially a video like this that needed to be something very different musically than what I'd done in other videos and it covered a wide range of topics epidemic are pretty awesome I'll put a link in the description if you do videos at all they're a huge help they've actually got an incredible music library and it's a monthly subscription and as long as you're subscribed you can put that stuff in your YouTube videos and they work with smaller composers uh and musicians and the quality is topnotch um they really are amazing and they were a godsend on this whole thing so go check out epidemic sound especially a video like this that had so much going on and it required several different types of styles and music and so anyway so I just wanted to give a shout out there to them as well um anyway so if you guys haven't seen grail's video for some reason please go check it out I will link it up at the end of this video I've got the next AR a series coming up this coming Wednesday it's going to be David Brook over and I'll do a little preview showing you his work before we roll that also so these will come out every Wednesday and uh we are into it now so um it's pretty exciting if you enjoyed this video please remember to like it share it subscribe to the Art of
