SPEAKERS

MIMMO COZZOLINO The scanner as a camera

Before he got a digital SLR camera Mimmo Cozzolino scanned small objects directly on an A4 scanner, obtaining files of between 250 & 750 MB. He found a scanners light beautifully alluring. Mimmo will show and talk about images he has created this way.

SAMANTHA EVERTON Digital photo montages

It is easy to lose sight of the image in pursuit of technology. Samantha Everton shoots with film and digitally montages separate elements into one image which seems completely real so that the viewer is intrigued by the subject, not thinking about how it was achieved.

LLOYD GODMAN[NZ] Locating the gap [between traditional & digital photography]

With the extensive proliferation of digital photography as a means of creating images and the associated manipulation of images through software like Photoshop, the term post photographic era has emerged which leaves doubt as to the veracity of all photographic media. Many photographers are left pondering the chasm between the two areas. What is the common ground where bridges remain and bind the two? What inseparable differences divide them? Lloyd Godman identifies some key aspects in this debate, and presents critical ways of differentiating between the two.

KIM PERCY The art of manipulation

Beyond the photograph, far into the world of digital, lies a creative space that offers more than is often utilised. Coming from a fine art background, Kim Percy has been fascinated in manipulating her images using computer aided drawing tools and pushing the boundaries between what is digital art, photography and painting. During this discussion she will explore how a program like Photoshop can produce artwork that is unique and how it has influenced her creative process.

GREG TINKLER photography gone digital

It is no longer enough just to take a photograph. In the digital world you now need to fix it, clean it up, manipulate it.
The challenge is also in the use of the photo. Is it just for print? TV (SD or HD)? Web? Or part of something else? The list is endless.
Can you protect your images while making them visible to any potential client? Convergence in the digital world blurs the traditionally separation between disciplines, where instant images taken from a mobile phone can be sent anywhere in the world in seconds.
Its a big challenge and a great opportunity.
