La Jetée de Chris Marker (1962) - Analyse et critique du film « C’était un drôle d’objet. Une petite boîte de métal aux coins irrégulièrement arrondis, avec une ouverture rectangulaire au milieu et en face d’elle une minuscule lentille, de la taille d’un euro. On devait glisser par le haut un morceau de film – du vrai film, avec perforations – que pressait une roulette de caoutchouc, et en tournant un bouton relié à la roulette le film se déroulait image par image. (…) Ce bidule aujourd’hui oublié s’appelait Pathéorama. (…) Après quoi, cadre par cadre, je commençai à dessiner une suite de poses de mon chat (qui d’autre ?) en insérant quelques cartons de commentaire. Alors qu’il terminait Le Joli Mai en 1962, Chris Marker réfléchissait à une histoire qu’il raconterait en photos. La Jetée est peut-être le seul film de Chris Marker où l’humour est absent. A cette époque, en France, on croit cependant encore beaucoup au progrès. C’est la bande-son qui décide de la vitesse de passage des photogrammes et fait le rythme du film.

It’s a simple idea: Find some bad art, whether original or a print, for a song at a thrift store, then modify it to make, if not “better art,” then at least something that’s more entertaining to look at.

Arago - Les souvenirs du grand-père Boltanski Christian (né en 1944) Paris, Centre Pompidou - Musée national d'art moderne - Centre de création industrielle Top 10 Pictures That Shocked The World It has often been said throughout time that a picture is worth a thousand words. Any picture may be worth a thousand words, but only a few rare photos tell more than a thousand words. They tell a powerful story, a story poignant enough to change the world and galvanize each of us. Over and over again… From the iconic images of Omayra Sanchez’s tragic death to the horrifying images of the Bhopal Gas disaster in 1984, the power of photography is still alive and invincible. Here is my top 10 list of photos that shocked the world: Warning: Be prepared for images of violence and death (in one case, the photograph of a dead child) if you scroll down. 10.

Photographers and Social Networking You’re a photographer, and you want to do it right. The big question, of course, is: What exactly does it mean to do things “right” in this digital day and age? The photography aside, there are a lot of other aspects to photography, and most of them have to do with, well, business, or at least with trying to reach other people, to entice them to look at your work. How do you do that? There’s an industry of people who specialize in telling photographers how to do that, and I have no intention of joining them. In particular, I really want to write a few words about what people call “social networking.” The ruling dogma is that photographers have to use all the tools of social networking to get somewhere. To start it off, let me be a little bit clearer about what I mean. Let me see whether I can list all the different tools at your disposal. Do you, as a photographer, have to have and use email, a website, a blog, a Facebook page, a Twitter account, and a Tumblr account? Another example.
