stages of a photograph

Posted on Posted in filmTagged

the stages a photograph exists can set expectation.
the expectation is you are on the same “page,” and that you are not referring to any other page.
when in the studio, talk studio
when in the gallery, talk gallery

if you are in school, you must talk school, which means talk in a way the teacher expects. what is that grammar at an art school; one which proclaims itself as being a place of advanced aesthetic capacity.
The short answer, talk like they talk — do their pictures. They don’t expect you to think, why should you expect them to?
