Alexx Henry speaks about Living Art and the Future of Motion in Photography
Posted on 22. Nov, 2010 by planetMitch in Video
We met Alexx Henry last year at the Collision Conference and we were fascinated by his talk about “Living Art” – and now, we’ve found a video of a talk that Alexx just gave about Living Art which you should be interested in. Alexx and Andrew Gant have started a site livingartmedia.com to follow this art form. And, in case you want to see Alexx’s an excellent recent example of “Living Art”, have a read of our coverage of his “Amazing new iPad digital moving magazine shot on the Red“.
Alexx has been leading the discussion about moving from stills to motion for quite a while (hence livingartmedia.com), and it is exciting to listen to him talk and to show some incredible examples of what will become ‘normal’ in the future – stuff that seems pretty unusual and unique right now. Please watch this talk to see some of Alexx’s work. Much of what Alexx is doing is on the Red, but as he mentions in the lecture, the Canon HDSLRs (especially the Canon EOS 5D Mark II (reviews) that ignited the revolution) are enabling this new medium.

Living Art and the Future of Photography in Motion
Presented by Alexx HenryDate: 10/05/10
Location: Columbia College
Chicago, ILPhoto professionals are already under pressure to offer motion to clients, but in the rush to provide motion, little is discussed about the type of content that will both serve the needs of the clients, and work with the strengths of the photographer.
Alexx discusses a new medium called “Living Art” which draws upon the strengths and disciplines of traditional print while exploring what motion has to offer.
This seminar will give you the tools to understand this new paradigm and how to apply your strengths as a photo professional.
Sponsored By: Workbook and APA
Special Thanks to Columbia College for hosting and filming.
