A short Spiros talk about shooting bands…
A month ago I did a 10min talk about working with bands, record labels and magazines, as part of the D&AD Sharp’ner “Picture A Sound”. Showed a few images too…well around 150…and said “uhm” a lot….The good people at D&AD filmed the talk for posterity and you can watch it here, where you can also see the other 4 speakers on the night talking about projects dealing with bands, musicians and record labels.Once again a big thank you to design group Form who curated the evening.
D&AD Sharp’ner: “Picture A Sound”
Last night, as part of design group Form’s 21st anniversary I spoke about working as a photographer with record labels and magazines.It was a great night with 4 other speakers who all in their own way have been involved with the record/music industry.Anthony Burrill kicked off the night with a briliant story about how he got to design his favourite band’s, Kraftwerk’s, website.That was followed by my talk and extensive slide show; then Paul West from Form took us through his excellent journey followed by journalist Peter Robinson, who runs Popjustice, with a tour de force of tales from the pop world.Finally sound designers Adelphoi showed us impressive examples of their work.Brilliant evening and a very special thank you to Paula and Paul of Form.The talk was filmed and will be up on the D&AD website in a few weeks time when I’ll put up a link for all of you who couldn’t make it.In the meantime enjoy the weblinks…and the funny shot of us all below…
