Website Creation Process.

Website Creation Process. Link: https://www.tylerfowlerphotography.co.uk/ As part of my professional development blog, I was required to create my own photography-based website to showcase my work that I created both in the past and more recently, linking back to the research I did previously based on the websites of other professional photographers and what I think makes them effective. I started work on my website originally in February using the website called Cargo to help me make the beginnings of my website. However, I found this website maker incredibly difficult and complex to use and after some research into other places I could make a website I finally settled on using Square Space. I already knew from choosing my photographs for my Instagram account and my portfolio that I wanted my website showcase both new and old work, enabling me to focus on the areas of photography that I feel I have the most strength in – music, cosplay and editorial. From my previous research of o

Instagram Creation Process.

Instagram Creation Process. Link: https://www.instagram.com/tyjos_camera As part of my professional development blog, I was required to create my own photography-based Instagram account to showcase my work within a series of posts, linking back to the research I did previously based on other professional photography accounts and what I think makes them effective. I started work on my Instagram account in February creating the account under the name @tyler_and_camera, my first posts being a series of three images that I titled ‘Red’. From my previous research of other photography Instagram accounts, I knew that I wanted to use hashtags within my uploads to further reach an audience who may view my work via this social media platform. I also knew that I wanted to have the locations and sitters tagged within the uploads too (where applicable) to help me further my reach and my online presence. For the information within my bio, I kept it very simple, sticking to only the basics such as

Social Media - Instagram Research.

  Social Media - Instagram Research. Peter Neill (@shootthesound) Link: https://www.instagram.com/shootthesound Clear and concise layout within the bio for information Included information about clients he works with Link to website not included. Matching layout for his posts – they all link through the same theme (music) and each row of three is the same musician/band – there’s no random posting interrupting the flow of his posts which makes his account seem much more cohesive. Uses highlights to promote his posts. Occasionally posts multiple images in one post which creates a sense of interaction for his audience – they actually have to swipe through to see all the images. Uses hashtags occasionally but not very often. Interacts with his following via comments – likes comments, sometimes replies but not often. Has a button to be able to contact him outside of Instagram – links to his work email, possibly for clients/other photographers to be able to contact him in a way that won’t g

Creative CV.

What is a Creative CV and how is it different to a regular CV? A creative CV is often designed to showcase your specific skills within the creative industries. Allowing you the opportunity to demonstrate skills for a job role which requires elements of art, design, animation, VX/FX, production, or technology. A creative CV differs from a normal/regular CV as it allows the person to input their own creativity and artistic style into their CV, this is usually through the use of graphs, charts, bold colour schemes, or other design elements that might be used as an attempt to catch the attention of the reader of your CV. However, other forms of creative CVs – depending on the type of job you are applying for – may be presented ad an online presentation or a video format.  My CV: Tyler Joshua Fowler  tylerjoshuafowler@gmail.com  tel. 07973511144  https://www.instagram.com/tyjos_camera/  https://www.instagram.com/tyjo_draws  https://www.tylerfowlerphotography.co.uk/ Personal Profile A third

Artist Talks - Dave Heath

Image
Dave Heath Talk – The Photographers’ Gallery As a part of my professional development planning blog, I was required to attend multiple talks in regard to my studies, at galleries, in order to gain further insight into the photography industry and what it’s like to be working within it. I decided to attend a talk at The Photographers’ Gallery in London, online, discussing and showcasing the work of Dave Heath, which also tied in with the workshop they were having at the gallery called ‘The Intimate Gaze: capturing emotion and gesture in portraits’ run by Alejandra Carles-Tolra. Dave Heath was a documentary and street photographer from America, who is most known for his project called ’A Dialogue with Solitude’ which was shown and discussed in the talk put on by The Photographers’ Gallery. Dave Heath’s work focuses on the creation of narrative through street, portraiture, and documentary photography. By focusing on these themes, his work links to the theme of narrative as he used the
