    Fantastic video, I'm so glad you covered Herzog, I think he has been vastly undervalued for his contribution to color street photography. I shot a lot of Kodachrome back in the day plus I inherited trays of it from my father and I have to say the colors are just lush. A photographer who shot a lot of Kodachrome for its equally wonderful color was Marie Cosindas (though not a street photographer). A story that went around (which may well be apocryphal) back in the late 60s when I started out that National Geographic issued Kodachrome and all the photographers underexposed it by a stop primarily to get more saturated color.

    • @TatianaHopper
      @TatianaHopper  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey there thank you for watching! I had no idea about Marie Cosindas but I should search her as well, I think Kodachrome is definitely another level and would love to see Kodak come out with a very close alternative. I didn’t know about that story but it sure is cool and impressive :) all the best ✨

    • @kronkite1530
      @kronkite1530 ปีที่แล้ว

      Another trick many of us did to add contrast and saturation if needed was the duplicate the slides. Manipulating light and exposure, even using coloured filters could be a game changer. See Pete Turner for instance…

    • @aes53

      @@kronkite1530 didn't recall the slide duplication technique but it certainly makes sense (I use to duplicate slides a fair bit and recall the contrast but I don't think I ever tried to use it). I should add Pete Turner is a hero of mine, he influenced me enormouselty back in the early 70s; a lot of my slide copying was an attempt (with emphasis on attempt) to emulate him.

    Fred Herzog was a true 'Street Photography Pioneer' in every regard. He has provided a photographic record of the growth of Vancouver as it took its place amongst the great North American cities. Herzog often shot ASA (think ISO) 10 film! That's extremely fine grain film that hasn't been available for a very long time now. I bumped into him twice but other than looking/nodding at him I didn't want to bother him as he was busy taking photos. He had a major gallery show going back around 10-12 years ago that was spectacular. It featured very large prints of his works that were selling on average for around $4000 CAD. I went back to view it a number of times. He embodied a grace and quiet dignity despite the fact that on particular subjects he had very concrete opinions. After living in Vancouver for 33 years I haven't heard of a 'bad Herzog encounter' to date.
    Fifteen years ago when I was doing street photography in downtown Vancouver it was rare to bump into other street photographers. Now I see them every single time I go shooting! That's great because it means that many creatives are walking/looking/listening/shooting the myriad streets scenes that Vancouver embodies as a city.
    **On a personal note: I attempted to coordinate a video interview with Herzog over eighteen months but his failing health just didn't facilitate this actually happening. **

    As someone who's been taking "artistic" photographs (mostly urban & street) since around 2009 but having paid ZERO attention to *_actual_* street photographers... your videos are so immensely helpful at showing me what I've been missing out on for so long. I've never heard of Fred Herzog (which is a shame) but now I'm going to dive into his photos including purchasing his book on eBay. Thank you for introducing people like me - someone who loves to express himself with photos but never sought out the work of "real" photographers - to incredible artists like Fred Herzog.

    I shot 1000s of frames on Kodachrome. Both 25 asa and 64 asa. In the right conditions the colour was sublime.
    Printing was mainly via Cibachrome but there were few (now about two!) people who could do it well. I had two beautifully subtle ones done but others could look blocky, lacking shadow detail etc.
    Dye sublimation was far more reliable but so expensive!

      Makes total sense thank you for making those nomes, really appreciate it, I know for instance that Eggleston’s work was dye print which definitely makes it more vibrant and lasting (so I read) but I would definitely say all that quality isn’t cheap like you pointed out!

    Hello, thank you for this latest video, interesting as always. You are right in saying that slides were hard to print in the 70s. In fact the outcome would be too contrasty. Therefore, a Swiss Company "Alpa Co." invented a device to photograph slides on film to then printing it "normally". This device consisted in a body+bellow+lens held vertically above a light box hiding a flash below the translucent glass on wich the slide would lay to be photographed. A bit as an enlarger, except that the box+flash would replace the board. The difference was that a fiber optic cable would pick up some of the flash light and reinject it in the bellow, therefore softening contrast. The quantity of light being reinjected would be adjustable to fit different slides exposure. Later on Alpa Co. went bankrupt as they did not adapt to the new tendences and technology. A few years ago, people fron Zurich bought what was left and gave a second life to the Apla cameras, but changing from 24x36 to medium format with precious wood handles, etc. You can see these products on www.alpa.swiss/. Best to you.

    Loved the overview of why Kodachrome was not easy to develop & print and how that can be attributed to why Herzog's work was not well known (accessible/distributable) until the 70s and then how you tied Herzog's continued photography journey is a perfect example of an unwavering commitment o photography. The whole commitment topic is timely for me bc I am dedicating more time to photography and promoting my work while at the same time getting more committed to my job, which I enjoy immensely. I am in a restructuring/rethinking of who I am and what I want and what I am committing to and why. Why am I wanting to commit to photography and why am I doing it?

    Thanks for this video, Fred Herzog is a very interesting photographer. Although some of his photos are exceptional, I don't see him as a genius of color photography like Saul Leiter or Harry Gruyaert, as he seems to me stylistically less consistent.
    Insisting on the role of Kodachrome is very relevant. Young photographers, at least those who know little about the history of photography, can't imagine that this film was much more than a film and a very particular technology. It was artistically, culturally, a new vision of color photography.
    When I was a young photographer, in the late 70s and early 80s, there were those who used Kodachrome and those who didn't, and opinions for and against were quite strong, as they can be about an artistic movement.
    The technical, cultural and artistic importance of this film would deserve an entire video.

      Thank you so much for your comment I actually wrote this to someone else but will write it here as well I do believe as a younger photographer who has not dealt with Kodachrome that it’s like I skipped several classes in a photography degree or like only tried black and white or only tried a 35mm camera, I definitely feel like Kodachrome is another medium almost like you wrote and from its process to the experience of shooting etc it’s so different that we all could learn so much as photographers by shooting a couple of rolls. And yes I agree with you to me he is not on the same “wave” as Leiter or Haas were but still an excellent photographer :)

    Great video, Tatiana! "Modern Color" is going on my wishlist of photography books. And that's a great insight about committing to one's photography. It's an underrated aspect of photography that if you want to get good at it, you just have to keep taking your camera with you when you go places. Even a phone camera can work in a pinch. But it's the only way to sharpen one's eyes to what kinds of photographs you want to make.

    These are special because there aren't another million pictures of those exact same spots at that exact point in time. Nothing you shoot in a city will ever hold a candle to these photographers of the past. You need to go somewhere remote and go to the remote part of that same area to get something as unique as possible.

    Another wonderful video, thanks Tatiana.. your analysis is really interesting without getting too high brow for us mere mortals ❤. Herzog's work is brilliant, especially given the slowness and inflexibility of Kodachrome. I don't think I had come across his work much so thanks for that too.

    • @TatianaHopper
      @TatianaHopper  ปีที่แล้ว

      That’s right, I mean I never dealt with Kodachrome, but even when I talked about the idea of an image being an organised chaos and mentioned the work of Martine Frank I took a minute or realise that he was doing all this work with a really difficult film stock, goes to show his qualities has a photographer, thank you so much Alan! 🤝🏻

  • @zoomzoom530
    @zoomzoom530 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks for another wonderful offering! Back in the 70-80' Kodachrome was the obvious way to work for both prof and laypeople to get the (almost vulgar, yet haunting) chromatic depth and richness we couldn't get from other films (easy to fade Agfa, very blue Ektachorome etc.) but there was another, rather trivial, matter for very young people like me... it was the cheapest way to get high quality results! Even today, after >40 years I can screen these slides and they mostly look great, on any wall size... :>)
    but one (phil) comment - as a group/community..., we don't "need street photography" or any other type of (real) art - it comes from various (a very long and inexhaustible list of) personal/internal/intimate needs and urges. Whoever is telling you anything else is either lying or not a real artist (and I am not talking about prof. griding for various commercial/industrial/sci purposes...). All the best!

    As someone that's old enough to have used Kodachrome for years (since the 1970's) from Pro work to Holiday shots, it was not a hard film to shoot with but limited as in 35mm form it had only 25-64-200 iso speeds and all had an pre-paid envolope for sending the film back to Kodak to processing, which was paid for in the price of the film. As far as i'm know only in the U.S was the film available without processing.
