JLS 231 Feature Story

 

Twelve passengers with cameras blazing, fly down the Colorado River in a 16’ party boat. Although this has the appearance of just another spring break style trip it is anything but. The Tourists are not just capturing blurry snap shots of the fast moving water; but HD video of it, sharp still images and live blogging about the whole thing via 3G Internet service. This eclectic group of photographers, videographers, models, musicians and other creative types is a part of something bigger; they are, according to the mission statement on their website, collaboratively driving the cutting-edge of new media convergence. Pushing themselves and the artistic community to greater creative heights, while improving and sustaining their craft. This is The Visual Collective, a creative consortium, and they are constantly producing lots of great multimedia content for an eager Internet audience. Hit the link to read more… Continue reading

daily affirmations from tvC v2.0

For those of you out there who have followed this blog or my photography with some regularity will know that I am a member of thevisualCollective. Our group travels to various locations and produces a bunch of great content. Everyone from photographers and videographers to models, musicians and anyone with the desire for a creative adventure is welcome. We just wrapped our Zion National Park trip, which was amazing and there will be a ton of great stuff to come soon from myself and the other 12 travelers. For me one of my favorite things to do on these trips is to take daily portraits of everyone at camp in the evening. you can see the ones from Death Valley National Park here… Beyond being fun, I hope to document our locations, change in looks i.e. getting dirtier, and just show the group out in the world. They are shot quickly and no one does any real prep for the shoots.

This time around we had a lot more people and a few more days/locations. I will dedicate the rest of this post to photos with a little description. Click the link to see more and be entertained…tvC members feel free to download and use these photos on your facebook, if you have any questions/concerns text me…
