Timeless Documentary Photography / Simon Norfolk / vlog 116

Dear viewers,
this is my newest photobook reaction, AFGHANISTAN: CHRONOTOPIA – Simon Norfolk. It’s another classic photobook that inspired me hugely. I hope you will enjoy the vlog, although you could sense I was tired.

I have an assistant now and I need to reorganise my workday. I will open a new channel for photobook reviews and keep this channel focused on my art and the darkroom witchcraft. I am taking this job as a vlogger more and more seriously, since from the beginning of the pandemic I am making about 90% of income from my art and youtube vlogs are my main way of marketing.

Anyway, I have already record a new vlog with my art. It’s from a project Feels Like Home. By the end of the week I’ll publish it.
May the topshit be with you,
Borut

My Youtube channel got hacked!!! / Vlog #95

Catastrophe, my youtube channel got hacked. Hackers left some clues behind and if you recognise somebody in this surveillance footage, let me know!

Lost in the forest. At night… Vlog #94

Youtube channel Topshit Photography

This vlog is kind of “talking head” format, which I hate, so I’ve used all my video making skills to make it bearable. On the end I’m sharing a failed vlog. I wanted to sleep on the top of the mountain, but I got lost and had to come back at night. Morning was a pure treasure though. I hope you will enjoy it.
Thank you for your attention, may the Topshit be with you!

Wet Plate Collodion project, A New Earth, Vlog #89

.
In this vlog I’m sharing with you the process of creation of the fourth plate in my project A New Earth. The project is a post-apocalyptic New Deal with mother nature. The project A New Earth is inspired with the work of Ana Mendieta, Eckhart Tolle and of course Alan Watts. The next vlog will be about the making of albumen and carbon prints from these negatives.
This vlog is supported by 132 patreons and I could not be able to do this without their support. In each vlog, I draw one lucky patreon and send him or her additional gift. This time is Katie Brittie from Dallas, Texas, USA.

Carbon Print from a Film Negative / vlog #81

In the vlog #81 I’ve learned that I can’t push expired film to the density I would want to see. From the fresh film I’ve easily got a good negative and from that negative I’ve made a great carbon print. Now I’ll make a carbon kits and send them to my greatest supporters from Patreon.com, so they can make a carbon print for themselves. Soon it’ll be available for the public.

Please leave a comment if this is something you would be interested in and leave a suggestion.

Publishing a Photo-Book!

.
Ladies and gentleman,
I’ve pulled the leaver, thrown the dice, pushed the button, crashed the piggy bank, all that before I’ll kick the bucket. The printing process of my new book has started to roll and it’ll be working on it every day until it’s finished, presumably by the end of November 2019.

This is my first vlog in the series about the making of the book Light Mood. In this vlog I’m announcing the project and describing my concept and the basic thought processes how the photos were made and how I’m planning to approach the making of the book.

The pre-order of the book is available on my site:
