    I love the interview, Ralph Gibson is one of my favorite photographers and he delivers his experience in a very comfortable, matter-of-fact style, but that sideways blurry transitions seemed unnecessarily self-conscious and optically rather stressful. It does Mr. Gibson's message a disservice. One "Like" for Mr. Gibson, but not for the video I'm afraid.

    well, we thought the rolling effect was fitting Mr Gibson´s flow nicely! He has such a presence that listening to him can produce that kind of effect. @steven we do get the point about "unnecessarily self-conscious" though. We do try to make the video piece interesting and try to underline the photographers´purpose rather than blurr it.^JJ

    Ralph Gibson is a brilliant photographer, I really like his pictures. The side swipe transitation confusing the message in the video.

    Great interview... maybe if the editor could render this again and substitute a 6 frame dissolve for all transitions. it is possible to replace a video with a new version. ;-)

    An absolute inspiration! I had the pleasure and honor to spend some time chatting with him and shooting a lecture he had in Dallas, and he is not just an absolute gentleman, but also a master, legendary photographer.
    Listening to his ideas and advice was absolutely priceless. Thank you Leica for this amazing tool you have given many greats.
