Street Photography: Documenting the Human Condition - Part Three of Three
2 years ago
Back in 2006 I wrote a .pdf about purism and street photography and posted it on deviantart.com. I featured not only my own work but many of my street-shooting friends from all over the world.
Having wrote that it was always in the back of my mind that I wanted to update it. Yes, I could have written something yet I really wanted to do it with video. Until the Canon EOS 5D Mark 2 came about -- and with the most recent firmware update -- i couldn't have achieved "the look" i wanted.
Over the course of two months this summer I enlisted the help of some friends to shoot ... I dunno ... the next volume or whatever this is.
In this video you'll see my work and that of photographers Severin Koller, Frank Jackson and Mario Anzuoni, all with different perspectives for shooting street photography.
There are too many people to thank; please read the credits at the end of part three.
I hope you enjoy it. I know that I had an amazing time shooting and editing it.

Prev week
there was a lot of truth in what was conveyed.
If you happened to publish a book documenting this 'human condition' I'd definitely give it a read
Awesome vid,keep going!
Thanks!
I did think it funny how the videographer seemed to be trying to get "streetesque" shots and framing every once in a while throughout the videos.
I really enjoy street photography and I love to see how do you do your shots. Here in Portugal if I make shot's like you do and some one see me take a picture they make a lot of questions! It is just insane!!
About the rangefinder cameras, I never use one before but I am really curious to get one and just try to use it. I love to have one Leica like some of you, but is expensive for me right now. I will try something cheaper and then I will try see the difference for a SLR.
Once again congratulations for the videos.
Best regards,
António Chagas.
PS - I am sorry for my bad English! :P
How can I publish this videos on my blog at antchagas.com ???
I try but then VIMEO Player said I need to have authorization from you. Can I post them there?
Thanks.
happy you enjoyed it, mate.
Thanks. :)
What I ask myself do you develop on your own when shooting on film? I am really curious about this.
i have a question for you. do you shoot raw or jpeg? at 7.32 i the 3rd movie i saw that preview on the camera was b&w but the picture shown later was color. so i guess you shoot in raw or...?
Regards, David
however i hated the tilt /shift focus .. found it inappropriate to the film
was pointless to use it ... maybe stick to photography lol !
But for a non-pro-filmmaker it was pretty nice.
I'd like to think that ranger finder photography is for me, therefore I found myself ordering a " Minolta Hi Matic 7s II ".
A long story short, " Documenting the Human Condition " influenced my life, so thank you for making this Chris.
Only remark: camera operating is too distracting (easy up on focus pulling, shifting, jerking,...). Sometimes, overdoing it- hurts...
P.S.
I love my M9, even more than my M8....
beautifull photos as always!
Thx for this
