Black & White
As I consider this new Instagram and aesthetic I consider color and black and white. All of the photographs I’ve posted so far have been in black and white, and I’m thinking I might keep it that way. It’s compelling, mysterious and classic and kind of specific. I dig it.
It’s easy when I’m making pictures with my camera, but this new project is going to require videos too, and black and white video is something unto itself. Well, video is something unto itself, something I know next to nothing about. But I’m determined for this time around to not care.
I’ve got a collaborator, that internet friend, and as we’ve been bouncing ideas back and forth it’s clear that there is endless opportunity to delay and put off and find excuses. Nothing will ever be perfect, it’s better to just pull the trigger and learn from mistakes. There’ll be mistakes anyways, obviously, so let’s make them big and fast.
