#delvemovingimage

February 10, 2014

We are excited to being the exploration of The Moving Image + Art over the next couple of months, in anticipation of our upcoming DELVE event. (Details will be announced very soon!)

To us, the concept of the moving image in contemporary art can be both simple and complex. It can be: narrative cinema, animation, constructed from photographic stills, a record of time passing, hand-drawn, experimental, on vimeo, uploaded to youtube, projected, viewer activated, in a film festival, on film, made digitally, video art, a documentary, an instagram video, made with light, the inspiration for drawing or sculpture, part of a social construct, a short, made on super 8, a passage of time, a recording of a performance, and much more.

We want to dive in deeper than just being a passive viewer. How the moving image exists on and off a screen, within different mediums, and as a context for social interactions will be jumping off point for a fascinating conversation.

We'd love your insight. Share amazing projects with us that we can feature and talk about. Open up our worlds to what time-based projects move you by emailing us or tagging #delvemovingimage on Tumblr, Facebook, Pinterest or Twitter.

In the meantime, let's start off with a classic.

A 'solid-light' film by Anthony McCall. This film captures a recent presentation of Anthony McCall's ground-breaking 1973 work, Line Describing a Cone. Testing the boundaries between cinema and sculpture, the work takes the form of a projected white dot that slowly grows to fill the dark space with a cone of light, immersing audience members in its field, to mesmerising effect.

All of our current blog posts can be seen over at DELVE, an educational and coaching platform for artists and creatives.

We help artists & creatives tell their unique stories, beautifully brand & write about their work, get organized & reach big goals.

Email us with questions or comments! Thanks for reading.

Evening artist statement workshop coming up on April 25th! We've had many requests for an evening session, and here's your chance. ⠀ ⠀ This workshop is perfect for you if: you have trouble writing about your work or a certain project, you don’t have the time or motivation to prepare written work to apply for opportunities, or even if you love writing about your work but aren’t sure if it’s working to enlighten your audience in the right way. ⠀ ⠀ We will be writing during the workshop, and worksheets will be provided. Feel free to bring your current/past artist statement, but it is not necessary. You will also want to have access to images of your work (can be digital, on your website, etc.) You are welcome to bring a laptop, if you prefer to write that way.

Have you ever felt tongue-tied when asked to introduce yourself and describe your work? Or maybe you ramble on in a way that doesn’t accurately describe what you do?⠀ ⠀ As a creative who does so many amazing things, it might be incredibly difficult to put your work into words in order to give your audience that “aha” moment and make them want to learn more.⠀ ⠀ There are many occasions where you’ll be asked to describe your work—or answer that dreaded question: what do you do? These include interviews, parties, networking get-togethers, conferences, or even meeting a friend of a friend for the first time.⠀ ⠀ The goal? You want the right people to remember you.⠀ ⠀ There are ways to practice talking about your services and talents that will open doors and engage the people you are talking with in an exciting way.⠀ ⠀ First, you need to remember: You are the only person in the world who does exactly what you do in your unique way. We want to help you make sure you tell the right story when people ask, in a clear, succinct, and compelling way. For more info and tips, read the post.

Many artists aren't outgoing. Heck, many artists are introverted. We know that we are supposed to make our work and get it out into the world, but this task can be stressful. On top of this, our work is sometimes personal, and it's hard to share it in a way that feels genuine. ⠀ Luckily, you don’t have to be the life of the party to succeed at marketing, you just have to be clear and confident in your story. Marketing for artists is a necessity to get the opportunities you want. They won’t be achieved in a vacuum. We've shared some ways for shy and introverted artists to feel more comfortable sharing their work.

You are the only ______ (fill in the blank: freelancer, artist, designer, singer...) in the world who does exactly what you do in your unique way.⠀ ⠀ So how do you let your potential audience or clients know who you are and what you do in a way that feels powerful and genuine? How do you recount your professional history, products and services in a compelling way when your work isn’t there to visually speak for you? We've written a post with five tips on how to tell your story and share your work effectively.
