Professional Imagemakers
I hope
you will forgive a little navel gazing. The progress and evolution of
Imagemaker
is described later but a couple of stand-out statistics to
get you started: The archived files for the magazine since inception
have passed the 2TB mark and total a mind-blowing 218,900 files, the
majority of which are images. An estimate of the number of words
places it around the one million mark which represents an awful lot of
Biro ink – for one of the stable features of the workflow is that I have
not succumbed to composing on the keyboard, still preferring pen
and paper. Despite this the keyboard used to type up the rough drafts
has remained the same one, proudly bearing its WordPerfect shortcut
badge of 1988 and a Lotus 123 sticker of the same vintage. Many of you,
the readers, have contributed over the years and your efforts are duly
acknowledged – we could not have got by without you. It is gratifying
to see how rapidly and consistently the quality of the images improved,
especially over the early years as we all got to grips with digital (that
thing that was never going to replace film!).
As journalists and content creators our world has never been under such
sustained attack. The web and mobile devices are stealing market share
from all paper-based output, fake news is polluting our landscape, ‘real’
journalists (ie the ones who go into dangerous places and situations)
are in more peril than they have ever seen – many are being murdered,
seemingly with impunity, for telling the truth or exposing injustice.
Crooked governments and politicians are robbing their people before
their eyes, poisoning, butchering, imprisoning and torturing anybody
who exposes their crimes.
I was struck by the coincidence of seeing an army photographer working
between the lines of guardsmen at The Cenotaph on 11 November, the
centenary of the ending of World War I; for it was followed, that same
evening, by a screening of Peter Jackson’s
They Shall Not grow Old.
This
new film is a 4-year compilation of archive footage from 1914–1918 that
has been restored, harmonised for framing rate and then painstakingly
coloured using reference garments from the Imperial War Museum’s
archives. What would the camera operators from the trenches,
struggling to maintain even, hand-cranked filming, have made of the
technology being brought to bear on their 100-year-old offerings. In the
companion program, Jackson is shown at work in his studio discussing
colour details of uniforms and equipment. In this he makes the
interesting aside that today’s propping departments would be striving
to dress all the actors in identical uniforms whereas the real soldiers in
the trenches were wearing whatever they could get their hands on, and
this included German over-coats. WWI was the first conflict from which
moving footage could be made, and shown to the public, not that it had
much effect, the world was at it again within 21 years.
Finally, this is the pre-Convention issue. If you have not finalised
your plans, please do so without delay and the team look forward to
seeing you all in the hope that you have enjoyed a happy and relaxing
Christmas break.
