What they say about duckrabbit:
'One of the hazards of publishing a well-known photojournalism blog - getting multimedia like yours, where the photos are both powerful and moving, and I end up in tears at my desk.'
Alan Taylor, Boston Big Picture)
'David White's multimedia work with duckrabbit is very exciting.'
Kate Edwards (Guardian Magazine Picture Editor)
'I am a fan of duckrabbit. I am not a fan because I agree with everything Ben has to say, but because he says it without frills and then will spend the time necessary to engage the consequent discussions. Such commitment is a priceless commodity.'
Prison Photography
'I met one of them at an academic conference in the summer. He was the sanest person there, but sure enough by damn gadnabbit ruffled more than a few fluffed up peacock feathers.'
The Photography Pages
'If you haven't seen the duckrabbit blog on multimedia you should.'
Stephen Alvarez
'duckrabbit has done another jaw-dropping job with Condition Critical, a highly commendable and important project for Medecins Sans Frontiers.'
The Travel Photographer
totally agree. there’s a real narrative arc to this and the pace is quite gentle, despite the serious subject matter.
some really strong pictures in there – but used in service to the story (rather than being more about the photographer saying ‘i was there’)
but seriously. who gives a toss what camera/lens it was shot with
Thanks for giving Bruno’s piece another forum.
In my opinion, this set of images, combined with the simple soundtrack, is about the most
compelling I have seen come out of Haiti.
What made the piece stronger was the fact that Bruno did not rely on the easy, in-your-face,gratuitous body pictures to
present his take on the events.
A lot of ‘quiet’ moments that tell a greater piece of the story,IMHO
Mark you are so right … I don’t think the horror shots give you any space to think and isn’t that what really strong photography does? Create a space in which to reflect?
Thanks again for your comment …
WOW! It certainly won’t get any “better” than this as far as narrative, visuals and taste (as in for all concerned).
You wanna workshop? Have every aspiring pj watch this, and then go off where there’s no other camera in sight.
