FormSpring, Web Online Form Submissions, (Ask-Me-Anything, Tell-Me-Anything)
I thought i would try out this social experiment seeming as everybody is asking and telling anything to people here on flickr. I think i am actually quite good at offering advice and solving problems for people on the Internet and in real life. Obviously this form which can be found on FormSpring is completely anonymous. It is basically just a web online form where i get random submissions off strangers and it is also a great way to collect data/information.
*Update - The link has now gone, so i have now closed the FormSpring web online form and thank you all for the submissions in which i answered them all. Please read right at the end of the long comment where i have written a short paragraph explaining what i have learnt from this social experiment.
I am now going to be taking out a bit of time for myself and stop uploading for a while. I have loads of updating to do on my whole photostream so i am going to try to focus on that. I also think that the fact my creative concepts/ideas have just gone has not helped. So i am now taking the time to be a better contact/friend and hope to gain inspiration from all you lot on flickr. I recently also came across the amazing work of Simon Pais Thomas whose fashion photography work is just incredible. It looks like i will have to do one of those contact/friend showcase things very soon again but i don't want my photostream being full of them. Looking at the work of Simon Pais Thomas has made me realise that it's about treating self portraits like a journal really. I want to find the time to be more expressive within myself and find other ways to communicate to the audience about the way i am really feeling inside me. There are many more photographers who inspire me on flickr, some know who they are and the list contains too many to mention.
So i will be back in time with hopefully some very new fresh concepts/ideas which are exciting, original, and perceptive. Hopefully even extending my skills to build up a beauty portfolio which is totally new to me. Also having the time to make my fashion work even stronger in time as well as working on all other areas of moving image and photography. I need to stop making comparisons to the work of others and just focus on my own art/moving image/photography. I was given this sound advice by buttonheart (Chloe) and she is totally right. Also another thing i have learnt about myself is that i need to plan more in advance when i get a concept/idea as i always seem to get excited and rush everything. I need to realise that i can't expect things to fall into place for me straight away and i really need to stop being so negative about my photographs. I need more confidence and self belief so that is my main reason for needing time to myself. Lastly i will stay in touch with only my flickr contacts/friends photographs and i hope you all enjoy the rest of the holiday summer season.
