Yesterday I went with my class to Newcastle to have a talk from Aaron Guy who told us about his project photographing people who work in a mine and the landscape/ environment they work in as well as creating a film to coincide with it. He spoke of how this developed in to another 2 projects that all interlink with each other and are a trilogy. After various people seeing his first project and liking what he was doing, which was his own thing, they commissioned him to do another two and got the money together for him to do so. During his talk he was able to show us parts of two of his videos and one which was about his latest project. After his talk we went to have a look around the library/ archive they have there which was amazing as some of the books were over a hundred years old.
