Alan Schaller: Streets in Mind - SmugMug Films
Vložit
- čas přidán 11. 07. 2024
- From the shadows of a cityscape, street photographer Alan Schaller composes narratives out of the chaos around him. Limiting the noise of his surroundings, he imagines the stories that spaces want to tell. Searching for contrast-a striking person passing in a crowd or a flock of birds suddenly taking flight-Alan captures the harmony of life’s unpredictability by simply observing.
Directed, Filmed, and Edited by: Anton Lorimer.

ok but why is this video cinematography so good?
Incredible images-both Schaller's still photos and the moving images. Probably the best looking movie about street photography I've ever seen. Beautiful.
Erik Tjernlund thanks Erik!
Wow thank you for the compliment Erik! Anton is amazing.
Yeah that was a great video Allen, great images I'm just getting into the black and white. But you City people have all this opportunity I'm in western Oklahoma small town America. I'll keep watching your videos very interesting and informative.
What?! Really surprised he is just 4 years into the game. I’ve been following his IG for almost 3 years now, and his work always felt ripe unforced right from the start.
Just another reason to keep on following Alan.
@Enrique Not at all. He's great. Absolutely great.
@Enrique your life is overrated
Yes! Thank you I love his work.
I have been following Alan Schaller on IG for quite sometime. What a brilliant photographer he is. Always coming up with the most wonderful shots.
I'm so in love with Alan's work.... plus the Aton's eye behind the lens shooting this... masterful
This video will make me now look at busy city areas with a different perspective. The low and high angles with the focusing in on one minor detail in a very busy environment is a very inspiring, thank you smug mug for the new view !
This videographer actually has potential become a great street photographer
He is incredibly talented, with an amazing eye, we agree ;)
The magic of the unknown, beautiful work. Thank you
This is the best video about photography I've ever seen! It shows the essence of street photography so clearly and precisely!
Thank you for this amazing piece!
Well Said!!!
I did some street photography while I was in China and I have to say that it was very liberating. The idea that you can create art from just walking or driving down the streets is amazing. Some of my favorite shots have come from this attempt at street photography. Great film, well produced. Congratulations!
wow
this episode is magic .!! the combo of film and the photos are super incredible
Beautiful video. Thanks to all who were involved in making it.
Thanks for sharing! Loved the music and the photos. Both dear to my heart. I feel you when you said we miss a lot of shots. Right place and time but just missed the shot. Many a times, I thought to myself, that would have been a great shot. Then moved on. Hope to see more!
I come back to this video anytime I feel the need of inspiration to get better, the cinematography is not only sublime but expresses the art of Mr. Shaller in a perfect and balanced way. Thank you for this.
Happy to hear that! Thank you.
Bravo Anton Lorimer for a beautiful short film that manages not only to reflect but to amplify the style and substance of the photographer.
Thank you! Really appreciate it :)
not gonna lie, already see this video more than 20 times, simply inspiring, simply amazing
Loved this short film. Alan's street photography is amazing and the video editing is stupendous!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent photos....this guy is the real deal. Perfect examples of capturing light.
Fantastic video. Just stumbled upon this video. You sir have sumed up Street Photography in a nut shell. Glad I have come across your work.
Wow! 4 years. You are crushing it Alan.
We couldn't believe it either! He is so talented.
Mesmerized.. so beautiful. I had to watch it twice. First enjoying the beautiful cinematic video and the jaw dropping street photo, and second, actually hearing what the master said in the video. just wow.. truly inspiring
What an outstanding compliment, Fahmi, thank you for watching!
Thanks @Alan sir
Watch Again & Again every time when i watched looks beyond the Word
Thank you for made the video, I just started on it as a hobby but I discovered how wonderful it is, still getting problems to capture what sometimes my eyes sees, frustration and happiness seems to come holding hands. But somehow it is a relief listen a professional talking about sometimes not getting the shot they want, thank you again for share so your experiences and information.
El trabajo de Alan Schaller es una gran inspiración para continuar amando las fotos a blanco y negro.
Fantastic film.
Is so amazing he is a real master with a great equipment.
Alan, you are such a great photographer! Thank you for sharing this.
Wonderful video and photos. Congratulations Alan Schaller!
Thank you Maria!
Dear Allan,
I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your exceptional work. I am constantly inspired by your creations, and every time I have the privilege of witnessing your work, I gain valuable knowledge and insights.
Thank you for sharing your expertise and passion with the world.
Yours truly,
pierangelo
This is fantastic piece of art. Both video and photos.
Love Allans bag...a great video...need to come to Toronto (T.O.)
'Cities are ..a conveyor belt of interesting subject matter' Spot on ! Enjoyed the video. Thank you !
beautifully captured and told!
I'm blown away anyone would thumbs down this video. Alan Schaller is one of the best street photographers to date. He inspires the hell outta me.
Beautiful doc. Alan is one of the greats.
I just came across Alans work on Flickr, and am stunned by it. His photos are about the only ones I've seen on there that are really genuinely visually interesting. They are sensational, his ability to sense space, condense a composition, evoke drama, include powerful graphic elements, while making it look effortless and spontaneous. They capture your attention! Even though they are digital, they have that deep contrasty old school feel like Capa's, Kertesz'sor even weegee's pictures. I VERY rarely dish out compliments willy nilly, but Alan is a truly gifted artist
What a great video. And I can relate so much with Alan. I am a professional musician that needed an escape from music, so I bought a camera and started taking pictures 2 years ago. I never knew that there was a genre of photography called street photography! And I start to walk the streets and observing everything and taking pictures. I loved so much that I am now studying photography in college! What a change photography bring to my life and music. And your video is an inspiration. I will just shut up and watch it again 😊
Even on my 4th NYC photograhy trip: completely overwhelmed. Thank you for your suggestions!
One of the best video on CZcams
I can each this video over and over and I love it
Excellent Video Editing I must say!!........my passion for this has been RE-kindled!
AWESOME!!
Lovely film thank you Alan I was completely immersed in your world
Alan, I found this deeply inspiring. I shoot "street-style" as a utility photographer - i.e., shooting whatever is needed for my yoga sangha and community. I was a staff photographer 1972-74 at Runner's World and still (rarely) do sports. Point being, your approach is mine whether for sports, in K-8 classrooms, scheduled shoots or day-long events: it's always about finding ways to prepare the whole "chain" of photographic tools including heart and mind, by releasing the ego's desires and being as completely in the moment as possible. Like you I find it a wonderfully expansive, quietly moving experience. To recap, this film was a sweet, wonderful discovery. Thank you!
We can't tell you how happy it makes us that we've inspired you. That is always the goal. We hope we can continue to!
Hhh
Beautiful video, very well composed and touching from the beginning to the end. Love it!
Thank you Michael!

Amazing film! Thank you 🙇♂️
So happy you enjoyed it!
Bravo !
"A conveyor belt for photographing" -- brilliant observation Alan.
Sometimes overwhelming. Other times frustrating.
Yes, music and photography have much in common -- If there are no harmonics then even the most beautiful scene will be flat and atmosphere-less.
I agree with your approach- as you put it "space" // as I put it "location location" are essential to a well created street photo.
Cheers from Chicago ----
Superb photographer and excellent filmmaking. Well done!
Superb Video - great shots. An inspiration
Wonderful! Keep on!
Short straight to the point.. Hehehe nicely done thx
