In case you missed the last chasejarvisLIVE, we posted the above video excerpt of my interview segment with art director/creative mojo/REI brand manager Jason Sutherland. In this video interview, Jason shares wicked insight on how photographers get selected for jobs, where he and his art director/creative director peers look for new talent, how he judges your work, why, and a whole lot more.
The above vid is only a portion of the full broadcast. Here’s a reminder on how this smorgasbord of chasejarvisLIVE content is shared so that you can get it how you want it going forward…
1. To get the full broadcast, and to be able to ask your questions via chat and twitter, you need to watch them LIVE on the day that they occur, or enjoy the rewatch posted exactly 12 hours later for those on the other side of the planet. For schedule and notice about when/where these are, follow the blog, twitter, Facebook.
2. Just 24 hours after the live broadcast we will post a full audio-only podcast version, downloadable here via free subscription in iTunes (or here via rss feed). I’ve heard from lots of you that… …having this recording in their possession so they can listen anytime they want is useful. As such, we’ll continue to post these.
3. Approx one week after the LIVE show, you can get a video excerpt–not the full show, but a segment chopped outta the show to share some of the content–via my Youtube channel (subscribe here). This saves us on edit/upload effort and hopefully encourages you to tune in live and participate in the worldwide conversation that happens on that day.
Lastly, what is NOT a part of the above replay from chasejarvisLIVE but IS AVAILABLE via a video podcast exclusive, is my 15 minute interview with the wildly inspirational explorer Mike Horn. ||UPDATE: That video is also available at the bottom of this post!|| Mike is hands down one of the most motivating and personally inspirational people I’ve ever met. The VIDEO podcast exclusive is available by subscribing here in iTunes for free [or for the non-iTunes folks via RSS here].
Get some.











I like the fact that creatives/buyers are looking for whatever it is they deem “authentic.” For most, it probably indicates a desire for something with more depth rather than just a workable set of images/video. Does it translate? Sometimes. But even more important is that the more people make it known they are looking for something real, the more photographers are going to focus on what they know and how THEY see, rather than just trying to replicate a look they think they can market with more success. Whether the buyer’s search for authenticity is sincere or not, it might encourage the photographer’s search for something more — to reach a little deeper.
Chase, love this interview, and all that you do for our “community”. I’ve been shooting ads / commercial work in NYC for about 15 yrs.
Three years ago decided to spend most of my free time in Mississippi shooting the last wave of older delta blues musicians, an era about over. No assistants, producers etc. Old school. Got a book published, out this month which was nice, but the way that project spiked the creative juices in was deadly man. It’s all about following the passion & let nothing get your way, and if does, plow through. Thanks.
