Commericial Photographer: Jim Felt talks about creativity!
A few words from Jim Felt – The guy who thought of our name!*
Solving someone insurmountable creative visual opportunity is one of my passions and one of the main reasons for starting Studio 3, Inc. My love for the Art of Commercial Photography and Technology has not only been broadened and deepened by the advent of Digital, but it allows us even more creative solutions then ever before.
In the Analog era we couldn’t capture certain visual assets purely due to costs. Digital has allowed us to travel to places without ever stepping foot at the location. For instance currently you couldn’t be at the Washington Monument, you can no longer park in front of the Alamo, and you are not granted the same access to the Portland Airport due to our 911 era of security. I am excited about our creative future and thrilled with where the digital road will lead us. I was searching online and found this list on creativity and thought our blog would be a great venue to share!
Keep creating and carry on!
