[00:00:00.00]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewer ] Hello, can you please 
 state your name?
[00:00:03.75]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewee ] Ethan Graves
[00:00:05.42]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewer ] alright, so first of all, 
what kind of things
[00:00:08.74]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}have you read during your life?
[00:00:10.88]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewee ] When I was younger I read 
narratives such as RedWall and the Unfortunate
[00:00:16.31]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}Unfortunate Series of events series, 
except now I read
[00:00:19.88]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}a lot of photography and art related books.
[00:00:25.36]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewer ] Why have you moved 
to more art based books?
[00:00:28.18]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewee ] Um, I don't know I found myself being disinterested in narratives and so
[00:00:32.65]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}and so now when I read books it's
 more for the information.
[00:00:36.42]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}that they have in them versus for the story
[00:00:40.06]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewer ] What have you read recently? [Interviewee] Uh, recently
[00:00:43.33]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewee ] Uh, recently, I've been
 reading Within the Frame
[00:00:46.66]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}Which is a photography book just 
 about how one photographer 
[00:00:52.41]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}handles his career and such like that so
[00:00:56.58]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}it's not, it's more documentary than narrative.
[00:00:59.85]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewer ] When you're reading what are you hoping to gain from reading?
[00:01:04.38]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewee ] Just a general understanding for whatever I expect that book to be.
[00:01:09.61]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}So for a photography book I hope to expand 
on my knowledge of photography
[00:01:14.27]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}and for any other artbook it would be that,
[00:01:17.19]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}and for a psychology book just to expand
[00:01:19.28]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}upon my knowledge of the psychology 
that it's basing it on.
[00:01:23.33]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewer ] By expanding on that knowledge how will that benefit you?
[00:01:27.14]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewee ] It'll make my, hm..., 
it will expand upon
[00:01:36.51]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}information that I know for that 
 topic and so it makes me 
[00:01:40.88]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}more knowledgeable and more useful and, so for instance, 
[00:01:44.09]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}If I'm going to do a photography 
 thing if I have a vast amount of infromation
[00:01:50.54]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}to draw upon versus a little amount 
than I'll be a better photographer
[00:01:52.40]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewer ] In what ways has these books helped you become a better photographer
[00:01:58.79]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Intervieweree ] They just teach you a new
[00:02:01.15]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}ways of looking at a space and 
 what you want to photograph or
[00:02:05.21]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}new techniques to use when photographing
[00:02:09.34]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}somebody and so it just causes you to 
 look at things differently.
[00:02:12.63]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewer ] Can you give me a specific example of how this has helped you?
[00:02:17.09]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewee ] Well one, some of the, one of the books that I read
[00:02:21.53]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}was about focusing on mundane things to make
[00:02:24.92]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}them interesting, so for instance looking at different angles of things
[00:02:28.59]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}so, for instead of you, you know a picture of a tree shooting it from the bottom
[00:02:33.74]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}if you have a way to get above it and shoot it down then you get a very 
[00:02:37.47]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}different image if you don't do what's regularly,
 or look at things differently
[00:02:43.58]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewer ] How much do you think these books have improved your photography?
[00:02:49.67]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewee ] I would say greatly 
 due to the fact that it's just
[00:02:54.03]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}due to the fact that the only two things that I can draw upon are
[00:02:58.86]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}personal experiences and then 
 from the books I can draw on
[00:03:04.71]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}other people's personal experiences so it vastly improves
[00:03:08.71]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}my photography due to the fact that it gives me a different point of view
[00:03:11.02]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewer ] Why do you think the people who write these books actually write them?
[00:03:15.53]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewee ] I would say it's 
for that exactly that reason
[00:03:19.70]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}for, to be able to share their point of view
[00:03:22.12]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}and I would say it's because 
they know that all people don't 
[00:03:25.53]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}think alike and so by sharing that point of view,
[00:03:28.27]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}it does exactly that, it helps other's see, 
and my guess would be that
[00:03:33.79]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}they read photography books when they were
[00:03:38.93]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}getting good and they realized how much 
 that helped them and they wanted to help other
[00:03:42.29]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewer ] Do you feel as you grow in your
[00:03:45.56]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}own photography you might invest in creating your own photography book?
[00:03:49.96]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ interviewee ] I would say probably not in the instructional manner because I'm not a good
[00:03:54.23]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}write but I enjoy that they have 
taken the time to write these books.
[00:03:58.45]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interviewer ] Alright thanks for sitting 
here and telling me your story
[00:04:03.28]
{font:Arial}{size:14}{Plain}{textColor:65535, 65535, 65535}[ Interveiwee ] Yep, thank you.
[00:04:06.77]
