About this episode
There are many parallels between the photographic journey and psychology. In college, one of my favorite books was " Man's Search for Meaning ," by Viktor Frankl. In this book, Frankl outlines the horrors of living in a Nazi concentration camp, but most notably he showcases how he was able to find meaning even through that existence. Today's guest on the F-Stop Collaborate and Listen Podcast, Sean Tucker , is well-known for his thought-provoking YouTube videos that take on a more philosophical approach with the goal of helping creatives find meaning through their work. Sean blends his passion for the creative arts and photography with psychological research and philosophy to help provide viewers with fantastic insight into the creative journey, ultimately leading to a better experience behind the lens. On this week's episode, we discuss: How Sean got started making his inspirational videos. Sean's video, The Two Halves of the Creative Journey . Sean's video, Creating Space for New Ideas . Sean's book The Meaning in the Making . Tips for sustaining our thirst for photography across the lifespan. The importance of patience as creatives. How and why to focus on "what we want to say." How to be creative during ruts. Authenticity in creative work. Gear's role in our photography journey. And a lot more!
