URL: http://www.laurencebourdais.com About: Hello, My name is Laurence. I just finish my studies in graphic and art direction in Paris at ESAG Penninghen in june 2011. After my graduation I work for Pin Up studio in Paris as a studio assistant. I was lucky because it was just after the fashion week. I saw a part of Demarchelier and Peter Lindbergh’s shoots. Since that experience I work in freelance and I work with some still life photographers or Elene Usdin (I like her atmosphere…). For my graduation I worked on the superstitions in the world. I created a magazine call 12bis for not to say 13 (it’s like that unlucky black cat). This magazine is divided into two big parts. One with collages (superstitions known with my photography’s), one with testimonies (photography of mine). I’m found of collages like Roman Cieslewicz who was a master in that technique, he is my idol. You can take a look on my website to discover my universe : www.laurencebourdais.com or cargocollective.com/laurencebourdais_photobook Thanks. Get inspired by: I find my inspiration in many style of photographers. I like the singularity of Oleg Dou, I like the atmosphere and the story of Tim Walker, Anne-Charlotte Moulard (Young french photographer), Elene Usdin, the impact of Solve Sundsbo and Paco Peregrin, the scene of Erwin Olaf. I find also my imagination in the book, the fairy tale. Tools/Techniques: I use a Canon 450D, Photoshop for alternation and lightroom for contrast.

Name: Laurent Lemoigne / Donanubis Country: Switzerland Job: Artistic Director / Graphic & Web Designer Url: http://www.donanubis.com
About: I get into my job in 2002 after two years studying graphic design and multimedia part-time, and practising my skills in the same period. Then I started working for two years in a digital press agency, working also as freelance. In 2004, I started my agency daedalus sarl with a partner and some other freelance workers. We work mainly on Graphic Design and Internet Websites, but also in Motion Graphics, Video and Audio Production. Music is an important part of my life, alternative culture and electronic music dived me since I’m teenager…. At this time, I was mostly involved into party organising and dj’ing. After a years off travelling in Asia, I started producing images and really got into my artwork …of course inspired with all the underground & electronic culture. I spent a lot of time during this past years to develop my skills and push my boundaries… working on different personal projects, to get more experiences over the softwares I use, and of course getting always more inspirations from the world around me. I work a lot next to my job to develop my skills, learn new things and produce noncommercial visuals for posters or flyers, watherver…Creation is an important part of my life at this time, and I really enjoy starting a visual from nothing, just with a few ideas or resources as nice stockpictures and let’s the composition going on… All that I know at this step is the feeling that I want to transcribe and the global atmosphere that I want. Get Inspired by: I’m inspired by everything around me, mostly music, movies, books, street… I love travelling and be inspired by others cultures, see what’s happen in others countries… And of course all the art community over the web, as DeviantArt, where I like to spend time and look for new inspirations sources.
