Paul Chaplo





"Rather than being commercial assignments, these images are my personal work. Interestingly enough, some commercial clients enjoy these images to see my style, composition skills and creativity or 'vision,' as they call it.

My passion is fine art landscape photography
I am currently photographing Big Bend from the air. Here are a few sample images. I call this series "A Vision from Above" and the photographs been selected for two major gallery showings in Texas during the past 12 months."


I cannot find an interview for this corporate photographer as his work is primarily commercial.

Manipulation




"The media is manipulated in all manners, for example through professional public relations (PR), and covert and overt government propaganda which disseminates propaganda as news. What are often deemed as credible news sources can often knowingly or unknowingly be pushing political agendas and propaganda."

Media Manipulation, Anup Shah, April, 2006

How forces affect media and corporate broadcasts and how the media manipulates itself to push one agenda over another is paramount to my work. My goals in the series are to illustrate the way data can be paired with images and distorted to change the appearance of that data as a whole. I believe the world would be a different place, with a more informed public, if unbiased news of the facts were presented vs the material distributed today.
Adding up the posts, it looks like I am missing 1 Thursday and 1 Sunday post. I will create 2 more posts.
