]]> http://www.sarahwalkerphotos.com/film/feed/ 0 http://www.sarahwalkerphotos.com/about/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=about http://www.sarahwalkerphotos.com/about/#comments Wed, 06 Apr 2011 09:33:04 +0000 admin http://www.sarahwalkerphotos.com/?p=17 I am a photographer based in Melbourne, Australia, specialising in theatre and rehearsal photography, performance documentation and creation of promotional material.

Since 2009 I have been shooting for some of Melbourne’s most exciting independent theatre companies and venues and am currently the photographer-in-residence for several companies, including MKA, Polyglot, Red Stitch, AtticErratic, Pop-Up Playground, Barking Spider Visual Theatre and Quiet Little Fox.

While constantly shooting, I have also worked as an actor, lighting designer, set designer and tech across a variety of theatres and companies, which means that I have an excellent understanding of the process of theatremaking, from concept to the stage. I bring a cinematic eye to production photos, with a strong focus on conveying the emotional and visceral impact of performance. My documentary work is never detached – I have a knack for feeling the aesthetic of a piece, the dynamics of character relationships and the elements of stagecraft, and communicating them succinctly in image form. As a promotional photographer, I work closely with the director and key creatives on a project to extract evocative PR material that grabs the attention of the viewer.

I have also created trailers for a variety of productions and curated seasons. As theatre promotion becomes increasingly web-based, a short trailer can often express the tone of a piece and capture audience attention far more effectively than any blurb or image. A solid trailer can pique audience interest in a lasting way, which translates directly to ticket sales.

Theatre may be inherently temporal, but images last. I capture every production with passion, professionalism and a fierce commitment to quality.
