The Adventure of Photography: 150 Years of the Photographic Image
Conceived as an introspective journey that takes you from the first daguerreotypes to war photojournalism, from fashion spreads to the greatest contemporary artists, The Adventure of Photography: 150 Years of the Photographic Image includes 1700 pictures and 300 artists, and will appeal to all photographers--amateur and professional alike. This is not only the history of an amazing art form, it is also the adventure of one century and half during which photography has captured the image of the collective conscience. This trip is as dazzling as it is moving, where one crosses paths with such celebrated photographers as Ansel Adams, Brassai, Lewis Carroll, Robert Doisneau, George Eastman-Kodak, Max Ernst, Roger Fenton, Eadweard Muybridge, Helmut Newton, Nicephore Niepce, Man Ray, Edward J. Steichen, Alfred Stieglitz, Andy Warhol and many more. War Photographer In this engrossing, Academy Award-nominated documentary, director Christian Frei follows photojournalist James Nachtwey into the world's combat zones as he fights to capture the struggles of those who face harrowing violence in places such as Kosovo, Indonesia and the West Bank. Nachtwey skirts through murky politics to tell the stories of the suffering in hopes that he can bring attention to their plight, one picture at a time. At Close Range A fascinating profile of internationally acclaimed National Geographic magazine photographer Joel Sartore, this PBS documentary provides a behind-the-scenes look at the adventure and dangers of his job, along with the conflicts that arise for him as a husband and father often away from his family.

Henri Cartier-Bresson: The Impassioned Eye Exploring the life and work of influential French photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson, this captivating documentary tells the story of a camera-shy photographer whose vision quietly shaped the emerging field of photojournalism. Focusing primarily on the artist's career from the 1940s to the '60s, the film features memorable images of Marilyn Monroe, Henri Matisse, the liberation of Paris and the death of Gandhi. Picture Me Go behind the scenes and experience both the glamour and the darker side of the high fashion industry as filmmaker Ole Schell documents girlfriend Sara Ziff's rise to international model status in this revealing film. Taking place over several years, the documentary features interviews with numerous models in the industry and includes appearances by designers Karl Lagerfeld and Nicole Miller, photographer Gilles Bensimon and others. National Geographic: Through the Lens National Geographic holds court in the pantheon of magazine journalism for many reasons, the biggest of which is its breathtaking photography. But what makes a picture perfect? What goes into its creation? By taking ten stills and examining the work that goes on behind the lens, this documentary lets you into the world of professional photography and shows you the glamour, grit and guts that go into capturing some of history's best moments. The President's Photographer Morgan Freeman narrates this fascinating National Geographic documentary about the photographers who have commemorated the everyday events and momentous occasions experienced by American presidents during a 50-year span. The program provides special access to the daily routine of Pete Souza, photographer to President Barak Obama, detailing how he and past White House snappers have provided a visual history of the most powerful officials in the world.
