Yesterday we went to a talk at the main LIT building with the animation, photography and graphics group. There, Conor Horgan, was talking about his life and job. He told us that at the age of 16 he was a punk that ran away from home and moved to London where his love for photography began when someone sold him a camera in a Cafe which he worked in.
He had a good start with photography, even getting his images into the front pages of the newspapers. Horgan worked many years making and working on commercials but now he wants to move on from that. He has made short movies and documentaries. His work doesn't involve much dialogue as he prefers expressing things through actions rather than words.
I really loved his short movie about dancing under water which is called "Deep End Dance" The camera crew was under water most of the time when filming this. Here is a link to the video. I recommend watching it it's very interesting and unique:
