From Chinatown to Coney Island, Josh Ethan Johnson documents NYC's endangered neighbourhoods. See more photos here:
I'm from the Midwest. I grew up in Illinois, then I went to high school in Milwaukee, and art school in Minneapolis. I've always been drawing and painting, so I started doing photo classes there and really got the photo bug. I was always drawing people's faces, and I think photography was just an obvious progression to help capture and document the things that I saw.
I watched a few of the video portraits on your website. I'm obsessed with the slow-mo Bill Cunningham one. That one was shot a couple of years ago. I got this camera that does really good slow-mo and really good photo at the same time, and it's small and inconspicuous. So for the first time ever I've been able to switch back and forth between these two mediums and really document someone in an interesting way.I would just shoot slow-motion on the street then bring my friends over to my house and play this zombie music that they make while watching these 10-minute single clips in slow-motion.
That was the first one I did. I've been working in video editing and there are a lot of rules and corporate bullshit you have to jump around. But when I filmed that one I didn't actually get an audio recording of the guy talking, because I didn't have the right equipment at the time. I just said,"Fuck it, I'm just going to make this almost like a moving photograph." It didn't have any music, it just had seagull sounds and waves.
