I started my day with the ever to so talented and dedicated, Rafael Goldchain, at Sheridan College. Rafael is a professor in the Photography department and also an advocate and innovator for Research & Development in the area of rendering 3D artifacts. Rafael, myself and a few employed students and faculty spent several hours discussing the advancement of this project and they showed me their successes thus far. It’s an impressive project for sure.

We also toured the program area and discussed the several updates that Sheridan has done within the program since becoming a degree program. Also impressive and inspiring.

Algonquin College currently has a bridging program with Sheridan that allows our grads to continue their studies with Sheridan and achieve a degree in Photography - for those of you wondering…

Next visit was with Alumna, Jodi Pudge, at her 15 Adrian Avenue, Toronto studio. Jodi is a food photographer and her clients include Loblaws, LCBO, Neal Brothers, and. many more - check her out at www.jodipudge.com.

Jodi and Angus Fergusson, check him out at - www.angusfergusson.com, cinematographers, several assistants, art directors, food stylists, propping stylists, etc., were all working on a motion job when I arrived - can’t say much about the actually client or job due to an NDA - but I can say that the momentum of the team was incredible to watch and honestly, a bit overwhelming to take it all in. Everyone was working in sync with each other and, what appeared to me to be an effortless professionalism and focus on the task at hand. Bravo to all that make our food look so delicious!
