MODERN ARTIST
A few months ago , to my indescribable rapture , I noted horror photos 360 from Adam Martin Evings on Facebook . Need I say that from all daily updates in my feed with the same type of posts like « what country are you a fan of horror from », « what is your favorite movie », « end the phrase », etc ., 360 photos look new , interesting , they interact with the audience . There is a wow-effect .
After a while , I was already looking forward to new works from Adam . Today there is an opportunity to interview him .

HELLO . HOW ARE YOU ? I am not bad , thank you .
TELL ME ABOUT YOURSELF . WHEN WERE YOU FASCINATED BY PHOTOGRAPHY ? WHAT PROMPTED YOU TO THIS ?
I was interested in photography in my late teens . But started really getting into it in my mid 20 ’ s .
WHO SAW YOUR FIRST HORROR PHOTOS ? CAN YOU JUDGE THE NATURE AND PERSONALITY OF THE PHOTOGRAPHER BY THE PICTURES ?
First ones to see them were the people out with me posing the shots . No , you can never judge a book by its cover or a photographer by his pictures .
WHAT CAMERA DO YOU USE ?
I use a Nikon D5000 . And Samsung Gear 360 . And now purchased the Ricoh Theta V
HOW DID THE IDEA OF 360 COME ABOUT ? I CAN ONLY ASSUME THAT THIS WAS MOTIVATED BY A DESIRE TO STRENGTHEN THE EMOTIONALITY OF PHOTOGRAPHY AND TO INVOLVE AUDIENCE INTO THE ACTION .
Yes I am a person that likes to look for new ways for people to interact with my content . A simple photo is straight on . And there is nothing wrong with that hence I still take them but I wanted to create an atmosphere where they have to look around .
WERE THERE ANY CASES WHEN PEOPLE EXPERIENCED PHOBIAS AND DARED TO LOOK THEIR FEARS IN THE EYES DURING A PHOTO SESSION ? WHERE DO YOU FIND YOUR MODELS ? CAN YOU TELL THE STORY OF CREATING ONE OF THE PICTURES ?
Not really everyone that has come out on a shoot has always enjoyed it . Couple of the girls didn ’ t like being out in the dark . But then again . You do sleep with your eyes closed lol
All my models are close friends .
