Click Click Bang Bang - A Photography Podcast
Click Click Bang Bang - A Photography Podcast covers photography for everyone, whether you're a pro, an amateur, a hobbyist or you just like the art form. Hosts Mez and Toby discuss all aspects of the medium and the people that define it, and try to make sense of the weird and wonderful culture and business that surrounds it. This is not a wanky, ego-driven lecture. It’s fun, it’s kinda deep sometimes, and it's all-inclusive.

Chemistry teacher by day, epic street photographer by night, Knox Bertie has been obsessed with capturing the rarest moments in Sydney since he arrived from Canada more than a decade ago. His dark and sometimes dystopian images hint at his love for George Orwell and also show a side of the city that nobody expects, far from the blue skies and sandy beaches its the eastern suburbs. Such is the high calibre of Knox's work, it prompte...
Mez and Toby take a deep dive into the mysterious world of NFTs and have a thoroughly fungible time dissecting the art world's latest foray into the world of technology, looking at what it means for photography, the industry in general, and the well-being of our planet.

It's time to put on your best threads because Mez and Toby are going to take you for a walk down the red carpet. Yep, that's right, we're going to the movies!! There have been many photography-related flicks released over the years, and the coronavirus shutdown has given us all time to watch a few of them. So sit back and relax as we take you through some of our favourites.
As photographers, we know all about ISO! That's why living in it is NO EXCUSE for letting your gear gather dust while you sit on your butt eating chips and watching rubbish on TV. Mez and Toby have been inspired by a bunch of inspiring ideas from photographers and film-makers they follow, and they throw out a few other ideas to keep you busy while the lockdown lingers. Take it all in, and let the creative juices flow!!
PANDEMIC!!!!! Yep, we're living it, but while the coronavirus crisis has brought down the world's economy, it hasn't stop Mez and Tobes putting together a podcast without breaking any distancing laws!! (Sorry about the temporarily iffy production values as a result.) But that economy could be crucial for a lot of photographers and other visual media creatives, so we've put together a little advice for Aussies to help them get throu...

Let's talk about sex, baby .... Mez and Toby deep dive into a discussion about gender in photography that takes more twists and turns than an Agatha Christie novel. Speaking of novel, even coronavirus gets a mention as photojournalism, fashion, wedding and all other manner of photographic genres go under the biggest gender-bias microscope in the southern hemisphere.

Gaining consent isn't easy, especially when the subject you're looking to film or photograph is in a heightened state of distress. In this episode, Mez and Toby welcome Sean Brokenshire to the CCBB studio to discuss the intricacies of "informed consent".

Still on the topic of photography competitions, Mez and Toby zero in on the entrants, and boy oh boy, are there some stories to be told here. It seems there are no limits to the lengths some people will go to in order to get ahead in the game, from the smallest comps to the most prestigious in the photography world. When money and prestige is the reward, play gets dirty very quickly, and even anteaters aren't safe!! What? Trust us ...
There is nothing like a healthy dose of competition — unless that competition is trying to steal your content for nothing!! Whaaaat!!??
In this episode, Mez and Toby look at the sometimes hazardous world of photography competitions, discussing the pros and cons for photographers who are thinking of entering their work. Much skullduggery is unearthed.

What do Beyonce and Donald Trump's impeachment hearings have in common? Well, both are watched by millions and both have been shot by photographers using film cameras. But why would anyone use a film camera in those situations?

Say what!!?? Yep, and that's just one incident!! The digital age has made this an all-too common occurrence, so listen in as Mez and Toby arm y...
It sounds like the next big hipster band name, but The Comparison Complex is something that actually lasts, and it can also make or break your creativity. That's why it's complex!! Mez and Toby discuss not only the dangers of comparing your work and yourself to others, but also the positive explosions that can go off when you nail this whole comparison thing. Do you panic about low like-counts, falling followers, not having cool id...
