Fraternities and sororities were on Buffalo Street. About the time the College started raising money to build the South Hill campus, I photographed all of the College s property, including a camp out in the Danby woods. It depends on how the final product is going to be used. I think most people are easy to photograph. But I found that working with famous people is easier than working with someone who hasn t had much experience in being photographed.
Famous people seem to know how to be helpful to the photographer.
What comes immediately to mind are some of my experiences shooting 16 mm films of IC football games. I remember a game in Wilkes-Barre where I started out shooting from the roof of a small, rickety press box. It began to rain buckets in the first quarter, and I shot the rest of the game on my knees, handholding my camera and packed into the tiny press box with the announcers and coaches. There was a great big telephone pole right in front of me, and I had to duck around that half of the time. At Ithaca College we tried to build better facilities for making football movies.
