Doesn't have to be an artist, It can be a Photographer, videographer, etc...

Personally I'm really into Dave Hill's stuff right now.

Scott Stulberg is also really inspiring

Netsky/Brookes Brothers/Danny Byrd/High Contrast and more. their songs always put me in a good mood. Something about liquid DnB puts me in a mood other music can't.

My favorite videographers Kevin Steen and Michael Clarke. Always put out amazing stuff and their videos are the driving force for me wanting to go to film school.

I also like some of the music videos that Ian Wolfson and Zia Mohajerjasbi hasve made, both are very talented at what they do.

frank miller as a comic book artist played a massive role in my final project for my gcse art (SATs??) for sure one of my favourit artists and his style is so graphically pleasing, obviousl sin city is one of my favourite films.

Most recently I came across this project:


I haven't even looked into what camera crew is creating this.

Overall this whole project inspires me, the camera work, the family, the idea. It gives me butterflies in my stomach, such a strong story. Cant wait to see the final piece.

Martin Venezky. I got to spend a couple hours having lunch and talking with him when I was in school. Imagine your professor coming to you one day and asking if you would like to hang for a couple hours with your favorite skier of all time.

I like David Carson, Wolfgang Weingart, a couple other of the old guys too.

I don't have a favorite photographer. some of Annie Leibovitz' work is pretty inspiring to me.

Favorite musicians would be Thom Yorke, Trent Reznor, Jesse Lacey, Aesop Rock, and a handful of others - but I pull so much inspiration from music that in general it's hard to have favorite musicians.

His photography is amazing. These timelapses he put on vimeo are incredible. So relaxing and peaceful to watch.

Here is one of them and I encourage you to watch them all

As cliche as it is, Ansel Adams landscape work is unreal. Definitely something I look to all the time.

A bunch of skate photogs too. Pommier, Atiba, Blabac, other guys I'm forgetting.

And all sorts of random dudes I find who are my age and shoot stuff I could never dream of.
