Antony Magne, 33, a native of Aix-en-Provence in the South-East of France, started his exploration of New York City in 2005.
This was the beginning of his love affair with the Big Apple... Working in France as a "collabo d'archi" (architect associate), Magne learned design using Photoshop, Premiere, and After Effect. After 3 years of apprenticeship, he freelanced as a filmmaker shooting BMX pro riders. Magne’s career further unfolded while shooting for websites and DVD magazines therefore leading him into the world of music. This included collaborating with The Starving Burgers and Grossomodo/Goliath Entertainment.
Although video was his dominant medium, still photography emerged as extra media content for many of his reports. The camera is now Magne’s principal instrument that documents his frequent travels throughout many American cities and abroad. The camera allows him to capture a moment, to be a witness of life, to seize the day. This is the objective of CARPEDIEMCREA.
