The Lens Blog is a part of the New York Times website. It focuses on photography in all different aspects, from wars to natural disasters to tasteful pop culture. In the blog entry, "Actors Create 14 Decisive Moments," there are short clips of different talented actors directed by Solve Sundsbo. "What kind of story can be told in just one minute?" Going into the photo shoot, the director explained to each of the actors--"You’re going from making iconic images to creating narratives, but there is less of a narrative capacity in 60 seconds, so you need to create something like a poem that can lead your imagination."
I feel like this blog depicts actors not just as your stereotypical actor, but as the artist behind that title. These photos serve as film stills from each 60 second story that the 14 actors create with no words, just music.
