Joanne’s compassion, inclusivity, and humility are hallmarks in all that she does, and is particularly evident in the platform she has built. In her words, “We all have the potential to remove ourselves from the centre of any circle and to expand a sphere of compassion outward; to include everyone interested in mobile art, ensuring every artist is within reach”, she has said.
Promotion of mobile artists and the art form as a primary medium in today’s art world, has become her life’s focus. She has presented lectures bolstering mobile artists and their art from as far away as the Museum of Art in Seoul, South Korea to closer to her home in the UK at Focus on Imaging. Her experience as a jurist for mobile art competitions includes: Portugal, Canada, US, S Korea, UK and Italy. And her travels pioneering the breadth of mobile art includes key events in: Frankfurt, Naples, Amalfi Coast, Paris, Brazil, London.

The online gallery specialises in prints for discerning collectors of unique, previously unseen signed limited edition art.
Her journey towards becoming The App Whisperer, includes (but is not limited to) working for a paparazzi photo agency for several years and as a deputy editor for a photo print magazine.

Fantastic! I’m in!!
slp
Exciting. Hmm…
Mike
Hmmm. A ‘forced’ purchase of a specific app to enter. A joint venture between Olloclip, Cinamatic and App Whisperer disguised as a juried competition maybe? Its only 2 bucks but come on now! At least report it for what it is.
Mike
PS: I have nothing against an alliance, just the mandatory purchase to enter.
Joanne Carter
Thank you Mike for your comment, I appreciate your viewpoint but this is not how this competition has been set up. We felt that the ‘prize’ of having your video featured in Snap magazine would suffice. We have actually given away many of these apps in recent give ways, we’ll see if we can giveaway some more. It’s also free to enter this competition but there’s also no obligation to do so.

A Cinamatic video using an Olloclip! Seems that without is ok for entry as well if I understand correctly?
Joanne Carter
Hi MaryJane, you can use an Olloclip yes to capture the movie if you like – with or without we don’t mind at all.
Leslie
Do the videos need to be just cinamatic, or can they include still shots and cinamatic, made into a video with something like iMovie for IOS?
Joanne Carter
Hi Leslie, just Cinamatic in this case please, hope that’s ok.

Can they be Cinamatic AND another app, like Videohance, Movie Looks, etc.? Especially since C now has import, it seems that instead of shooting with only C you could shoot with anything and import into C, so can we export from C into others, too?
Joanne Carter
Hi Diana, no just Cinamatic for this competition – really sorry!
