SWTS: SirDork Interview – Learn About his Star Wars Fandom, His Toy Photography, and His Triple Force Friday Livestream Appearance

We finally did it! We actually interviewed someone, and while Nick
was only with us as a Force ghost, it felt good to branch out into
new territory to interview the one and only SirDork730 on IG, Jared
Middleton. https://youtu.be/QyneSlKC3vc Jared and I talked for an
hour and a half, and the conversation went in many different
directions. We started out by getting to know Jared as a Star Wars
fan first, there are other toy photography podcasts out there, so I
didn't want this to be just about shooting toys, so we explored his
passions as a Star Wars fan first. We then went into his journey
with toy photography, and how he went viral last December, and how
that has led to all sorts of cool opportunities in 2019. Jared
shares a few of his tips and tricks, and he lays down some key
advice for new toy photogs. During this segment, I had Jared share
three of his own shots. One had to be his first Star Wars toy shot,
the other a shot he felt his skills were improving, and finally, a
recent shot that he is proud of. Jared then shared three shots from
artists he looks up to, so we discuss what he liked in them, and
how they helped him become a better artist himself.
