About
As an active mature person, I am as passionate
about photography and cinema today, as I
was when beginning to explore those
areas in the late 1960s.
About my approach
I am attracted by various different types of subject matter,
styles and genres of photography. I like to "see" a picture, and then just take it as it is in the viewfinder. I much admire photographic work that stands on the merit of the original observation and the whole original viewfinder
composition, using the absolute minimum of post processing. It is something that I attempt
whenever I can.
Short Biography
I originally studied photography (and film) at the London College of Printing from 1968 to 1971, (now London College of Communication, part of University for The Arts, London.)
In my younger days I had some work published and a small amount of work exhibited, (The Photographers Gallery, London, Newcastle Arts Festival, UK, and a Ziff Davis supported
gallery exhibition, New York.)
Guest Speaker
"Mark Trompeteler's talk Digital Cinema gave us a superbly illustrated lecture on the history of cinemas in the UK, from the very early days,
to the most up to date digital and 3D technologies, Mark kept us spellbound."
I give Club, Group or Society photography or cinema themed talks, that may be a little different from the norm.

Consultancy
Since my retirement from full time paid employment, I have been undertaking some media and creative education consultancy work for the International Moving Image Society (IMIS),
which runs a UK Government approved Accreditation Scheme. IMIS, formally known as the British Kinematograph, Sound & Television Society, (BKSTS), based at the world famous Pinewood Studios,
is uniquely placed to assure, encourage, and support industry relevance in moving image and media production courses.
