"The World of Photography" by William Wegman and Michael Smith, scan from the VideoFest ‘92 program booklet.

Two conceptual artists of humour - Wegman and Michael Smith - have collaborated on this satire on photography, on the process of image-making, and the interchange of “high” art and “low” culture. The tape is structured as an instructional guide - “How to take pictures” - featuring Wegman as the professional photographer who takes the innocent Mike under his tutelage.
