Life and work
[edit | edit source]Pantall gained a BA in philosophy from the University of Bristol in 1986 and a MA in documentary photography from the University of Wales, Newport, in 2006,[3] where he studied under Ken Grant.[8]
He is a senior lecturer in photography at the University of South Wales in Newport, teaching on the documentary, and fashion and advertising courses.[3]
Pantall writes about photography for British Journal of Photography,[5][8][9][10][11] Royal Photographic Society's RPS Journal and Photo Eye. He has been a photography blogger since 2007.[6] Pete Brook, writing in Wired in 2010 about his blog, said that "Preoccupied with visual culture at large, Pantall draws frequent parallels to literature, television and film. The result is an eclectic exploration of what 'does and doesn't make photography work'."[6]
