Photographer Jacob Langvad » Visual Ethnography for International ...
Over the last couple of years, I’ve become somewhat of a specialist in a field of photography called visual ethnography. Through a growing number of qualitative research projects, I’ve documented youth culture and consumer behavior in developing countries. Typically, I work as part of a small team of field researchers contributing to the project with a compelling visual narrative. Our respondents can be town- or country-dwellers, and cover a variety of economic, social, political and ideological dimensions.
Benefiting greatly from a background as photojournalist and editorial photographer, I enjoy the fieldwork of meeting and documenting respondents’ everyday life and identifying signs of development over time. Our findings have proven to be extremely valuable for international brands aspiring for growth opportunities in emerging markets. Collectively, the projects I’m working on are putting a face on a new generation of global consumers and brings to light the differences and similarities across the world’s biggest, and fastest growing emerging markets, who collectively stand poised to be the world’s super-powers of tomorrow.
To sustain and accelerate growth in emerging markets, international brands have to respond well to fragmented regional cultures and sub-cultures by constantly launching new, customized products and service offerings. The three examples below, show how visual ethnography can help international brands tap into their new consumers.
The Brazilian Dream Brazil has jokingly been called “the country of the future and always will be”. But provided by a decade of economic growth, today it has reached an unprecedented moment in its history: the moment where it stands as a major world player. ‘ O Sonho Brasileiro ‘ (The Brazilian Dream) is an extensive, qualitative study of the young Brazilian generation, who is the first to live in a hyper-connected world, and in a period of significant economic growth. The focus for this study is to understand this generation, its values, dreams and desires.
The study is based on 1,200 interviews with 18-24 year old Brazilians across the country and from all social groups. I contributed to the project with visual ethnography from São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Recife and Porto Alegre. A pivotal part of the commission was a documentation of the 25 case-studies. I followed the respondents over time, and documented their lives in their own environments, including at home and with their families.
