About --
Lowell Bennett provides content, images and
communications consulting services to clients in
publishing and a wide range of other industries
around the world.
Bennett's focus is
currently on editorial, photography and agency
services as practiced in
China and
Southeast Asia, including photo projects
featuring
Laos,
Hanoi,
Malaysia,
Borneo,
Thailand and
Sumatra. All of
the images, some of which have been licensed by
online and print publications, can be viewed at
Vivid East.com. A few thousand photos of China
are linked at
See PRC.com. Images from a few select locations
in Southeast Asia can be viewed at the expanding
galleries of
See Southeast Asia.com.
Beijing / China --
A project nearing
completion and set for early 2012 publication is a
book of photography and writing on the modern and
increasingly cosmopolitan metropolis of Beijing.
That work, written under contract, is tentatively
entitled:
BEIJING INTERNATIONAL
An Ancient Capital's Renaissance in the Age of
Globalization
Advance excerpts are
available for publication subject to publishing
house approval. The project's 240 images are posted
on a non-public, non-search-indexed web gallery and
may be viewed by
request.
Capping 4.5 years in
China, Bennett's recent portfolio project,
audio-captioned images presented in slide show
fashion, is here:
See PRC.com. Nine galleries dedicated
to Tibet are indexed at
See Tibet.net, and eight galleries on China's
mainly Muslim far west are at
See Xinjiang.com. Muslim people and places
in China and Southeast Asia can be seen at
Muslim East.com.
Photography / Southeast Asia --
Ongoing and expanding
website projects, galleries and nonprofit
tourism-related business support services in
Malaysia and Indonesia, can be viewed at:
See Langkawi.com, and
See Sumatra.com, respectfully. Seven
historic sites of Ayutthaya, the ancient capital of
Siam (Krung Tai), the north of Thailand and the
south are at
See Siam.com.
Laos, primarily Luang Prabang, is at
See LP.com. All are linked at
See Southeast Asia.com.
Website
Development / SEO --
The native English writer
and photographer is not
primarily a website developer. The few linked
client websites include photo galleries, online
forms and varying portfolio functions, but the sites
omit flashier elements. The visible content, copy
and HTML code within Bennett's websites were written in
large part for search engine optimization (SEO), and the
sites rank fairly high in relevant keyword searches and
do business, but they do not visually dazzle. And that's
by design. See
sample websites.
Writing / Journalism --
Although the writer
does not consider himself to be a journalist or
reporter, he is currently trying to figure out what
to do with
China Correspondent.com. Press writings,
including magazine articles, industry reports,
societal commentary and editorials, as well as more
mercenary content generated on a freelance and
contract basis, are among the
China articles and in the older
press
release archives.
Links to ad copy,
scripts, a prospectus, a feasibility study, sales
letters, marketing letters, brochures, press
releases, damage control, proposals, strategic
writings, translations,
screenplays and varied other PR, marketing and
freelance media content can be accessed
here.
For the writer's fee
and payment policies, please see the
Rates & Estimate page.
